After carefree teenager Jay (Maika Monroe) sleeps with her new boyfriend, Hugh (Jake Weary), for the first time, she learns that she is the latest recipient of a fatal curse that is passed from victim to victim via sexual intercourse. Death, Jay learns, will creep inexorably toward her as either a friend or a stranger. Jay's friends don't believe her seemingly paranoid ravings, until they too begin to see the phantom assassins and band together to help her flee or defend herself.

Critics Consensus

Smart, original, and above all terrifying, It Follows is the rare modern horror film that works on multiple levels -- and leaves a lingering sting.

It Follows represents a compelling evolution in how studios and audiences can (and should) conceive of its monsters.

3/5

No question that the storytelling here is impressive; the story itself, however, is a bit thin.

10/10

It Follows feels like a new thing in horror. It feels like a movement toward the conceptual idea of what drives horror. Strip down the overburdened tropes and monsters that make up what horror was for decades, and leave just the essentials.

3.5/5

It's not a bad film at all, and I appreciate that it feels so original and unconventional. But at the same time, I think it has too many unfulfilling moments to fully recommend it. [Full review in Spanish].

4.5/5

Filled to the brim with technical and narrative mastery, David Robert Mitchell’s sophomore feature “It Follows” screams success, both as a horror film and an art form with a voice.

The film is vile to an indescribable degree. The director just wanted to show us a pornographic film. You can see that through pornographic websites. I do not recommend watching the film at all.

Looked really good and had some great musical moments. I did not find it scary. Sex was integral to the plot, but the sex scenes were awful. The attempted explanations of the plots were comical.

Es una pelicula con una buena historia pero mal desarrollo, siento que las cosas se volvían repetitivas y llega a un punto que deja de llamar la atención.
