With an 83 on Metacritic, a 96 on Rotten Tomatoes and 7/10 from IMDB users (just to pick a few measures) there are very few It Follows "haters" out there in the world.
While I stand by my criticism that it is sloppy at points, I also said I LIKED the movie.
And what's this you say? Movies aren't made to suit just me? Boy have I wasted the last 30+ years of movie watching.
But there ARE people who hate the movie, and that's perfectly fine. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion. Not everyone who hates It Follows will let the world know on some website, so there could be more of them. As for you saying you liked It Follows, awesome! I never said you didn't like it. All I said is, someone on the board said it was sloppy. I couldn't remember their name but I didn't want to bother getting their name because I didn't want to seem like a bully. Lastly, I stand by what I said. Movies WERE NOT made to suit just you!
If you like It Follows, FANTASTIC, but do you really think that any of the cast or crew of It Follows knows that you exist? It is merely good fortune that you liked it and not the sole intent of the movie. With over 6 billion people on Earth, there is just no way to please everyone. While a LOT of people love It Follows, the fact remains is, the crew of the movie didn't make it with a specific person in mind from these forums. At least most Horror movies are made with a specific fan following in mind, and not one single, specific person. You are one of millions or billions of Horror fans. Not all Horror fans are alike. Some like old school, black and white Horror. Some find it boring. Me personally, I love a wide variety of Horror, and it takes a TRULY crappy film to make me hate it (looks at The Blair Witch Project). One of my favorite things about It Follows is its simplicity. It's a group of teens on the run from a mysterious walking "being". Simple, but OHHHHH so effective!! My love for this movie is DELICIOUS!!!
