If you're curious how Soderbergh shot this - it's a Sony A9iii with a 14mm lens on a gimbal. He walked around the house in slippers and shot long continuous takes. Mostly natural light.
i love these trailers that don't show a single scary thing. im ready to be scared at the cinema, not while watching the trailer on the waiting room of my doctor's office
@@Lamidemonami7891if i was scared by skinamarink, would i find this movie scary? it doesn’t really seem all that interesting or creepy and the camera work seems like a gimmick more than anything else
Basically, an "entity" follows normal family, with their own rea life issues, struggles, then the "entity" gets bored and decides to have fun and it is so generous, decides to include the family too 👌
I’m calling it. We are in the perspective of the ghost, like the killer in In a Violent Nature, but there is a twist: one of the family members will be the PRESENCE by the end of the film, like The Bent-Neck Lady from The Haunting of Hill House. By the way, this aligns very much with Lucy Liu's old interview about her intimate ghost experiences.
def ghost story from ghosts POV - sharing the horror in voieover or someone who can see them - gives sooo much freedom to cam work to have a FIRST person POV option AS the thing creating the scare i get why they say it 'redfines cinema' or whatever, this and Heretic are gonna be BANGERS
Same thoughts I have, definitely heavy In a Violent Nature energy here. I’m just hoping they go all the way with the concept because In a Violent Nature didn’t for the most part, not a bad movie but missed potential out the ass man.
@@robbenton9470Probably from people who were able to see it in a prescreening. A few commenters on here have already prescreened it and said it was from the ghost POV. They also added that the story it's self was good even without the irriness. Hope it's good.
@robbenton9470 Imo it's because the Camera always looks like it's looming over someone, watching the dude sleep, approaching someone from behind, even chasing one of them There's also two scenes of people seeming to notice the camera. One with the lady by the window, and the other with the approaching lady. Both times the camera backs away, like it's a person.
I don't know about that. He's been making movies for 35 years and some have been extremely mainstream. Maybe people in their 20s don't but I kinda refuse to believe from like 25 on don't know who he is.
people may not know him by name but everybody knows his movies, which is the case with many directors. u can ask any average person who watched dune who is the director and they can't name him

Soderberg is one of the few good American directors. He still knows how to make good films that convey their atmosphere through excellent camerawork and little or no background music - just like The Exorcist back in the day.
I wonder if they'll be running this here in Psycho City. Robert Altman's 'Short Cuts' has been playing at the cinema here since the 90s and still sells out on $2.50 Tuesdays. --Miss Minnie
im so excited for the new rollout of movies coming later this year and 2025….i notice most of them are from neon and a24. bravo. they had one goal “bring people back to the theatres”.
I'm ready & excited to see Soderberg give his take on inspiration from Gaspar Noe & Ari Aster. Once it's released likely something very different as well. Can't wait.
I’m getting some heavvvvy “In a Violent Nature” vibes as far as the perspective is switched from the humans to the monster or ghost and I really dig it. The problem with In a Violent Nature for me is that is was just not as engaging at times and definitely didn’t take advantage of the concept to its fullest while focusing on a very meh villain perspective. Jason or Michael are fun to watch from victim eyes for sure but seeing them walk everywhere and do things in a slow way with no extra flair to it really drags the movie down. THIS seems way more promising if that’s what we’re seeing in this perspective. I’m excited, this could be a banger for January
this looks great. I had an idea for a short film a couple months ago that had the idea of the ghost pov, which would be shot on a 9mm lens. I forgot about it up until I watched fallen angels not long ago. The camera work reminded me of the short film idea I had and when I started working on it. I wanted to check if its been done before, and then I see the teaser for this. idk if I should make it now bc people would think I copied this or whatever. The plot is different to mine but still similar yk.

I feel like overall Neon has been putting out some solid horror lately. My only thing is that the last two horror movies I’ve seen (Longlegs & Cuckoo) ended being a lot less scary than their trailers made them seem. Hopefully this one is genuinely scary.
@@asharpbrotha4324 everyone needs to stop believing that. people were let down by longlegs just because they kept calling it “the scariest movie ever” when every movie does that. i knew what i was expecting. i knew not to go in actually expecting the scariest movie ever. and i loved it. the same goes for every movie that has “the best movie of the summer” and shit like that. people take it too seriously.
@@yt.byliam Great point about Longlegs, I had a great time with it, and it terrified me, but I could definitely recognize that it wasn't that scary to many others. Different things terrify different people. It's very likely that Presence was the scariest movie they saw all year _for that reviewer_, but not necessarily for everyone.

I would be terrified if I saw Soderbergh walk around my house in slippers at night.
Feels like a spooky Terrence Malick movie!
You are the DP ?
@ he’s spoken about it and I saw the film at TIFF
Is the camera anamorphic or spherical?
Neon and A24 singlehandedly keeping original ideas alive in the film industry.
What an insult to all indie films,if ppl can be arsed to look theirs tons of original films released every year,and not by studios either
Don’t forget Warp Films, totally underrated
Don't forget indie films bro
@@philstone6129Maybe this person just doesn't know lol, but I agree all indie films just need a budget..some of them have interesting concept
They are just commercial companies

Yea cuz the film isn’t really horror, it’s a family drama filmed from the perspective of a ghost
Please don’t go in expecting to be scared, there’s really nothing like that in this film. It’s not attempting to be scary at all
@@Lamidemonami7891 well, in that case I might not go in at all cause I don't support false advertising lol

Is it scary?

Can you give me a little plot about this movie. I don't understand what's happening.

So my guess is it’s like A Ghost Story, we are in the eyes of the ghost moving around 🤷♂️
Really? You still have to guess ? It almost thrown in our face 😅
Yes, but A Ghost Story is superb filmmaking and here someone was just playing with a gimbal and an lazy script.
Very good trailer!! I’m all in I don’t need to see anything more.
Yes it is. I mean the trailer
Soderbergh also did The Knick... Short series, but worth every moment.
I freakin’ LOVED that series! Then it was axed!
Soderbergh is one of the best directors working today that most people have never heard of.
I don't know about that. He's been making movies for 35 years and some have been extremely mainstream. Maybe people in their 20s don't but I kinda refuse to believe from like 25 on don't know who he is.
Really? The Ocean's franchise isn't that old. And he's had a few mainstream hits since then.
Maybe to some young bucks. 🤷🏽♂️
people may not know him by name but everybody knows his movies, which is the case with many directors. u can ask any average person who watched dune who is the director and they can't name him
oh hell yeah the shots look like the perspective of a ghost/presence watching over the family
Love this film! Got to see it at VIFF and I think it might be Soderbergh's best work
Wow!
Bot, or paid off?
Cam work looking dope. Vibes are ominous.
Not a lot going on. And it's Steven Soderbergh. So, maybe.

A Steven Soderbergh horror film? TAKE MY MONEY
Holy crap, was that a trailer that made you interested in a movie without giving the entire plot away!?! How can it be!
ooo so excited for this! looks like an original story and the way it's shot looks incredible.
So the movie is us as a ghost trying to figure out who we are, and then rage and grief at the end?
Kinda sounds like an A24 film 🤔
This comes out the weekend of my birthday I’m sooooooooo excited like omg ❤❤❤❤
I'm ready & excited to see Soderberg give his take on inspiration from Gaspar Noe & Ari Aster. Once it's released likely something very different as well. Can't wait.
A month after Christmas and we're still getting Presence!
This trailer really is innovative until the end: it says „in theaters January 24“
Oh having the pov be from the ghost itself is such a awesome idea
The trailer doesn’t give much away which is great because I’m super intrigued to see how the premise plays out.
Seeing that David Koepp wrote this makes me immediately invested. 🤓
this looks so good. cant wait !
"Finally, a real trailer that just shows the character and the setting. Finally!"
A POV from the ghosts perspective 🤔 could be interesting
Obviously never seen ghost story
@philstone6129 don't think I have
@@philstone6129 meh
NEON has been on fire this year. Sure this will be just as amazing.
Neon making its own space like the A24. Appreciate it❤
Just got the trailer for this during Anora. Looks really good.
Oh I love a good Haunted House movie the fact that Lucy Liu is it in is just icing on the cake!
Good damnn❤❤
FINALLY! Looks amazing, can't wait to watch it.
It would be really cool if they made the movie in 1 scene

I'm not sold yet. It doesn't look scary.
This may be a great film to watch via VR headset
The reason I'm interested in this because David Koepp wrote this, who is the writer the first two Jurassic park movies
And , Stir Of Echoes. 👍
@@captainmobius5823 dont forget the Secret Windows
well they were books so he was an 'adapter' at best lol
but ever since malcolms dad sold meth ill never judge an actors range early
Wrong, he wrote the new Jurassic Park film as well
I feel this is gonna be as big as it was " Paranormal Activity " back in the day
I know it's just the trailer, but you can't tell me this doesn't remind you immediately of Hereditary. At least cinematically and the "mood"....
I’m seated for queen Lucy Liu. uwu
perspective effect makes it looks so gamed

They should have released it on Christmas and called it "Presents".
You sold me when i saw Lucy Liu
soderbergh + koepp should be fire!
Assuming this is from the perspective of the dead? Or maybe it’s just “new” camera work, as I see people alluding to. Interested.
Looks like a good theater watch.
wasn't my fav but I enjoyed it!
worth a watch i'd say

Julia Fox is narrating so where is she in the film?
For those of you who didn't get it, This was Scary.
Can this be released tmw
Soooooo this couldn't be released this October? (2024) just in ti.e for spooky season.
It's like Enter The Void and Evil Dead had a rosemary's baby, and this ghost is following this family to the very end.
Now that's a good trailer.
Oh I'm here for this
So it's like 'The Others', but FPV? Anyway, it looks positively original and good.
Can’t wait for this!!!
So is this from the perspective of the ghosts like “The Others!” I love that movie.
I’m calling it.. The house itself is the ghost.. maybe a family annihilation scenario?
The way the camera moves and the natural light kinda reminds me of Terrence Malick
I feel like overall Neon has been putting out some solid horror lately. My only thing is that the last two horror movies I’ve seen (Longlegs & Cuckoo) ended being a lot less scary than their trailers made them seem. Hopefully this one is genuinely scary.
From what I’ve heard it’s more of a drama, so I’m kinda expecting to be more sad than scared.
I feel like this is what paranormal activity wanted to be but never could achieve it
No
So basically “In Violent Nature” but with a ghost instead of a slasher instead?
It tells the story from "The Presence"'s point of view?
Where is the scary part?
Lucy Liu?
I am DEAD ❤
Great film, but tonally very different from what this trailer suggests
Yeah, I get the impression this is actually more drama, maybe psychological thriller, rather than horror
Mannnn when they showed that quote of "one of the Scariest films you'll see all year" I was likeee "Yeahh OK" lol this looks like a thriller at best

Longlegs vibes checked!

Neon is eating with this one.
Lucy Liu? YES
I hope it’s a alien movie no spoilers
So which family is real and which are the ghosts?
They seem to be leaning heavily into this being a scary film so I'm interested to see how from the entity's perspective
It's somehow managed to be POV and traditional cinematography
Yes.
Just, yes.
Looks really, really intresting...
