There is no such agency as the Bucks County Police. All towns in Bucks County, and almost all of Pennsylvania for that matter, are served by either local police, regional police, or the Pennsylvania State Police, never by county police or sheriff's offices (which are restricted to court-related duties). The only county police force in Pennsylvania, the Allegheny County PD, is on the other side of the state from Doylestown, and furthermore, is restricted to providing law enforcement services only on county property.

First time I saw this movie as it was pretty new. Back then I didn't like it much and the only thing I remembered was, that it was pretty boring to watch. Now I thought of giving it a second chance. But still Signs doesn't get me at all. The acting and especially the dialogues are weird and during most of the time nothing happens in this movie. Graham and Merrill just appear a little dumb, but the way they treat the two children on the other hand is presented very heart warming. Yes, at the end we see one of the aliens, but again, it seems like this movie was not really trying to provoke a deeper reaction from the audience. Signs is well shot, but the story lacks excitement and the main characters, who are usually great actors, seem totally out of place in this one. If you haven't seen it, you won't miss out.
