It Follows

It Follows (2014) — After a casual sexual encounter, 19‑year‑old Jay finds herself the target of a terrifying, supernatural curse: an unstoppable, slow‑moving entity that relentlessly follows her and can take the appearance of anyone. With only her sister and a small circle of friends to help, Jay must confront the curse’s rules, its shapeshifting horror, and the wrenching choice it forces on her. Seeing this film you’ll experience a slow‑burn, paranoid horror rather than flashy jump scares. The movie trades speed for atmosphere — long, wide shots of suburban streets and lakeside nights, an eerie synth score, and a persistent feeling that danger is always a few steps behind. The creature’s deliberate, inevitable motion creates a mounting sense of dread; even crowded rooms feel unsafe because the threat can look like someone you love. Themes of adolescence, sexual anxiety and the inescapability of certain consequences run through the story, giving the scares an unsettling, allegorical edge. If you like atmospheric, stylish horror that lingers after the credits — spare on gore but heavy on mood, tension and ambiguity — It Follows delivers a uniquely unsettling experience.
