On this episode of the High n' Dry Podcast, we reminisce about the wild reality show "Bully Beatdown" before diving headfirst into the eerie world of "It Follows." With potent Acapulco Gold in hand and a 60s-inspired vodka martini at our side, we dissect the film's unique take on horror, providing a mix of humor and sharp insights. From its stationary camera shots to Maika Monroe's gripping performance, our conversation brings out the hidden layers of this low-budget thrill-ride.

Our analysis doesn't stop at mere cinematic techniques. We unravel the deeper themes of trauma, fear, and responsibility that make "It Follows" a standout in the horror genre. By comparing it to other films like "Smile" and "Invisible Man," we shed light on the unsettling nature of the entity and its impact on the characters. The moral dilemmas faced by the protagonist, and the allegorical significance of the entity as more than just an 'STD demon,' are laid bare, offering a fresh perspective on the consequences of one's actions.
