It follows ... an interesting start into the mediocrity.

Rating: 5/10 (17 April 2020)

'It follows' is an OK horror movie.
The starting scene is brilliant and establishes that it's not another typical cheap jump-scare movie. But as the acts follow, it falls into a slump of repeating what you have already seen in lesser movies.
Characters choose to do away with any semblance of logic and the ending, at least on the surface, is very uncharacteristic of the premise.
However, there is one scary scene in particular which is ingeniously directed and will remain in my mind as the highlight of the movie. But other than that I wasn't scared almost at all during the entirety of the movie, even though I am not hard to scare; unless I was expected to be terrified by characters watching random people through different windows.
On a higher level, the plot attempts to deliver some metaphors which communicate specific moral values and also there are a few not-so-obvious twists that you can miss if you aren't paying attention. Which all are left (presumably artistically) open for interpretation.
Overall, the movie is somewhere in between. Its flaws somewhat mask its genius moments, but hose moments are there regardless. In the end, you end up with a good movie, which in my less than humble opinion, is far from a masterpiece. And to be honest, I am surprised by other reviews which most reside at far ends of the spectrum.
Personal suggestion: Watch it, if you have no better horror movies at hand.
