M. Night Shyamalan isn’t quite the name he was in the years after The Sixth Sense, but he’s still one of the few writer/directors who you can sell a film on the strength of their name. That certainly seems true of The Visit, which wants to suggest it’ll take us back to the world of twisty-turny thrillers he’s known for.
Here’s the synopsis: ‘Writer/director/producer M. Night Shyamalan (The Sixth Sense, Signs, Unbreakable) and producer Jason Blum (Paranormal Activity, The Purge and Insidious series) welcome you to Universal Pictures’ The Visit. Shyamalan returns to his roots with the terrifying story of a brother and sister who are sent to their grandparents’ remote Pennsylvania farm for a weeklong trip. Once the children discover that the elderly couple is involved in something deeply disturbing, they see their chances of getting back home are growing smaller every day.’
Now the first poster and trailer have arrived, which you can see above and below. It’ll be out in UK cinemas September 11th.
