This movie is absolutely not scary at all and the story is very weak. I'm usually pretty easily frightened, but after watching this I had one of the best nights of sleep of my life. The few good things about the movie are that it has a couple of funny moments and it's pretty well produced.

Fantastic
Imagine Quentin Dupieux filming a remake of It Follows produced by A24 in the charming french countryside. It's just wonderful. This is not a horror movie. It's a comedy and it's actually funny. I've read people found the story weak but the real strength of this picture is found in the layered meaning of the story. The protagonist, a teenager who's just trying to be and to build is future while enjoying life and growing up, finds himself confronted to stereotyped and dreamless adulthood and friends. The metaphor used (the werewolf transformation) brilliantly shows the inadequacy and the rage felt by the hero, alone in his trouble. We once knew that same feeling we had as teenagers when puberty hit, trying to build our own identity. Just brilliant.
Masculine "Carrie" french werewolf
"Carrie" but masculine and instead of stones falling from the sky, the teenager boy is metamorphosed into Lycanthrope (werewolf). Nothing very original, but pictures rural France, with typical characters making a good portrait of this small village. Turns out to be very genuine and fun. I recommend, had a good time.
