#14: The Sixth Sense (1999)
M. Night Shyamalan always shocks us; that’s his specialty. But The Sixth Sense is his masterclass in quiet tension. Bruce Willis plays a psychologist helping a boy who whispers, “I see dead people.” That single line entered pop culture forever. The film’s beauty lies in restraint; it doesn’t frighten, it chills. When the ending reveals the truth, it’s the shock that hits you, and then it provokes pure sadness.
