David Robert Mitchell’s It Follows is not only thrilling and thought-provoking, but it also brings something new to a genre that often feels tired. It Follows can best be described as a distant cousin of Shivers, David Cronenberg’s cult hit. Different in its approach when compared to other horror films, David Robert Mitchell crafts a film that is both gorgeous and fear-inducing. In addition, It Follows has its share of appropriately timed humor. The acting is much better than other horror films and lead Maika Monroe shines. Monroe is a star in the making. David Robert Mitchell shows he has the talent and potential to compete with the top directors. I am intrigued to see what he does next.
You need to see this film if you’re a horror fan!
