New on DVD: 'Happening,' 'Zohan'

"The Happening"

M. Night Shyamalan is a storyteller whose latest film finds a mysterious gas being released in New York, which causes people to become disoriented and commit suicide. The mystery expands to other parts of the northeast, including Boston and Philadelphia, where science teacher Elliot Moore (Mark Wahlberg) fears something is wrong.

Fearing a bio-terrorist attack, people panic and flee. Moore, along with three others, escapes by train, but they're stranded in a rural community. They have lost contact with everyone, and after the storm ends, they try to find out what is happening around them.

This is a science-fiction film that has suspense, drama and a message.

"You Don't Mess With The Zohan"

Adam Sandler stars as an Israeli secret agent with physical skills and special powers. He wants to be a hair stylist, so he fakes his own death with his arch-enemy The Phantom (John Turturo), and heads to New York. He changes his appearance and goes to work for a Palestinian hairdresser (Emanuelle Chriqul). He takes care of the older ladies in the salon in many different ways. The Phantom is in New York, and the two are in their own war games. There are sight gags and laughs, but it all comes together in the end, when Arabs and Israelis are united against a land tycoon (Michael Buffer) who wants to tear down their retail shops and put up a mall.
