    Storyline

    • Trivia
      The film's concept derives from a recurring nightmare the director used to have, in which 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.

    8/10
    Beware the relentless hunter.
    It follows breaks the mould of modern horrors, by lacking gore, blood and the usual set of rules. Instead this film moves at a slower pace, and relies on storytelling and the dying art of suspense.

    It follows has a quite unusual storyline, which sees some unknown being torment it's victims perpetually, with only them able to see it, with the victim followed day and night without any let up. The only way to escape the grips of the being, to sleep with someone and pass the curse on, or so the theory goes anyhow. A pretty clever story with lots of twists.

    Well acted with some decent characters. The film has one help of an accompanying soundtrack, which is straight out of the eighties, big and brash, I loved it, worked so well for the film. Some great moments, most notably the beach scene, slow and very deliberate. If you've watched Torchwood, you'll know why I was reminded of an early episode.

    Really good film 8/10.
