My guess is that this guy has politics on the brain and is reading a lot into a little.

I hope you're right. I'd like to see this film and just enjoy it without having to hunt for a not-so-hidden agenda.

I agree. Red is the color of blood, hence of war, revolution and . . . communism. It should be noted that Republicans did not choose the color for the "red states".

Same here. Judging from interviews with Shyamalan and the cast, the movie tries to take a critical stab at the commune phenomenon of the 19th century, and to ask hard questions about the meaning and usefulness of people's quest for utopia-not a very lefty sentiment.
