Although you may not be familiar with the name M. Night Shyamalan (I’m not sure how that’s possible but i suppose it could happen), you have to know at least one of the movies on his list of hits:
- The Last Airbender
- Signs
- The Sixth Sense
- The Village
- The Happening
- Afterearth
- Unbreakable
- The Visit
- Devil
- Lady in the Water
But not all of his films are included in the horror/suspense genre. Here’s two movies that totally took me by surprise as being his work:
- Stuart Little
- She’s All That
Yeah I know, unbelievable right?
Well, if you loved any of those movies, here’s another one of his thrillers to check out.
SPLIT
STARRING JAMES MCAVOY AS KEVIN
Though Kevin (James McAvoy) has evidenced 23 personalities to his trusted psychiatrist, Dr. Fletcher (Betty Buckley), there remains one still submerged who is set to materialize and dominate all of the others. Compelled to abduct three teenage girls led by the willful, observant Casey, Kevin reaches a war for survival among all of those contained within him — as well as everyone around him — as the walls between his compartments shatter.
This movie will keep you on the edge of your seat. As you meet the various personalities, you become more and more drawn into the dark and twisted world and mind of Kevin.
For me, it enthralls me just because I like the suspense, the unknown, and the strange behavior of people. I want to know the hows and whys of their unusual actions. What makes them go from being an average child into the person they’ve become.
So if you enjoy a dark thriller that makes you stop and question the recesses of the human mind, this movie is for you. Enjoy!
