How To Watch Every M. Night Shyamalan Movie (Including Old)

As M. Night Shyamalan adds another thriller to his filmography, here’s where to watch all of his movies, including Old. Shyamalan is one of the most significant directors in Hollywood that is known for creating cultural talking points. Nearly all of his movies feature a major twist in the plot or sinister events that stick in the audience’s minds, the most notable twist coming from his Academy Award Best Picture-nominated movie The Sixth Sense.

Among Shyamalan’s filmography, both made and unmade, are horror thrillers like The Sixth Sense, The Village, Signs, The Visit, and Split. He also has several sci-fi thrillers like Unbreakable, Glass, After Earth, and Lady in the Water. Some of his outliers include kid-friendly fantasy and drama movies The Last Airbender and his second film Wide Awake. Old (2021) is a thriller about a family that goes on a vacation to a hidden beach area, quickly discovering that the beach causes the characters to age rapidly and experience an entire life in a single day.

Even if Shyamalan’s movies aren’t well-received or award-winners, they still become topics of conversation and a fun experience as audiences wait for his signature twist. If interested in revisiting his best twists, scariest moments, or mind-bending plots, here is how and where to watch every single feature film by M. Night Shyamalan.

M. Night Shyamalan’s least-known movie is his independent directorial debut, Praying With Anger (1992).

According to Reelgood, the movie isn’t available to stream, rent, or buy anywhere, so Shyamalan fans will have to wait until a service picks it up.
