Speaking of nudity, GROSS! That's all I have to say, the scariest part of this movie would have to be the old naked people that are the "curse." When my niece and I left the theater we both were super confused by why they didn't explain where the curse came from. Instead you are left to just wonder, which didn't really make things scarier by any means, it just made it odd.
Does anyone remember this guy from Mean Girls? Of course you do, because when you saw the movie and he said his ridiculous sayings they stuck with you and they were funny. Well, in It Follows, it's not funny, but it's not really scary either. Maybe if someone would have shown these kids Mean Girls there wouldn't even be a movie to make. Okay let's get back on track, so instead of you get chlamydia and die, you get a creepy (only because they are nasty naked) person following you around trying to kill you. I think there was maybe one part where I jumped, and it was only because something hits a window.Now, I can't totally discredit the whole movie because I thought the acting was pretty good. I love Keir Gilchrist, he has been one of my favorites since United States of Tara. And despite the plot being, interesting, and the actors doing a great job, it just doesn't leave much to be scared about. Last but not least, I do have to say the main actor, Maika Monroe, has some serious "ride or die" friends, if you will. I won't tell you why but if you watch you'll find out.
So, if you can get around the nasty nudity, which it does say graphic nudity for why it is rated R, but some nudity is good, some is bad, and this is definitely categorized as bad, but if you can get past it then I would say watch it, at least RENT IT, because it is pretty weird. If nudity is not your thing, skip it.
