Glass paired with Unbreakable and Spilt wraps up Shyamalan’s ode to comic books trilogy. It picks up a few weeks after the events of Split, and fifteen years after the Unbreakable.

Split (2016) – M. Night Shyamalan
It’s been awhile since I watched a Shyamalan film. I kind of tuned out after awhile. I think Lady in the Water did it for me. But I did remember enjoying his earliest films, The Sixth Sense, The Village, Unbreakable. And it seemed like enough time had past that I could see if I could…
After Earth (2013) – M. Night Shyamalan
So my time with Shyamalan comes to an end with this last title, and while I am loving the Sci-Fi Chronicles book, his past two titles were really tough to get through. And before I get into the film itself, what was up with the really weird accents in this film? I couldn’t even…
The Happening (2008) – M. Night Shyamalan
The Sci-Fi Chronicles continues its foray into the works of M.

I think, this one would have worked so much better as a novel, expand out the characters, add a…
Unbreakable (2000) – M. Night Shyamalan

Signs (2002) – M. Night Shyamalan
The 101 Sci-Fi Movies list is drawing to an end, and it allowed me to rewatch M. Night Shyamalan’s Signs with Mel Gibson. It’s easy to jump right to the end, and complain about the idea that if these aliens were so afraid of water, apparently it can kill them… why take a chance…
The Sixth Sense (1999) – M. Night Shyamalan
The 101 Horror Movies list has brought me to The Sixth Sense. A film that no matter what you think of Shyamalan’s later work, still stands as a fantastic little spooky tale, undeniably a classic ghost story. Bruce Willis stars as Malcolm Crowe a psychologist who has a troubling confrontation in his home with a…
