Split
Kevin has 23 distinct personalities. The 24th is about to be unleashed.
Directed by M. Night Shyamalan
Produced by Blinding Edge Pictures, Blumhouse Productions
A tense psychological thriller that weaponizes mental illness as a horror premise, building dread through the fragmentation of a single consciousness and the vulnerability of captive victims.
Though Kevin has evidenced 23 personalities to his trusted psychiatrist, Dr. Fletcher, there remains one still submerged who is set to materialize and dominate all the others. Compelled to abduct three teenage girls led by the willful, observant Casey, Kevin reaches a war for survival among all of those contained within him — as well as everyone around him — as the walls between his compartments shatter apart.
