A lot of people really loved this movie and a lot of people really hated it. I think they might have been a little bit pessimistic. Even if it's a little slow and some things aren't exactly perfect it's still a really fantastic modern horror movie. It's hard to talk about the basis of this movie without spoiling the best parts of it but, I'll try my best to do so. If you're the type of person that's just like go ahead! Spoil me! Here's a what the story is about for the most part. SPOILER OPEN AT YOUR OWN RISK SPOILER OPEN AT YOUR OWN RISK SPOILER OPEN AT YOUR OWN RISK Spoiler for I warned you THREE TIMES ok?:
Alright if you didn't want to be spoiled then, let me talk about how the movie was directed. It's kind of a hipster way to go about things but, it really works for the movie considering it's about the current generation of teenagers. It gives the movie a certain little something that makes you feel like you're in a modern setting. The kids are all basic teenage kids just doing what kids do and living their lives. A lot of people say they dislike the way it was shot but, it gave an atmosphere that was really enjoyable. The characters and the acting. It's really hard to make something look like it's just an everyday type of thing and this movie does that. You get drawn into this world that these kids live in. They aren't anything special they're just everyday average people. And I think it gives the film a certain kind of charm. The way they just do things without thinking or hook up without reason. There's no stupid melodrama. The reason it's scary. It's a new idea. It really hasn't been done before and the way it was done is super clever. There's a tention you just can't shake the whole way through and you're sitting there wondering what exactly is going to happen next. And it's perfect for the current generation. It will make them second guess a lot of things and question their choices in life. It's not a perfect movie however. There are some parts that sort of drag on. They can be a little boring but, the movie needs this slow pace. There are some things that don't add up as well. You might say here and there hey, that's not right or that's not possible. If you can just bare with that you'll get a really great experience of of it. Over all I gave It Follows a 8.5 out of 10. The ending is a little obscure but, fitting to say the least. I went with a 10 point system because I feel it's needed for something that is more than just music. It's visuals, story, music, acting, etc. It also has a great OST.

Dust Devil. (1993) Rec'd by TrollHeart
----------- I'll say something short about this. First of all I love movies about witchcraft or anything of the sort but, that's not the only basis of this movie it just makes me like it even more. The cinematics are just outstanding. It's visually pleasing. So many little details. It was shot so well. The story itself will grab you and it won't let go for the whole movie. Enticing. Mysterious. It grabs hold of your mind and twists and turns it not letting go. The location really adds spice that a lot of other horror movies lack. How often do you see something set in South Africa? I really enjoyed this. So unique. I haven't watched a movie this good in a while. A perfect combination of psychological and horror. I might do a full review of it because, I'm pretty sure it's getting my place for 1993. PERFECT ENDING. Thank you for showing me such an amazing movie. 9 out of 10 stars |
