Rating: Null/10 (16 August 1999)

I read a lot about the movie being so slow paced and long...I think that this is a really great movie...someone wrote about this being similar to one of those Hitchcock thrillers...I totally agree.Its full of suspense...the kind of suspense that keeps building up until you are truly frightened. Jesus! Everything is hair raising in this one.The thing is though, that the long "prelude" to the action is definitely necessary, otherwise, we would not be so surprisingly scared when the "action" came along...it's a well told story.The kid is incredible...every emotion is displayed in him..fear, sadness, and despair. For those of you horror fans out there, this is the sort of movie that reminds us of the film "The Entity"....neither of them have to depend on special effects to give us a good scare, even though "The Entity" is far more terrifying, even more so under the assumption that its based on a true story.Either way, I believe The Sixth Sense is one of the best films of the year.You get some horror and a lot of suspense and drama.Believe me, that dark hallway in your house will seem far more darker and scarier once you see this one.
