A successful update of ghost stories and thrillers that forego gore and violence to create suspense.

Rating: 8/10 (30 June 2010)

A Philadelphia child psychologist (Bruce Willis) struggles to save his marriage as he treats a disturbed young boy (Haley Joel Osment) who can see the dead. The film was #71 on Bravo's 100 Scariest Movie Moments, for the scene where Cole encounters a female ghost in his tent.
The Sixth Sense is a smashing debut from a director who failed to live up to this early promise. A fascinating, haunting film with genuine power and presence. Willis and young Osment carry off the leading roles with aplomb; the story is challenging and unpredictable. The line "I see dead people" from the film became a popular catchphrase after its release, reaching #44 on AFI's 100 Years... 100 Movie Quotes.
