Very true about the context. Nudity can definitely be viewed as a sensational choice in North American cinema, so I loved how it was presented in It Follows.

It was almost, I dunno, sterile, for the most part.

The few times where nudity was obviously meant to be part of a sexual scene, were to me, some of the most haunting images. Most notably, the few quick seconds we see of Greg's mother "in the act".

First off, I loved It Follows!

Thanks for making a film that hearkens back to the "group of clueless kids use clueless kid ideas to battle the supernatural" ideals of the 80s and early 90s. Reminded me a lot of IT, as well.

More specifically, I liked your usage of odd, non-sexual nudity in this film.

A lot of times with nudity in horror films, nudity can just exist to add a quick flash of skin to the opening scene to keep people watching.

Can you talk a bit about what your influences and intentions were when using the human body as a such an central piece of imagery in It Follows?

Randy, am I incredibly impressed by the new tracks you guys have released, specifically "512". You guys have bottled the lightning again!

It seems to me like 512 was influenced by your time in prison, is that correct? Can we expect to any other songs based on your experience there?

I am very sorry for what happened to you, but as the old adage says "all great art comes from suffering"...
