Just heard about this movie in an advertisement tonight.

Night is going to host Sixth Sense being aired on ABC monday night and they will show a new trailer. There is one on the site though already.

Looks good!

This movie should be interesting. I've liked all M. Night Shyamalan's movies. This is one I will probably check out.

Ooh! Creepy!

Do we know a release date yet?

I'm kind of wondering whether this is his way of doing a fantasy movie but sneaking it in under the radar - much like he did with Unbreakable and comic book superheroes.

Maybe it's just a question of what they've showed in the previews, but so far they seem to be awfully vague as to when and where this story takes place, making me wonder just what it is we're not being shown. (aside from strange creatures lurking in the woods)

Hopefully, it won't just be Signs redux, with spindly things lurking in the shadows for 90% of the movie, and a minor letdown when you actually see them on-screen.

[Mr. Burns] Excellent... [/Mr. Burns]

I've really enjoyed his other movies so this one will be checked out in the theatre by me and the missus.

I think mmu1 is right - this will be a fantasy movie done his way.

Cool.

I liked Sixth Sense, even though I figured out the "twist" right off. It was not that hard to figure out. I HATED Signs.

Judging from his other movies, it will probably be set in a modern-day suburb of Philidelphia.


Signs wasn't really about aliens, it was about Mel Gibson's character. Although for the first half of the movie that isn't really apparent.

Heh. Actually, the answer was easy enough to find... Yahoo Movies says rural Pennsylvania, 1897. Well, that's one strike against it, I thought it was going to be more interesting than that. He's starting to get much too formulaic.
