It Follows is the story of a supernatural STD of sorts. Essentially if you sleep with an "infected" person you then become the target of a slow walking creepy demon and the only way to sort of get rid of it is to have sex with someone else and pass the curse. The kink is that if that new person is killed by the ghost/demon thing then it start going back after you. There are many really neat things about this movie but it falls short of the masterpiece many have made it out to be. The slow and steady suspense of the pursuit actually was one of my favorite things about this movie. But there were a few parts that dragged on to me and Bat took issue with the movie not following it's own sort of rules. Overall we both gave it a 3/5 and would recommend it to horror/suspense fans.
This week's recommendation comes from TK. He is having us watch The Infiltrator
which stars Bryan Cranston... and that is literally all we know about this one. So come and watch this movie with us on Amazon Video.
You can suggest a streaming movie that you want us to watch and review on future episodes that are on Hulu, Netflix, Amazon Prime or HBOgo.
