Social context and film recommendations
In the author’s social circle, discussions about films and series are omnipresent, becoming an unavoidable topic of conversation. Working in the film industry, he is often solicited for off-the-beaten-path recommendations. This constant demand influences his choices, pushing him to unearth original and little-known works.
A striking example is “It Follows”, a horror film which, despite its popularity in certain circles, remains unknown to the general public. This film, appreciated even by those who are not fans of the genre, is a perfect example of the lasting impact a work can have, prompting passionate discussion and theorizing among friends.
Synopsis and direction of “It Follows
“It Follows” tells the story of Jay, an 18-year-old who, after an intimate encounter with her boyfriend, finds herself pursued by a mysterious entity. This invisible, sexually transmitted evil stalks her relentlessly, threatening her life. David Robert Mitchell’s direction, in only his second feature, is distinguished by an oppressive atmosphere and a unique visual style.
Prior to this film, Mitchell had directed a coming-of-age comedy, in stark contrast to the psychological horror of “It Follows”. Since its release in 2015, the film has captivated moviegoers, cementing Mitchell’s reputation in the thriller and mystery genre.
Future prospects with “They Follow
The announcement of the sequel, “They Follow”, is generating great anticipation among fans of the original. Scheduled to start shooting in 2025, this project promises to expand the mysterious and captivating universe introduced by “It Follows”. Expectations are high, both for character development and for the exploration of new narrative dimensions.
The challenge will be to maintain the balance between the subtle angst that made the first film such a success, and the innovation needed to surprise a now well-informed audience. This sequel could also strengthen David Robert Mitchell’s reputation as one of the genre’s most influential directors. Moviegoers can’t wait to see how this new work will enrich the legacy of the original.
