A thought on It Follows [SPOILERS]...

Posted by: numbersix_99 on Jan 12, 11:58 in response to islander's post Yep, its not bad bad, just didnt work for me. also it...

... I don't think it says "teen sex is bad", or that certainly isn't the theme of the film. It's playing with the idea of impending, unstoppable death, and how we deal with it. Remember, it's sex that stops it, not sex that causes it. The final image solidifies that. Throughout the film the characters are wary of who to have sex with, are tormented by it, and ultimately they realis the importance of sex with meaning, which is the only way to come to terms with that impending sense of death.
