About This Movie

Follower (2022) takes a simple premise and runs with it, crafting an unsettling atmosphere that lingers. The film follows a woman just trying to enjoy Halloween, but the creepy man she encounters pulls her into a world of dread. It’s interesting how the pacing builds tension; there are moments where the silence is just as chilling as the sudden scares. The practical effects here are noteworthy, not overdone but effective enough to jar you. Performances are raw, especially the lead, who conveys that blend of fear and confusion really well. It's distinctive in how it plays with social themes, exploring the impact of isolation and the trust we place in strangers. Not a lot of films pull that off effectively these days.
