Presence

Soderbergh tests his film-making abilities with this nifty ghostly tale filmed completely through the eyes of the spirit. As a family with Lucy Liu as Rebekah and troubled teenage daughter Chloe settles into their fresh home, the filming device – representing the ghost – follows them around. The daughter appears aware of the supernatural presence, and it seems defensive toward her. However, the motive remains?

This Self-Referential Film

Nicolas Cage wholeheartedly adopts his eccentric image via this autobiographical spoof.

When Finney gets captured by the kidnapper and locked up in a cellar, he anticipates the worst.
