Best horror movie in years!

Rating: 8/10 (3 May 2015)

During the commercials that were shown before the film began, I was heavily reminded of the problem with horror movies today. There were two trailers shown in the cinema, one for the new Poltergeist movie and the other one was for Insidious III. This was such a heavy reminder, we never see original horror movies these days, only remakes and sequels. What happened with the genre? I was a big fan of horror flicks back in the day, but then I watched too many bad ones.
It Follows is something very special. What begins as a normal teen horror film turns into a suspenseful, scary and GOOD movie. Yes, I said good movie. In fact, this is the best horror film in years. Almost everything is good about it. I don't know how to describe the movie without giving too much away, so let me put this simple.
It Follows "follows" a young and cute high school girl who is followed by an unknown supernatural force after getting involved in a sexual encounter. That's it, I won't give out any more plot details, because this is an experience that can easily be ruined by probably just watching the trailer and that's why I chose not to do it, although I was VERY excited for this to come out.
The movie kept me on the edge of my seat the whole time, even during slow paced scenes there not much happened. Because the movie always felt so haunting. Director David Robert Mitchell took a different turn on the horror genre, and instead of just adding random jump scares he builds up an EXTREME tension. Teenagers are usually bad actors in movies like these, since all they do for most part is having sex, partying and then they are killed off quickly. While It Follows may seem like a sex horror film, there are actually only like three short sex scenes, and they're NOT graphic at all.
There's some nudity, we see the main character topless quite a lot, but that's for good reasons only. I really hope It Follows makes a big profit so that the director can make another film. Go see this movie in theaters! It's a haunting experience that is worth the price of the ticket.
I'm giving It Follows a 8/10, and this is the first time I ever give a horror movie that score. I know around five good horror movies, and It Follows is one of them.
