The Sixth Sense Questions

Bring on the tough stuff. There’s not just one right answer.

  1. Why put a psychologist, a single mom, and a little kid at the center of a horror film?
  2. Do you find Cole's turnaround at school toward the end believable or a bit sudden?
  3. Is it possible to enjoy the movie a second time, after learning the big twist?
  4. What exactly happens to Cole in the crawl space? How does the door end up locked?
  5. Why do you think Cole's relationship with teacher Stanley suddenly gets better midway through the film?
  6. We know that Cole is able to turn his life around by listening to the ghosts. What do you think happens if/when he can't help them?
  7. Malcolm eventually achieves peace/resolution at the end of the movie, but what about Vincent's resolution? Do you think he ever got his?
