It Follows (2014)

Cool concept (though quite Ringu-ish), and very well made, though it was irritating how often characters who absolutely knew this thing was real weren't half as careful as they should have been, and it just doesn't have an ending so it goes with the standard Freddy Krueger one (looks like you killed it! But did you?!?!). Also, it's not the film's fault, but I think the thematic resonance has been severely overstated by critics who want to sound clever (it's a supernatural STD, so it must be a metaphor for STDs! And that's about the extent of it.)

Rating: Pretty good.
