On its debut at the Cannes Film Festival in 2014, It Follows attracted as much buzz as Bennett Miller’s wrestling drama Foxcatcher – which went on to garner an Oscar nomination for best picture. This horror movie deals with a curse that is passed on like a sexually transmitted disease and has attracted rave reviews for its originality and cinematography as much as its fright factor, thanks to the skill of director David Robert Mitchell. According to [The List](http://www.avclub.com/article/toronto-2014-day-one-judging-robert-downey-jr-catc-208849), “despite all the fun-to-unpack ideas swirling around Mitchell’s premise, this is first and foremost a showcase for his considerable talents as a widescreen visual stylist, which are most apparent in the movie’s deftly choreographed, virtuoso 360-degree pans”. It’s not short on spine-chilling moments though. [Total Film](http://www.gamesradar.com/it-follows-review/) claimed that it’s “a horror film that will haunt your waking hours for weeks. Every frame of It Follows is stamped with nameless dread.” Released 27 February in Ireland, 13 March in the US and 27 March in Sweden.
