Presence

Presence is an innovative and creative horror/thriller that offers a unique twist by presenting the entire story from the first-person perspective of the ghost haunting a house. The film immerses the audience in the spirit’s point of view, showcasing how the ghost interacts with the family living in the house and how they must come to terms with its presence.


What stands out is that the ghost isn’t portrayed as a villain, but more as a vigilante with good intentions, trying to protect those who inhabit the house. Its actions, though unconventional, come from a place of care and protectiveness, giving the ghost a surprising depth and personality.


Viewing the family’s dynamics from the perspective of one of the girls in the household is captivating and draws you deeper into the narrative. It creates an immersive experience where you feel like you’re living the story alongside the characters.


Steven Spielberg’s direction shines in this film, making you fully embody the ghost’s presence and truly feel its impact on the family. The creativity and innovative approach to storytelling make Presence stand out in the genre, earning a solid four stars for its originality and immersive experience.
