I loved your rendition of Chumbawumba's lone hit, Josh! I really did. Definetly remember that song from my pre-teen years. I'm wondering if you & i are part of the same generation? I know you mentioned in another video that you saw Shocker when it was in theaters, in 1989. In 1989 I was just starting school, in kindergarten. Which makes me think you must be older. If so, you certainly don't look it, lol. I'm 37.

Fantastic work, especially the water weakness and the lack of internet in the movie. Also noticed that one tv is old with antenna and black and white, while the other TV is modern with color cartoons. Additionally another video pointed out in the end hospital scenes, one nurse is dressed normal/scrubs etc., but one nurse is dressed Florence nightingale style-like twilight zoneish.

DAMN, I first read this comment before I got to you're "pissing the night away" reference... so when I first read this post, I thought you had realized chumbawunba was the band that made the awesome Synth score for this movie... I was all excited to look into it when I finished your video and now I just got to the part where I saw your reference and I realized chumbawunba had nothing to do with the awesome synth score and that they still suck 😂🤣

When the entity appears as Yara while Yara is right there in the water, maybe the entity who's weakness is water couldn't detect Yara on the water, and so used here image to get close to Jay by mistake.

Totally agree about the score. It adds so much to the movie. And I feel like scoring is an underappreciated aspect of movie making, especially because when done well it shouldn't be a focus, but rather a supporting element. This movie shows so well how a great score can add to the overall work, especially in horror which should function through multiple senses and not just jump scare garbage.

Great video. This is my theory: I always assumed it took the forms of Hugh's Mom and Greg because in those two scenes, it was visible by more than one person, therefore had more obstacles. It was trying to get past the second person in line first. By posing as Hugh's Mom, it hoped to put Hugh at ease and get right past him. It would be natural for Jay to see Greg walk into his own house. Since Jay was watching, it tried to fool her.

I didn't think the movie was that scary but I loved the allegory aspect of it. My theory about the curse/entity is that it was once human & alive, but probably suffered a sexual trauma that led to their death & they now exist as a vengeful spirit. If it ever did get to the earliest person in line,it may just stop. Especially when you look at it as a living STD. If it isn't passed along to anyone knew, then it just wouldn't exist anymore.

Just a thought but Greg sleeping with her seemed creepier than the first guy taking advantage of her. Greg seemed to think she was delusional so by "sacrificing himself" to saver her just came off as him wanting to get off under the guise of heroism. You could tell that after each hookup (boat guys totally ran a train), Jay looked visibly more debased. By avoiding the symbol of maturity/adulthood etc she gave away more innocence than she otherwise had to. Statistically more promiscuous people have less satisfying future relationships (the ran through 35 year old ready to settle down type).

It definitely was a train because you seen boat guy1 the old guy on her roof then when she was in the pool at the end you seen this middle aged boat guy. She gave in to the bad boy she mentioned doing it with him previously in high school and the guy that does her in the beginning was a bad boy that passed it to her if she would of chose nice guy Paul none of this would of ever happened. Edit that middle aged guy was her father I guess because she felt shame

For me, I sort of view It Follows in a meta-textual way as the representation of a single aspect of slasher films (killing people who have sex) taken literally and with an undefined entity in place of the killer. This is a cool film. I love the Carpenter and Romero influence and the super rad score. Like you, the more I rewatch it the more I enjoy it.

Amidst the plethora of endless remakes, sequels, prequels, reimaginings ( I am writing this after just seeing the trailer for the new Exorcist film) this was refreshingly different and genuinely disturbing in places. Let’s hope that the lack of a sequel continues (or a remake, or prequel or….)

Your "just a guy" statement at the end: You missed the moment when Jay and Greg are at the high school office looking at yearbooks and a girl dressed casually outside slowly walks directly to the building, at about :50. Jay and Greg are then seen getting the answer to their likely question from the secretary and leaving. In the car, you see the girl again walking slowly toward them. If she is "it," then yes, "it" also wears street clothes. You also state that Annie is "by the ocean" when the nearest body of water is Lake St Clair.

Possibly one of the best analysis of the movie I have seen so far as I am doing some research on the film for a paper. While I don't agree with some points you make, it was a very in depth analysis. It helped me with confirmation on some of my own observations. The entity can stand for a metaphor for a couple of things, which is what I mainly analyze in the paper.

Always believed the person behind them at the end was definitely IT. The reason for the street clothes is bc IT’s after paul now, not Jay. Plus, the shots from behind them walking start from farther back and then get closer just before the movie ends like they’re from IT’s POV and it’s getting closer to them, etc. Also, IT just randomly appears behind them very quickly and randomly, plus IT appears to be wearing the same clothes as Paul!

Great analysis. Totally agree with the perspective that the rules are not fully known, and shouldn’t be assumed. The random tech thing was deliberate, it was unsettling, and it’s one of the genius little touches that makes this film special. Going overseas - watch the first sequence. When the woman is leaving her father a VM, there’s a lit area in the water over her right shoulder. It looks like there’s something that breached the surface of the water. I took that to mean that water is not an effective obstacle.

Hey man, a quick note - the movie takes place in detroit. They were by lake Huron. Your questions about the weather make sense in regards to MI. Some falls you could swim well into October before.it got too cold. When I saw the movie my first guess for the timing was just after first freeze which would kick the leaves changing but would still leave it warm enough to be outside in the daytime (in the sun). Just found your videos, this was an awesome watch.

To this end I often tend to gravitate towards Japanese and Korean Horror films, but 'It Follows' really resonated with me as something genuinely spooky to come from The States. No unnecessary shitty jump scares... and that slow, unstoppable evil force from your worst nightmares.

What if the reason Jay's dad isn't in the proverbial picture is that he sexually assaulted her prior to the movie and each form of the entity is someone that she couldn't confide in or an archetype of her innocence lost. The tall man is how she viewed her father prior to the assault, the old woman how she pictures herself in her later years, the girl in the torn brassiere and red skirt how she views her current worth etc

Just a comment to add that after it’s at her house at one point nearish the end, she looks out and her swimming pool has been destroyed, seemed weird at the time but and I guessed it was some kind of ‘innocence lost’ commentary but if it’s weakness is water then it makes sense that it would have wrecked the pool.

She swims out to the boat and goes through with it. The idea that it passes on and STOPS following you until it kills the next person is just what Jeff says. I think this is proof that passing it along adds others to the curse but does nothing to stop it from coming after you. The entity coming for you is inevitable.

It’s impossible to lock in a time, but I think September in the mid to late 2000s fits the best. Vehicles were mostly indistinguishable from those in 2014, when the movie came out. Smart phones weren’t ubiquitous, but did exist and the characters’ lack of cell phones and smart TVs could just be a result of being poor. I knew affluent adults that didn’t have a cell phone until 2010ish, so broke teenagers not having one in the mid 2000s isn’t a stretch. This would also allow for an e-reader to exist, as the first e-reader (that didn’t use a CD) came out in the mid 2000s. September in that region would be warm enough to allow for swimming during the day, but cool enough to warrant layered clothing in the evening. Are there still some anachronistic elements? Probably, but that could be explained as continuity goofs. That happens all the time in period pieces.

The forms it take more than likely have to do with their Victims own personal sexual awakening line. With when it’s a strangers being the closest approximation it can understand. There is a psychological theory that a child’s first attraction is to the parent of the opposite sex. Which is where we get the expression a man marries his mother and a woman marries her father. The logical basis behind that is that the Parent is the base representation/example of the ideal lover subconsciously.

I've always took the ending as since they had sex within the confines of a committed relationship, that essentially broke the curse. In addition to that, I just thought of an origin as I was watching this video. It started with a witch's curse/spell. Maybe someone got cheated on, be it a male or female, and they called upon a specific demon to punish those having casual sex, starting with the cheater and it's gone on for who knows how long.

What if the water is just meant to be a false sense of security? Annie & Jay are both attacked at the beach. The neighbor boy spied on Jay while she was in her pool. Plus how she was still attacked in the final pool scene. The water=safety theory reminds me of when I was a teenager and other kids "knew" that girls couldn't get pregnant if they did it in water. My guess it that the spirit/curse did survive the pool scene & was following them in the end using the form of Paul himself. Their outfits look very similar.

I agree. Movie was pretty good, but nowhere near as scary as people kept saying. I'll watch it again in a few months and see how it is when removed from the hype.

I hate movies without exposition. I know, I know the viewers imagination is scarier than anything the makers could put on the screen. But I want a shared experience not a hundred different interpretations. I want solid lore not head canon. Though prequel origin stories are terrible in most cases. So I guess I’m just unsatisfied with everything.

The girl died on that beach the beginning. Was that the same beach that they all went to to hide out? Bares nothing to the (many) plot holes. I was just wondering.

i think one part just simply showing that she wasn't prepared for a monster chase and clearly wasn't expecting what was happening, and one part symbolism of hypersexualized horror victims that runs through the film and the victims. it's usually in the form the creature takes more so than the victims, but it's a thematic link.

Conceptually It Follows borrows from Curse of the Demon (1957). The curse is passed on through runes instead of sex.

I think Hugh gets a lot more crap than he actually deserves. Yes he purposely gave Jay the curse, but Jay & Paul at least considered doing the same thing (And may have we don't know). Yes he infected Jay to protect himself, but I don't think he's a bad guy. He does warn Jay about the curse, although there is the benefit of buying him more time, however at Hugh's place I think the scene of them finding Hugh's porn & used tissues was to show that he isn't going around having sex & accidentally infecting someone. He only has sex with Jay after he realizes that it's following him again. Despite wanting to save himself, he didn't want to be responsible for killing someone else.

yeah, i don’t think that he’s a villainous character, just someone stuck in this same situation. i feel like, at least, the movie characters feel this way too, as they don’t seem to upset with him when they’re all talking to him.

Could the person being chased survive in a large metal grated home with only small holes in it? What it the creature literally had no way of getting in?

I think the creature from it follows might draw from a very specific pool of people, that pool being its previous victims and those who’ve had sex with their current victim. (This would explain why the girl doesn’t want to tell her sister that who she’s seeing is their father because she was a victim of sexual abuse by their father, the same could be said of the boy who sees his mother.)

I’m pretty certain that the film wants us to think the girl in the opening just gave up. I always thought it was pretty blatant and not really something people would be confused about.

Calling BS on the Director when he mentioned space. How the hell does a slowly walking creature traverse space??? Can it fly? Then why doesn't it? Given parents behaviour in horror movies, it's probably beneficial that they are absent. They'd probably drug her and put her to bed. Perhaps it wouldn't kill the original cursed, their curse would be that anyone they slept with would be doomed.

Question 9, it's never stated that there is only one entity. Perhaps it is another one on the trail of a person hiding in their attic. A person afflicted with the curse may be able to see all entities within sight.
