The set-up is simple, a young teen sleeps with the wrong guy and is transmitted with some sort of nightmarish curse that...well...follows her in the form of some pretty nasty sort of folk. Primarily it's a coming-of-age story that channels John Hughes, if he fancied butcher knives and gouged-out eyes, but it packs the scares something fierce with a refreshing twist with some killer Carpenter-esque camerawork to boot. With it's stingy synth score, old timey cars and minimal use of modern technology, this could easily be pulled out of the early '80's but it's most definitely this day and age in the dying lands of Detroit.
Bring a couple pairs of clean undies with you because you're guaranteed to be needing them.
