Steven Soderbergh is already hard at work on his upcoming spy drama, Black Bag, starring Michael Fassbender and Cate Blanchett. But we’ve all been eagerly waiting for his latest film, Presence, since it premiered at Sundance earlier this year. Today, we got a chance to experience Soderbergh’s horror-thriller for the first time as American distributor Neon released an eerie first teaser trailer for the Lucy Liu starring movie. Check it out below:
The teaser and we share a common reaction – we’re both speechless! The trailer follows the trend of recent cryptic teasers for movies like Longlegs, Cuckoo, and The Substance. This one doesn’t give away much, but even though you may be left wondering what’s going on, it’s still effectively chilling. The use of negative space, the handheld camera, and the low rumble and piercing white noise all create a sense of unease.
The logline for the movie, written by David Koepp and co-starring Callina Liang, Julia Fox, Chris Sullivan, Eddy Maday, and West Mulholland, is just as enigmatic: “A family moves into a suburban house and becomes convinced they’re not alone.” While it may sound like standard horror fare, the twist is that the whole thing is shot from the titular entity’s point of view. This adds a unique perspective to the typical poltergeist movie.
Presence is currently set for a 17 January cinema release in the US, and we’ll bring you word on UK release plans as soon as they’re announced.
Conclusion
Steven Soderbergh’s latest film, Presence, has generated a lot of buzz with its eerie teaser trailer. With its unique perspective and use of negative space, this horror-thriller is sure to leave audiences on the edge of their seats. We can’t wait to see more of this film.
