Best of 2017/18 - #9 (Tied) It Follows

This week on Pod Sematary, Chris and Kelsey talk about slow-moving killers that stalk people for having sex!

First up is the sequel to the classic rip-off of Halloween, 1981's Friday the 13th Part 2! Jason makes his first appearance as the villain of the series and still does have his mask, but boy does he have mommy issues. Will he be able to resist getting revenge when an entire camp counselor training facility opens up on the lake on Friday the 13th? No. Of course he won't.

Then it's on to 2014's It Follows, one of the best horror films of the past decade. A shambling terror stalks a line of sexual partners. What can a couple of teenagers from Detroit do to stop it? Can it be stopped? We often talk about "What now?" endings, but for the beautiful, nostalgic, and melancholic It Follows, that question is the entire point of the movie.
