Ghostly influence resides in Steven Soderbergh's latest horror film set in a haunted house
On the horizon of the cinematic world, a fresh take on horror is brewing. "Presence," directed by Oscar-winning filmmaker Steven Soderbergh (Traffic) and written by acclaimed screenwriter David Koepp (Jurassic Park, Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull), is set to be released on January 24.
This film offers a unique twist on the haunted house genre, as it tells the story from the perspective of the ghost itself. The spectral entity in "Presence" is described as suffering, lurking and hovering around the family that moves into its turf. However, it remains unclear if the ghost shows itself at all in the movie.
"Presence" is associated with some of the most popular franchises in entertainment, including Marvel, Star Wars, Star Trek, DC Universe, and Doctor Who, hinting at potential crossover elements or easter eggs for dedicated fans.
The voyeuristic, creeping camerawork is a key component in "Presence," adding to the suspense and fear. David Koepp, known for his work on horror films like Stir of Echoes and Secret Window, and Steven Soderbergh, who has demonstrated his directorial prowess in various genres, are expected to deliver a chilling cinematic experience.
The film stars an impressive ensemble cast, including Lucy Liu, Chris Sullivan, Callina Liang, Eddy Maday, West Mulholland, and Julia Fox. The trailer for "Presence" emphasizes the movie's scary elements, promising a thrilling ride for horror enthusiasts.
While details about the plot and characters are scarce, the mystery only adds to the anticipation. Stay tuned for more updates on this intriguing horror project that promises to shift the perspective on the genre.
