How to Watch Trap and More M. Night Shyamalan Movies Online

M. Night Shyamalan movies are known for their twists. Whether it’s the truth about the “I see dead people” line in The Sixth Sense or that Split was part of Shyamalan’s superhero trilogy of Unbreakable/Split/Glass all along, the filmmaker is a master of the plot twist and didn’t-see-it-coming endings across such films as Unbreakable (2000), Signs (2002), The Village (2004), The Visit (2015), Old (2021), and Trap (2024).

The twist? Many of these Shyamalan movies are available to stream in the same place. The M. Night Shyamalan Spotlight, part of the No Sleep October Collection on Max, is a seven-movie collection that includes the Shyamalan-produced Caddo Lake (starring Dylan O’Brien) and The Watchers (directed by Ishana Night Shyamalan).

Below, we’ve rounded up all the ways to stream M. Night Shyamalan’s best movies, from The Sixth Sense (1999) through Trap (2024).
