We Are Still Here: Movie Review

The review below is a mini-review which was part of my 2015 SXSW recap from last month. You can read the full recap here.

Horror writer/producer Ted Geoghegan makes his directorial debut with another effective SXSW haunted house flick, titled, “We Are Still Here”. Aside from weird things happening to a family within a house, this is a whole lot different than “The Diabolical”. “We Are Still Here” is very eerie and has a much more seasoned line-up of actors. A more old school feel of horror is on display and it works.

Anne and Paul (Barbara Crampton and Andrew Sensenig respectively) lost their teenage son in a car accident. After deciding to start their life over, they move into a house in the New England Countryside. Strange things start happening in the house and Anne believes it is the ghost of her son. There is something haunting the house but it is not her son….it is something much more sinister. “We Are Still Here” is well written and pretty damn creepy, plus the winter setting helps. Just like “The Diabolical”, the beings that are doing the haunting look great. This is another SXSW that is worth checking out if you love horror.
