Interesting set-up, with an appropriate early pacing. There was a simplistic story that provided enough to draw attention, but the positives stop there.

It quickly goes off the rails with over-the-top death sequences, which due to little tension being established, and poor practical effects, come across as cheesy rather than frightening. The acting was average at best, and characters are easily forgettable. The town never becomes as disturbing as Goeghegan hopes it to be. The directing also fails to portray the creepy nature of the setting, which may have otherwise added tension.

By the end, it became a joke. So disappointing from an initially intriguing premise.

We Are Still Here is something of a mess to be quite frank. A film set clearly in the early 80's and the cinematography shows. Though it has things going for it , like a decent story and look and feel, I honestly just could not get into thisWe Are Still Here is something of a mess to be quite frank. A film set clearly in the early 80's and the cinematography shows. Though it has things going for it , like a decent story and look and feel, I honestly just could not get into this movie. Being someone who is very open minded about horror films ( I must be one of the rare who believe The Blair Witch Project is still something of absolute brilliance), I expected this movie to really shake it up and wow me. I was thoroughly disappointed. The acting was sub-par at best and the characters just didn't resonate well. This I believe could have been alleviated had this had a stronger cast, however it just felt muddled and comical at times when I felt the story was getting intense. It was just a sloppy film and I couldn't wait for it to be done. And then after watching, I cursed myself out for spending the time to watch it . The ghosts were definitely scary enough, and the film certainly felt like a time piece........They just did not mesh well together and instead of being something unique and scary, it was disappointing and tiring. I would only rent this if you are really into ghost stories. But for as much hope as I had in this film, I am just glad it is over and that I can hopefully deter anyone from wasting their time and money on this ........Trust me............ Expand
