Even after the film (quite entertainingly) explains itself, it never feels like more than a howl of frustration and cynicism.
Today, A24 has released the trailer for David Robert Mitchell’s follow-up to It Follows.

Mitchell discussed with us the origins of the spellbinding It Follows, his thematic fixations, and his relationship to genre.
Though visionary, the film abounds in undigested ideas and dubious sexual politics.
Unlike many of its similarly scaled brethren, the Sarajevo Film Festival is very much at one with its host city: equal parts up-and-coming and garrulous, and the product of oft-divergent influences.
The film likeably recognizes that all of the adolescent epiphanies worth rendering in film must be represented non-verbally.
