We Are Still Here

2015 ·1h 23m · ★ 5.6 (519)

After the death of their college age son, Anne and Paul Sacchetti relocate to the snowswept New England hamlet of Aylesbury, a sleepy village where all is most certainly not as it seems. When strange sounds and eerie feelings convince Anne that her son's spirit is still with them, they invite an eccentric, New Age couple to help them get to the bottom of the mystery.

Why it matters

A brooding blend of haunted house dread and folk horror mystique that revives classic supernatural chills with a modern indie sensibility.

  • Anchored by strong performances from Barbara Crampton and Andrew Sensenig, whose grief fuels the film’s unsettling emotional core.
  • Practical effects and atmospheric set design conjure a tangible sense of place in that bleak New England winter—cold, isolated, and creeping with menace.
  • For fans of slow-building hauntings that lean into folklore and ritual, this is a quiet yet potent meditation on loss and lingering spirits.
  • Not flawless—some pacing lags and exposition feels familiar—but its commitment to mood and old-school scares makes it a worthy haunt for lovers of atmospheric horror.
