It Follows
 
Anyone who likes Halloween, House of the Devil or any 80s horror film should check this one out. It pays tribute to the old films with its own original story

To me it didn't even feel like an 80's movie. It was like a movie I had never seen before, and I loved every second of it.

A lot of people have been claiming that "It" fills the role of an 80s slasher following the protagonist. I pretty strong disagree. The entire structure of the movie is fundamentally different from that style.

Slasher films, and for that matter most horror films, build up tension and then release it in periodic scares. It Follows uses very few major scares, and simply allows the tension to keep building through the entire runtime.

For me it was the attire people were wearing and the place it was chosen to be shown. The clothes seemed very normal 80s(not the glaringly obvious 80s style like spandex or poofy hair). The houses all seemed also from a different decade in how they're shot/decorated. The style of the decoration, but not things like tech or 80's bands. The actress does use an e-reader, but its a very 80's style of a large flip seashell. I think there were also posters, but of more recent music. The car they drive around as well as the places they film at are run down or suburban kitsch that reminds me of the 80s.

I found it to be quite boring.

I find myself getting bored with quite a few of the new releases lately.

I really want more that are on a 'Headless' level. ::danger::

The only thing about this movie that said "80s" to me was the synth soundtrack.

On first viewing this Friday i thought it was a good but average movie.But on second viewing last night i saw it quite differently.A very clever and interesting plot with minimal fx but plenty of style.Loved the soundtrack also,a nice throwback from a past era.
