Here’s yet another trailer for David Robert Mitchell’s It Follows – already the most anticipated horror film of the year – which Radius-TWC will release on March 13th (out in the UK on February 27). It really pushes in on the arc about a girl who must shed her horrific infection. It’s got a very J-horror vibe, with a taste of Halloween.
We nearly gave it a perfect score – calling it “a creepy, mesmerizing exercise in minimalist horror” – when reviewed out of the TIFF last September.
“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.”
Maika Monroe, Keir Gilchrist, Daniel Zovatto, Jake Weary, Olivia Luccardi and Lili Sepe all star.
