We Are Still Here

About This Movie

We Are Still Here is a gem in the indie horror realm, dripping with that unsettling New England atmosphere. The setting is just perfect—snow-covered landscapes juxtaposed with the eerie isolation of Aylesbury. The film digs into grief and loss, showcasing how those emotions can manifest in such haunting ways. Anne’s escalating obsession with her son’s spirit is palpable, and the pacing feels deliberate, steadily building tension without rushing. Practical effects here really shine, adding a rawness that's often lacking in today’s CGI-heavy horror. The performances, especially from the leads, feel grounded and realistic, weaving a tragic depth to the spectral happenings. It’s not just about scares; it’s about what we leave behind.
