About as good as horror films get

Rating: 9/10 (8 August 1999)

I concur with the majority of comments thus far: The Sixth Sense is an outstanding example of the horror genre. Like The Shining, it is genuinely creepy, but like The Dead Zone, it retains its humanity; the combination makes it so affecting.
I was worried that the trailers had tipped too much, but I was wrong. While I could have done without them, in the end they did little to dilute the pleasure and power of this fine film. Even if you are not usually inclined to view horror films, or Bruce Willis films, for that matter, I highly recommend that you catch The Sixth Sense soon, in a real theater, with an audience. It is well worth your time.
