    Storyline

    Edit
    For 19-year-old Jay, Autumn should be about school, boys, and weekends out at the lake. But after a seemingly innocent sexual encounter, she finds herself plagued by strange visions and the inescapable sense that someone, something, is following her. Faced with this burden, Jay and her friends must find a way to escape the horrors that seem to be only a few steps behind. —Jose Tamayo

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      The film's concept derives from a recurring nightmare the director used to have, where he would be stalked by a predator that continually walked slowly towards him.
    • Goofs
      (at around 1h 20 mins) "It" would have no reason to climb on Jay's roof, always taking the most direct route to the cursed, through a door or window. However, when talking to Hugh/Jeff he says that "It" is still taunting him despite Jay being the most recent target. If Jay had sex with one or more of the men on the boat, as implied but never directly stated, then this would be a similar taunt.
    • Quotes

      Hugh: It could look like someone you know or it could be a stranger in a crowd. Whatever helps it get close to you.

    • Crazy credits
      There are no opening credits at all, and the title does not appear on-screen until the end of the film.
    • Alternate versions
      The volume level of the music was substantially louder in the theatrical version than in the 2015 Blu-Ray and DVD release.

    return of the real horror
    Finally a real horror in a long time! No more bloody, slasher crap. This is how the really scary movies were made. Suspense and fear are created by great cinematography and music.

    The pace of the movie is slow and almost no to few special effects are present. I surely hope that this movie hails the return of the great horror genre: we are scared of the unknown and not violence for the sake of it.

    All the young actors are promising, they really pulled it off. Kudos to the director who also wrote the script, I am looking forward to his next movie.

    Go see it, you won't regret it!
