In his follow up to THE SIXTH SENSE, writer/director M. Night Shyamalan has created another unique suspense thriller. Bruce Willis again stars, this time as David Dunn, the sole survivor of a devastating train wreck. Samuel L Jackson co-stars as Elijah Price, a mysterious stranger who offers a bizarre explanation as to why David escaped without a single scratch, an explanation that threatens to change David's family and life forever.
The majority of the film was shot in Philadelphia which is Shyamalan's hometown as were both WIDE AWAKE and THE SIXTH SENSE.
