Will The Horror Hit IT FOLLOWS Get A Sequel?

David Robert Mitchell's film It Follows has been making waves in the horror community since its 2014 debut, and the film was so successful in limited release that distributor Radius TWC is rolling the movie out to wider audiences, so you can probably find it in a theater near you. I know Joey liked the concept but wasn't a big fan of the final movie; I saw the film last week and appreciated the John Carpenter vibe and '80s feel, but I definitely see where Joey's coming from: I don't know if the movie is quite the instant classic that everyone's making it out to be. There's a lot to like in it, but I didn't fall head over heels with it like a lot of our colleagues did.

EW spoke with Radius TWC's president in a new interview, and despite the movie's ending, there are talks of a sequel:

“I don’t want to give away too much, but we’ve thought about it. Flip the title. There’s so much you could do.”

Follow It, huh? I can actually see how that'd be a natural direction to go — have the kids track the history of the sex demon back through their sexual partners to discover where it originated and maybe destroy it once and for all. It'd be a pretty cool idea, and one that would have been a little too ambitious to cram into the original story.

Have you seen It Follows? What did you think about the movie? Would you be down for a sequel?
