An ordinary-looking suburban house is plagued by extraordinary events in the upcoming supernatural thriller.

PRESENCE, directed by Steven Soderbergh from a screenplay by David Koepp (JURASSIC PARK, STIR OF ECHOES), will open in select cities January 17 from Neon. Lucy Liu, Chris Sullivan, Callina Liang, Eddy Maday, West Mulholland and Julia Fox star; the synopsis: “A family moves into a suburban house and becomes convinced they’re not alone.” The difference this time: We see the action from the ghost’s point of view.
