## Summary

Ti West’s 27-minute horror film “Remnants” was released free to Apple Vision Pro users on 16 October. Made exclusively for the headset, it uses immersive video and spatial audio to place viewers inside its scenes, offering an example of how new viewing technology could change the experience of film.

Set in 1886 London, the film follows Eleanor, played by Lucy Boynton, as she visits a supposedly haunted castle despite a local man’s warning. The article describes striking sensory effects, including rain that seemed to hit the viewer, but says the plot is thin and the visuals can be blurry at close range. It raises a broader question about whether immersion can make up for technical limits and a simple story.
