IT Returns

Anybody seen the new "IT" movie? I remember as a kid watching it(the original) and it scared me shitless.

I think what you may have seen as a kid was not a movie but a 3 part mini-series.
But I could be wrong.

not a movie but a .. mini-series. Originally Posted by tbone2u

The only "it" i remember was a cousin on afternoon syndicated reruns.

But I'm much younger than you old fucks.

TBone sadly you're mistaken. There was a movie, check my link.

I researched it a bit more. There's a movie, a novel, and a mini-series. Therefore, you're partially correct

The link is to the TV miniseries.

Stephen King books and movies are overrated. The only ones that were OK were Salem's Lot and Silver Bullet because both had traditional or iconic horror genre characters. In other words, King retold old horror stories.

Curry is a much better Pennywise because he brought comedy to an evil role similar to Peter Sellers in Lolita. The new version is just gorier and had more CGI effects. You can watch the original mini-series by yourself and really get into. This cannot be said about the new version.

^^^ LOL. I might not have time for 1138 pages when I'm already reading a shit ton in my RW life. Maybe in the future when I have more spare time! I'm watching it Thursday night! Review to come.. stay tuned. Hahaha

There is an original "IT"

The movie was good but not as scary as I expected.
