Presence, the new film by Steven Soderbergh, turns the haunted house story on its head. Most movies about ghosts keep the spirit hidden, showing their manifestations in fleeting moments that leave the audience just as scared and confused as the characters. In Presence, following David Koepp’s script, Soderbergh reveals the ghost’s nature in the very first shot. It takes away the jump scares of a typical horror film, but Presence is creepy when i…

Steven Soderbergh talks new ghost story 'Presence' and mastering the art of failure

In Steven Soderbergh's supernatural thriller Presence, a family finds they aren't alone in their new house. It's a ghost story told masterfully from the ghost's point of view.

In this haunted house horror you see what the ghost sees — and it's terrifying

The camera is the ghost in Steven Soderbergh’s chillingly effective, experiential haunted house drama “Presence.” The filmmaker traps the audience in a beautiful suburban home, letting us drift through rooms with this curious being, in and out of delicate conversations as we (and the ghost) try to piece together a puzzle blindly. Often in haunted house movies where a new family moves in and starts sensing strange things, the ghost knows exactly …

Presence Post Credits: Is There a Scene at the End?

Sometimes what’s absent from a film defines it as much as what’s present. Negative space is the great underused resource in filmmaking. It demands that you trust your audience to follow along, to fill in every intentional gap, to pick up the meaning of every invisible whisper.

Steven Soderbergh's ‘Presence’ is a stylish, experimental ghost story

Steven Soderbergh's horror film “The Presence” has been released in Russia. Horror has a standard beginning for the genre: the family arrives at a suspicious house where something otherworldly seems to live. But closer to the end, the film suddenly turns out to be a drama about violence. Film critic Elena Smolina talks about how the director has once again rethought the classical genre.

В российский прокат вышел фильм ужасов Стивена Содерберга «Присутствие». У хоррора стандартное для жанра начало: семья приезжает в подозрительный дом, где, кажется, живет нечто потустороннее. Но ближе к финалу фильм вдруг оказывается драмой о насилии. О том, как режиссер в очередной раз переосмыслил классический жанр, рассказывает кинокритик Елена Смолина.
