Presence's reviews
Media reviews
Entertainment Weekly
As haunted house stories go, Presence is more interested in lurking dread than bloody jump scares, slowly ratcheting up the tension with long, uninterrupted takes.
Slashfilm
When Presence delves into the more typical trappings of the genre ? everything from a scene where a psychic investigates the house to moments of seance-like invocation ? it still retains its unique voice, thanks not just to Soderbergh but Koepp.
Time
Presence follows you home, long after the camera has stopped rolling.
The Guardian
It is well-acted, disciplined and intimate as a play. But for me it is marred by an early, unsubtle moment of overt supernatural creepiness, which signals a retreat from ingenuity and restraint.
New York Post
Presence is a brisk 85 minutes, which is nice if you have dinner plans, but it also exposes limited storytelling ambitions. It\'s a mid-season episode of TV. We don\'t get to know much about the characters, and don\'t care either way about their fate.
