‘IT FOLLOWS’ OPENING WIDE! (Exclusive)
Earlier this morning an erroneous report surfaced that RADiUS-TWC was being pressured into rushing It Follows, the scariest movie in years, direct to VOD platforms.
As alluded to in the article, we thought it was strange, especially considering the already planned expansion and massive opening weekend numbers. We did some detective work and followed up on the report. And what we learned it going to set the horror world on fire.
Bloody Disgusting has exclusive inside info that RADiUS will not be releasing It Follows on VOD or cable platforms anytime soon, and a wide theatrical run is most definitely happening. It’s expanding this coming weekend, and will be creeping to a theater near you sooner than you think.
As we keep pushing on you: I gave It Follows a perfect score, calling it “a classical horror masterpiece.” Mike Pereira referred to as a creepy, mesmerizing exercise in minimalist horror” when reviewed out of the TIFF last September.
While The Babadook is a great movie, it was overhyped. It Follows is different, and I can feel it in my bones that it’s going to be the next big indie breakout horror hit.
Get ready, “It” is coming…
“For 19-year-old Jay (Maika Monroe), the fall should be about school, boys and weekends at the lake. Yet after a seemingly innocent sexual encounter she suddenly finds herself plagued by nightmarish visions; she can’t shake the sensation that someone, or something, is following her. As the threat closes in, Jay and her friends must somehow escape the horrors that are only a few steps behind.”
