Stranger Presence is a unique gem from 2022, born out of a college project. The film leans heavily into a creeping atmosphere, with its pacing deliberately slow, building tension in a way that feels almost nostalgic for classic horror. It plays with themes of isolation and the uncanny, utilizing practical effects that lend a tangible quality to its scares. While the performances might not hit the mark for everyone, there's a certain earnestness that comes through, capturing the spirit of youthful filmmaking. The direction, though anonymous, showcases a raw creativity that sometimes overshadows the technical shortcomings. It’s not polished, but there's something raw and compelling about it that makes it stand out in the sea of horror entries from the same year.
