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.
