A fun and freewheeling psychological thriller about a livestreamer and aspiring actress who accepts a Craigslist gig to help a male screenwriter finish his horror script. When the location turns out to be a cabin in the woods, though, all bets are off, and she must fight for her life and reputation. —M.G.


To post or not to post, that is the question. For Jess, it’s never really a question. Although she’s an aspiring actress, her life exists online, performing almost constantly for her millions of followers. She scours internet classifieds for any opportunity to mine content and responds to questionable job ads, most of which turn out to be kinky encounters. But she’s a willing participant. In reality, her clients are the unwitting product. Jess secretly films each interaction, exposing the true nature to her growing audience. With her account on the verge of monetization, she finally receives a seemingly legit screenwriting gig from a mysterious man in a lavish cabin upstate. As the red flags appear, Jess realizes she’s not the only one with ulterior motives. A sleek thriller about the pitfalls of seeking internet fame, FOLLOW HER is a surprising game of cat and mouse…but which one is Jess? —D.O.
