    Maybe I'm not refined enough to understand and enjoy this movie as there is only one word I can muster to describe what I just watched and that is .....Boring

    A movie that just makes you look over your shoulder why you are still watching, you stop and think is this real. Aside from the unnecessary adult theme this is a good movie, by far some of the best cinematography ever in a thriller. The acting is a bit engrossing sometimes, they did a good job in playing out this completely original story.

    While paying homage to the original horror films, It Follows keeps constant suspense, with heart pounding music ultimately delivering a chilling horror film. - Andrew Huynh

    Definitely a solid horror film in a time where we don't see a lot of quality in the genre. It has the feel of a 1970's horror movie and borrows a lot from movies such as Nightmare on Elm Street and Halloween. Some of the acting may dip throughout the film, but the lead (Maika Monroe) has a great performance. A must-see for horror movie fans.
