I wanted to give it a higher score , But Really there's nothing worth it in this poor attempt of making a movie.

Extremely poor horror concept, dull story , no real threat ,no real enemy/villain , no real scares/jump scares , and what kind of scare are you getting from a guy/old lady walking slowly towards you , that you can literally just WALK-away-from easily , and you can actually harm ,shoot and kill it ..!!!

They don't even show show you what will actually happen to you if you get caught until really late in the movie and it's just stupid ...you get **** to death !!! .

This got many favorable reviews, so I rented it. It was a complete was of about two hours of my time. I came back to Metacritic just to read the reviews again, to see what I misunderstood about the movie. I still don't know what I missed.

This was a very boring movie, it had an interesting idea that was never developed at all. The "ending" was stupid and nothing is ever explained. 100 minutes of my life wasted.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. You know what isn't scary? A creature that you can out-walk. NOT OUTRUN: Out-walk.
You know what isn't scary? A creature that you can stop with common real-world weapons (like gun)
You know what isn't scary? A creature that has to go through doors and windows.
You know what isn't scary? A creature that doesn't disguise itself in any way to try and fool the person it wants to kill into thinking it's one of their friends.
You know what isn't scary? It Follows.

This movie is not scary, and I have no idea why people think it is. The first time you see the monster, it looks like an old woman in a medical gown. ON A COLLEGE CAMPUS! It's later forms are a dead girl, some tall guy, and a naked man on her roof.
The kids are also the dumbest kids ever. They find a gun and practice shooting it and at POINT BLANK RANGE miss the monster 5 times. They have an "ingenious" plan to kill the monster after realizing that they can't kill it to try and electrocute it in a pool. So they surround the pool with electronics and plug them in. They then put miss target in the pool to try and get the monster to come in.
Well guess what the unstoppable bloodthirsty wanting to kill her monster does? Instead of going into the pool, it starts throwing the appliances in in order to kill her. WHO WOULD'VE GUESSED?????

This thing is basically an invisible man with a limp and a grudge. I can show you scarier stuff behind a toilet.

What were the critics thinking? This is one of the worst movies I have seen in ages. It is plodding, boring and had only 2 scares which made me jump. The ending is horrible. Do not waste your money on this piece of garbage.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. SPOILER ALERT! DO NOT READ THIS IF YOU DO NOT WANT TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENS! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!

That being said, It Follows is an absolutely God-awful film. Decent production value makes it more depressing, and basically adds insult to injury. This movie fails at in-your-face horror and psychological horror. It is not scary at all, and would be better if marketed as a sex ed film. It uses nothing that even resembles logic. The one part that really stuck out to me, making me realize that this may well be the single worst movie that I have ever seen was the beach scene when "it" grabs Jay's hair and sits there until her friends can hit it rather than just killing her. In classic cheeseball fashion, she escapes. That and the monster DRYHUMPS PEOPLE TO DEATH. DEATH BY DRYHUMPING. HOW STUPID IS THAT? It Follows takes the horror movie cliché of people dying after they pork and make it where they die because they pork. This is just a short review, I could go on and on about how bad this movie is. A legitinately horrible movie, I created a Metacritic account to try to prevent others from wasting their money on this **** as I did. You have been warned, this is an absolutely AWFUL movie. It isn't even in the realm of so bad it's good. It is just plain bad. Not the least bit scary or even mildly entertaining as a film, please do not waste your money seeing this. Hell, don't watch it if you can for free. Save 100 minutes of your life.

What Follows "It Follows" is the stench of "what the hell did I just watch?"
Horrible logic
First time actors
Bad production value
Lead female was ok..
Great student film.
Avoid it at all costs!

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. It Follows does not deserve such a high rating. You know when you're watching a movie and you keep telling yourself it'll get better (it will, it will, it must!) and then it just doesn't.... Well that's this one all over. It started out ok, I was slightly intrigued after the first death, but then I found myself screaming internally just get on with it! I've heard this film compared positively to Halloween, which I find insane. Michael Myers is, and will always be, an iconic slasher. What even is this thing that follows these teens around, other than completely forgettable? We're given nothing to go on, no background or interesting info at all other than the guy she sleeps with telling her to have sex asap and pass it on like a disease. YAWN! What's worse is that the thing takes the form of an old woman first, and they are really not very scary (apart from the old woman in the cafe in Legion... I did NOT like her.) and it moves at a pace of about 2 miles per hour, which is only ok if you're the big Mikey M and are carrying a bloody big knife. Seriously, if you're after something scary give this one a miss. It's not even remotely creepy, and the music, which actually did put me in mind of Halloween, just grated on my nerves, which were already stretched thin. It's definitely the sign of a bad movie when you wish the characters would just hurry up and die already. Expand

TheI am seriously baffled by any form of positive feedback about this film. I am a long time horror fan, but this movie is the most unscary, u creepy, boring, piece of trash I've ever seen and I included several B grade movies in that mix. The acting is abysmal, the cinematography grainy and sloppy and it does not add in anyway to the atmosphere of the film.

The plot, on the surface, is interesting if not at all original, but it randomly disappears in what one can only assume are poor attempts at minimalistic/artistic fail making.

There is absolutely nothing creepy, or seuspensful in the film and the script is delivered in such a dull, wannabe indie way that it comes across as contrived.

I cannot fathom how this film manage to get any from of theatrical viewing, I've seen Fan Made movies in YouTube with more substance.

Dull in every sense of the word. No thrills, no shocks, it even gratuitous gore, this film has as much in common with the horror genre as Lorde has with rock music.

The trailer really grabbed my attention and I knew I had to rent this asap. During the first 15 minutes I was really into it, but little by little this movie went no where. You get NO explanation of what "it" is, which is incredibly annoying.The trailer really grabbed my attention and I knew I had to rent this asap. During the first 15 minutes I was really into it, but little by little this movie went no where. You get NO explanation of what "it" is, which is incredibly annoying. Is this a demon? A sprit? You never find out.

Next, the CGI is just awful. Took me right out of this film. You would think you could avoid the use of crappy CGI with the type of film this is.

Another part of this movie that is total overkill is the nudity. There is a time and place for nudity, but this movie tries to be edgy with a slow walking naked chick peeing on herself. I am sorry, but it's not scary.

I really tried to give the movie the benefit of the doubt, because the music/score is cool, but not even watching this movie home alone with the lights off could give me any good scare.

There is no horror movie to watch. If you enjoy warped video, panning video of nothing, video of people do people things (brushing teeth, staring at things, ect...), then this is the movie for you. Of course, it must be added, the vast majority of the film that isn't panning shots of nothing, are shots of porno magazines and nudity for the sake of nudity. There is nothing artistic about the way they show nudity. All together, this film is an example of a modern era, where anyone with a camera can think themselves capable of releasing a film. I cannot say it strongly enough, DO NOT WATCH THIS FILM. There is nothing good about this film. I can not understand why the reviews put this film in such high esteem. A zero is too good a score for this atrocity of a film. DO NOT WATCH. Expand

The only redeeming feature of this **** was the soundtrack which included some transformers-esque deep base dub step. The film itself was just a bunch of random scenes which didn't piece together to form a narrative and instead left the watcher just guessing "what the **** is this pile of **** Pro's the blondies arse. Cons - being conned. I saw this in HMV for £17.00 - - If you purchase, ask for a gift receipt

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. First of all, I don't know how they sold to the studio an idea for a sexually transmitted ghost. Just describing the film to someone is embarrassing. As you watch it, you are overcome with feelings of dread and anger that any of these characters could be so stupid. They constantly lock themselves in small rooms with flimsy doors or giant windows. The girl repeatedly listens to her friends who tell her that nothing is there even though she knows that only she can see the "whatever it is". The solution to her problem is so obvious that people were yelling it out during the trailers months before it was released. Just fly to another city or even another country and sleep with the first guy who says yes. It's not like she's hideously ugly or something. Every single thing that's going to happen is telegraphed so obviously, it's like a fifth grader wrote the screenplay. Expand

Terrible, terrible film. Do not waste a minute on this piece of garbage.

So many plot holes, and unanswered questions.. Did she **** those dudes on that boat? What ever became of them if she did? Did Paul **** those hookers at the end, or was he just perving on them for the sake of perving?

I cannot fathom how anyone could have actually enjoyed this film. I just can't.

One question that I can't even imagine the answer to: what in the **** was she looking at in her granny panties?

I cannot believe this POS ever made it on a big screen, anywhere.

J'ai remarqué que plus des adjectifs sont écrit en gros sur l'affiche, en très gros, plus le film est exactement l'inverse de ce que prétendent ces adjectifs (évidemment) dithyrambiques...

Ainsi, "ça suit", "ça te suit partout" est une grosse merde épouvantable qui tourne à vide du début à la fin. Je propose donc de nouveaux adjectifs pour le décrire : chiant et rasoir, paresseux, une couillonnade, ultra navrant et nul à chier. ça n'a pas assez de matière ni "d'inventivité" pour jouer sur la corde d'un quelconque surréalisme et en tant que "thriller", ça se viande, ça s'étale de tout son long dans le ridicule le plus complet, tout juste rattrapé par ses deux concurrents in extremis que sont l'incrédulité et la bêtise. Une tempête dans un petit verre d'eau tiède en somme, bien loin des superlatifs de la presse mange-boules.

Et quelle prétention que de s'étendre ainsi, de surexploiter le même principe paranoïde sans queue ni tête et de meubler avec ça pendant tout le film ! c'est inepte et sans aucun intérêt.

Got to be honest it started very well and was enjoyable and got weirder and weirder and dragged and got boring and worse and worse especially the ending which is awful... Visions of grannies, women and stuff following this young girl which was pretty creepy but got sillier and sillier, it has some good scare factors but gets worse and worse but the pool scene was excellent.... Rest of the movie was really bad and certainly one of the worst horror films I've ever seen and some of the characters are very unlikely or goofy. Avoid at all costs. Expand
