There's a new horror film on the horizon that has everyone buzzing with excitement. The first trailer for Steven Soderbergh's latest creation, Presence, has just been released and it's already receiving high praise with a 92% score on Rotten Tomatoes. Known for his previous hits like Magic Mike and Ocean's Eleven, Soderbergh has once again graced us with his talent, this time in the form of a haunted house thriller.
The movie, which stars Lucy Liu and Julia Fox, made its debut at Sundance Film Festival earlier this year and is set to hit theaters on January 24, 2025. The plot follows a family who moves into a new house only to discover that they are not alone. A sinister presence lurks within the walls, creating a spine-tingling experience for viewers. Soderbergh has taken a unique approach by framing the movie from the perspective of the ghost, making for a truly haunting experience.
Although the teaser released today was short, it still managed to send shivers down everyone's spine. Set to chilling music, the 49-second clip showed a camera slowly zooming out from the driveway and panning up through the window and around the room. It gave viewers a taste of what's to come without giving away too much.
The official synopsis reads, "A family moves into a suburban house and becomes convinced they're not alone," leaving much to the imagination. But despite the lack of details, critics have already started raving about Soderbergh's latest masterpiece. Meagan Navarro from Bloody Disgusting praised the film, saying, "Presence pulls you in, terrifies you, then leaves your heart on the floor." And she's not the only one.
Bilge Ebiri of Vulture called it an "art film that also works as a spellbinding horror film," while the Financial Times' Nicolas Rapold applauded Soderbergh's direction and the performances of the talented ensemble cast. ScreenRant's Brittany Patrice Witherspoon also chimed in, calling it a "shattering mystery about instinct" that will send chills down your spine. And Tomris Laffly from Harper's Bazaar added that the film is "chilling in its freewheeling camerawork and unexpectedly heartbreaking."
With such high praise from critics, it's no wonder that fans are eagerly anticipating the release of Presence. While we still have some time to wait, the film is sure to be worth it. So mark your calendars for January 24, 2025, when this haunting tale will hit theaters.
