"I See Dead People"

Hello Friends,

After a small vacation, I'm back. Today let's talk about a film that wasn't too scary but it resonated with millions of people and gave audiences one of the most quotable movies lines ever......" I see Dead People"


Before The Sixth Sense was released in 1999, very little people knew who M. Night Shyamalan was but he was about to explode due to this films high praise and box office gold. This film was one of four horror films to be nominated for Best Picture at the Oscars, the others being The Exorcist, Jaws and Silence of The Lambs. 


The film centers around Malcom Crowe, a child psychologist, who receives an award on the same night that he is visited by a very unhappy ex-patient. After this encounter, Crowe takes on the task of curing a young boy with the same illness as the ex-patient. The  boy claims he  "sees dead people". Crowe is the last hope for the young boy, named Cole, as his mother is at her wits end with his constant obsession with death.


If you haven't seen this film, I sincerely hope you've been living in the wilderness or under a rock for many many years because that is the only exception for not seeing this movie! It is full of twist and turns and spine tingling frights. I also hope someone hasn't spoiled the ending for you, but if they did still see this movie.


Now moving on to M.Night Shyamalan, the director and writer of this film. To say that this was his Citizen Kane, the famous Orson Welles film that was his regarded as his best work and could never top it , is an understatement. With all the success came the inevitable question: What will be next from M. Night Shyamalan? Now I liked Signs and Lady in the Water but none compare to The Sixth Sense.

This film set the bar for horror films to come, a quite frankly, none have quite matched it as of yet. 

Thanks guys for reading!
