Back to the Basics....

Rating: 10/10 (4 April 2015)

Remember the first time you saw Michael Myers spying on Jamie Lee Curtis when she was walking home from school, in the original Halloween? The simplicity of that scene; from the soundtrack to the non-use of gore, was terrifying. He was just standing there, watching her. You knew what was going to happen later, and that scene allowed your mind to run away with the possibilities of terror that would ensue. As I watched "It Follows", that's exactly how I felt for the majority of the film. Terrifying simplicity, with a soundtrack/score that is OUT OF THIS WORLD Excellent. I actually believe that the music during this movie contributed more than anything else. So good I've pre-ordered it on vinyl. The cast is fresh and talented, and you won't recognize the villain until it is almost too late. See it, now.
