“The Sixth Sense” & “Signs” To Be Re-Released In 4K On Digital & 4K UHD Blu-Ray
Disney has announced that it will be releasing two of M. Night Shyamalan’s classic movies, “The Sixth Sense” and “Signs”, for the first time ever in stunning 4K UHD digital on August 27th 2024, and 4K UHD Blu-ray disc on October 22nd 2024.
For this release, the original negatives for both films were scanned at 4K resolution and restored in High Dynamic Range (HDR).
Additionally, an exclusive bundle, including both films, along with Unbreakable, will also be available on August 27th 2024 at digital retailers.
Nominated for six Oscars, including best picture, “The Sixth Sense” is celebrating its 25th anniversary this month. It is known for one of the best plot twists in cinematic history.
Hollywood superstar Bruce Willis brings a powerful presence to an edge-of-your-seat thriller from writer-director M. Night Shyamalan (Oscar-nominee for Best Original Screenplay and Best Director) that critics are calling one of the greatest ghost stories ever filmed. When Dr. Malcolm Crowe (Willis), a distinguished child psychologist, meets Cole Sear (Oscar -nominee Haley Joel Osment, Best Supporting Actor), a frightened, confused, eight-year-old, Dr. Crowe is completely unprepared to face the truth of what haunts Cole. With a riveting intensity you’ll find thoroughly chilling, the discovery of Cole’s incredible sixth sense leads them to mysterious places with unforgettable consequences!
The cult sci-fi thriller, “Signs”, follows the Hess family in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, who wake up one morning to find a 500-foot crop circle in their backyard. Graham Hess (Mel Gibson) and his family are told extraterrestrials are responsible for the sign in their field. They watch, with growing dread, the news of crop circles being found all over the world. SIGNS is the emotional story of one family on one farm as they encounter the terrifying last moments of life as the world is being invaded.
Roger’s Take: It’s always good when a studio goes back and re-releases classic films in as high a quality as possible and hopefully at some point in the future, once the physical and digital releases are history, the films will also be upgraded on Disney+.
