“The Follower” (** out of four) was a so-so thriller about a famous singer (Erika Christensen) whose plane crashes in the wilderness and the only other survivor (Bethany Lauren James) turns out to be an obsessive fan and a serious sicko who holds and torments her in an isolated cabin while her family and other fans struggle to find her. Solid work from Christensen and James do their best to enrich and enliven mediocre material. Reasonably good fillmmaking can’t hide the fact that this is basically a reworking of “Misery”.
