There are times when I am frustrated with myself for writing as much as I do on these reviews. It’s great when there’s a lot to say about a particular movie, and in fact writing 800-1000 words on a movie is sometimes a little restrictive. But then there are times when I don’t have a great deal to say. That’s not always a bad thing in terms of what it means for the film. In this case, We Are Still Here is a movie that deserves to be talked about for all of the right reasons. There’s just honestly not a lot that has to be said about it.
The main issue going in is that this is going to be a list of tropes. This is very clearly a haunted house movie for starters. It’s also a movie where outsiders move into a small town and end up in the town’s creepy haunted house, filled with terrible lore of the former occupants. And, naturally, the house is going to be filled with some unquiet ghosts. That’s the set up, and in truth, the film isn’t going to deviate from this much, but it’s going to play within those constraints surprisingly well.
