[CLOSED] Enter to win! IT FOLLOWS autographed poster + soundtrack

March 13, 2015

One of the most buzzed-about films of last year’s festival circuit, IT FOLLOWS is a terrifying new take on the teen horror genre. After a seemingly innocent sexual encounter leaves 19-year-old Jay plagued by nightmarish visions, she can’t shake the sensation that someone, or something, is following her. Jay must somehow escape the unknown horrors that are only a few steps behind. With a riveting performance from up-and-comer Maika Monroe (LABOR DAY) and a strikingly ominous electronic score by Disasterpeace, IT FOLLOWS is an exciting follow up to filmmaker David Robert Mitchell’s THE MYTH OF THE AMERICAN SLEEPOVER.

Every great horror flick has a great soundtrack, and IT FOLLOWS is no different. The soundtrack from Disasterpeace is reminiscent of the music from the films of John Carpenter, with a modern twist.

 

Sign up here for a chance to win a prize pack including an official IT FOLLOWS movie poster autographed by writer/director David Robert Mitchell and the original motion picture soundtrack by Disasterpeace.

IT FOLLOWS is now playing at the Angelika New York.

ABOUT THE FILM:
Academy Award nominee Jude Law captains the cast of BLACK SEA, a suspenseful adventure thriller directed by Oscar winning filmmaker Kevin Macdonald (THE LAST KING OF SCOTLAND). Also starring Scoot McNairy (ARGO) and Ben Mendelsohn (ANIMAL KINGDOM), the film centers on a rogue submarine captain who pulls together a misfit crew to go after a sunken treasure rumored to be lost in the depths of the Black Sea. As greed and desperation take control on board their claustrophobic vessel, the increasing uncertainty of the mission causes the men to turn on each other to fight for their own survival.

Inspired by Philip K. Dick’s Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?, the film depicts a dystopian future in which genetically engineered, dangerous replicants are hunted down by special police operatives.
