Faced my fears

Rating: 8/10 (13 September 2015)

I faced my fears. I never liked scary movies, because I never thought it was a smart idea to pay money for a movie that wasn't really good, but scared you. I would think "why would you want to pay to be scared?" I haven't actually gone to the movies to see a scary movie unless I was being forced by friends to go. The movie that I just saw was a scary movie, but there was something unique about my experience. I actually didn't hate the movie. I also actually watched the movie instead of having my hands over my eyes for most of the movie. The movie I saw was called "It Follows", but it's a hard movie to really explain, but so you get the gist it's about a girl who is being followed by "something" that she can't let touch her or she'll die. This movie was unique as it looked like a different time period. The movie was very retro and had an interesting idea. The idea was scary and so was the movie, but it wasn't too scary. It was scary enough to put itself in the horror genre but allow me to watch it and actually enjoy the movie. The movie had a very cool look to it and it didn't follow the same theme of people doing stupid things to get them in scenarios. This movie was very cool to see and it was so unique for me as a viewer to actually enjoy the movie even though it did scare me, but it's message was also very cool and took a different way at getting that message across. Actually enjoying this movie surprised me so much as there were things that I try staying away from in other movies, but it was done in such a way that it was hidden to me, so that I didn't care about them and that they made the movie better.
