Jay finds herself being followed by something odd after she spends the night with her boyfriend. To say anymore would ruin an unsettling and original horror film that takes a ridiculous premise and turns it into a suspense packed story that s darkly funny and flat out terrifying in places. Director David Robert Mitchell is obviously a John Carpenter fan too but that s no bad thing. Maika Monroe as Jay is a mighty lead.
