It (2017)

- Start date
I don't watch horror which is why I was so excited to see this. Recently watched exorcist on fox and loved it, was hoping this would be dark like event horizon, but ended up feeling campy for me.

problem is creeping dread is a lot easier to pull off over a mini series where you are seeing him a few times in an episode. In a 2 hour movie when he has to show up to at least each of the main characters one or more times there just is a limit to how much creeping that can happen there under those constraints.

That's a good point. I though The Exorcist show on Fox was fantastic, but it was a slow build to full on demon possession. Completely different genre and feel, but I think the idea is the same.

Just saw this because it was on HBO. I'm not a horror movie fan at all but I really enjoyed this. The red haired girl was great and super pretty and I'm sure we'll be seeing more of her. The funny thing was she caught my eye because she plays the younger version of Amy Adams character in Sharp Objects on HBO and then here she is again. I looked her up on IMDB and these two things are basically all she's done and I just happened to see both of them in a week. She seems to have a bright future ahead of her though.

I get that when they were kids they swore to come back and fight IT again if it came back but seriously leave and never come back.
IT (and The Stand) were some of my favourite movies as a teen, but I really hope they change up the ending in this.
Trailer looks great, but the original was also amazing until the last 10 minutes. Nearly 6 hours of tension and horror leading up to a confrontation towards a great evil
Ending would be better if they just entered into the sewer, a flash of white then a little red baloon floating out, then just end it right there. Not read the book, so might be the movie missed the mark, but hopefully the change isn't just going "Oh look how creepy it is now that we can model it with CGI!".

Fear the mechanical ant!
