It Follows is set to be one of the horror events of 2015 as it hits the big screen today... it really is promising to be one of the best horror movies that we have seen for some time.
It Follows
This is a movie that you cannot miss this weekend if you are a fan of this genre, as It Follows is a movie that has been whipping up a storm on the festival circuit of late.
If you are heading to the cinema to see It Follows this weekend, then we have a terrific clip to whet you appetite. The movie sees leading lady Maika Monroe in a spot of bother:
Monroe is not stranger to the big screen with role in The Bling Ring, The Guest and Labor Day in recent years, however, It Follows looks set to be the movie that will really put her on the map.
The actress takes on the central role of Jay, and is joined on the cast list by Keir Gilchrist, Olivia Luccardi, Lili Sepe, and Daniel Zovotto.
It Follows sees David Robert Mitchell back in the director's chair - he also penned the screenplay - for what is the second feature film of his career. The movie comes four years after he made his debut with The Myth of the American Sleepover.
After a date and seemingly innocent sexual encounter, 19-year-old Jay is left with an inescapable sense that someone, or something is following her. Jay and her friends team up to try and find ways escape the traumatising horrors that are always right behind them.
The breakout film from the 2014 Cannes Film Festival, It Follows is a suspenseful, beautifully shot, horror film that takes old, tired horror clichés and puts a smart, culturally relevant spin on them whilst maintaining a timeless class that the horror genre hasn't seen for a long time. Teen sex, suburbia, murder, and nightmarish demons all take on a new layer of substance and style.
