About

Just over a year after the runaway success of his previous effort, The Sixth Sense, Oscar-nominated writer/director M. Night Shyamalan decided to follow it up with this genuinely unique thriller which had decent reviews and solid box office but was considered a bit of a disappointment mainly because the story was not at all what many audiences expected.  However over time, it developed enough of a following that the filmmaker evetually decided to make a proper sequel.  This is the strange tale of David Dunn (Bruce Willis), a mild-mannered security officer who has just survived a horrific train crash.  No one really understands why or how he was the ONLY survivor of an incident which resulted in the deaths of every one else on board, except......one eccentric comic book art collected/store owner named Elijah Price (Samuel) who might have a theory.  Their lives become intertwined and what results is a genuinely original tale of good and evil.
