If you missed out on seeing Presencein the theaters early this year, you now have the chance to experience one of the most unique films of 2025 from the comfort of your couch. Directed by the inventive Steven Soderbergh and written by David Koepp, Presenceis an unconventional haunted house story. Though it's billed as a horror film, the genre-bender flips the traditional ghost story on its head, ultimately creating a story that is "sharply funny, beguiling, a bit chilling, and ultimately sweet," as Mashable Film Editor Kristy Puchko puts it.

Told from the viewpoint of a "presence" in the house, the film is shot entirely in first-person perspective. Puchko writes, "Soderbergh's steady hand is so mindful in its performance that you can practically feel the expressions of a face you cannot see." It's captivating and vulnerable and incredibly tense. And as of June 3, you can finally stream it. Here's what you need to know to watch Presenceat home.

What isPresence about?

Presencefollows the Payne family — mom Rebekah (Lucy Liu), dad Chris (Chris Sullivan), son Tyler (Eddy Maday), and daughter Chloe (Callina Liang) — who have just moved into a new house in the suburbs. While they appear to be the perfect nuclear family on paper, cracks start to form within their unit. All the while, strange and supernatural events begin to occur around the house. Who is the ghostly presence in the house, and what does it want from them?

Is Presenceworth watching?

With Soderbergh shouldering the camera, Presenceis "a remarkable union of a clever concept and a superb execution," Mashable's reviewer writes. "I'll be absolutely shocked if Presence doesn't get a Best Cinematography Oscar nomination."

Of course, with that first-person perspective comes tension. Sullivan, one of the leads in the film, put it best: "This movie is going to wring you out before it releases any of that tension."

He adds that some people walked out of the theater due to the stomach-churning tension. If that's not your cup of tea, Presencemight not be for you. For everyone else, Puchko calls it "a sublimely realized ghost story that is easily one of the best films of the year."

Other film critics largely agree, as it currently holds an 87 percent critic rating on Rotten Tomatoes. Audiences are more torn; it holds only a 52 percent audience rating. Of course, it's up to you to be the judge.

Stream it on Hulu

Streamers can finallytune into Presenceas well. It officially made its debut on Hulu on June 3, 2025. Hulu subscriptions start at $9.99 per month, but there are a few different ways you can save. We've rounded up the best ongoing Hulu streaming deals below.

The best Hulu streaming deals

Best Hulu deal for most people: Hulu annual subscription

The best way to cut back on Hulu's streaming cost is to opt for an annual plan instead of a monthly plan. If you pay for a year up front of Hulu with ads, it'll cost you $99.99 ($8.33 broken down monthly). Meanwhile, a $9.99 monthly plan would add up to $119.88 in a year. That means you'll save about 16% or just shy of $20 in the long run. It ain't much, but every dollar counts in this economy.

Best bundle deal: Get Hulu and Disney+ for 45% off

Disney's bundle plans remain the best way to slash costs of multiple streamers at once. You can bundle Hulu with Disney+ in the Disney Duo Basic bundle and get both streamers with ads for only $10.99 per month. That's only a dollar more than paying for one streamer on its own, saving you about 45%. You can also throw in HBO Max for just $16.99 per month total, which saves you about 44$ on all three.

Best for students: Hulu Student

If you're already on one of these plans, head over to the T-Mobile promo page and choose "redeem now" to claim the offer. You'll just have to enter your T-Mobile number and account details to sign up for Hulu. Not on the Go5G Next plan or Experience Beyond plan?
