IT: Welcome to Derry

Grandpa Hanlon is for sure getting strung up by the Legion of White Decency at the end of this.

I like the opening credits.

I watch this shit to see Pennywise fuck with people. skin sheets -> "birthing" then almost eaten by a vagina was fucking crazy lol. That shit was great. Then sentient pickles almost getting that other kid. 10/10.

The rest who cares. More of that shit and I have something dumb fun to watch. They keep hinting at an event like the Mist and tentacles dragging people away in it. Thats why I watch. Fanfic about Dick Hallorann doesnt put me off or make me mad lol.

Lame the first 2 episodes dropped on Fridays and then they switch to Sundays starting with episode 3.

I was worried the middle would be shit and it is indeed shit.

Surfin' Dracula continues.

Major Hanlon, you're the perfect man for our operation. We've discovered a supernatural entity that can cause you to literally shit your pants to death in fright. We're going to use it against the Ruskies and we need your immunity to fear to do it. Go ahead and move in to town within IT's sphere of malign influence. Bring your wife AND YOUR 12 YEAR OLD SON WITH YOU in to it's hunting grounds during an active cycle when we're getting news reports on the daily about missing and murdered kids.

Episode 4 was better but Freddy Krueger presents To Kill a Mockingbird is still a weird fucking premise. Maycomb Alabama had an Elm Street. Who knew.



It's a major plot point now that Ronnie's dad was sleeping with a married white woman and is afraid of being lynched, in Maine, over it.

One of the convenient aspects of the story that King wrote is that IT's favorite form when just clowning around is Pennywise, a Bozo-esque figure, brought to life in the made for TV movie by Tim Curry's excellent performance. The source material did not call for extensive makeup appliances or other special effects. It was the power of the performance that made it all work rather than expensive gimmicks. What I'm getting at is that it was cheap. Really, really cheap. In the book we have appearances from all the Universal monsters. Dracula, the Wolfman, the Mummy, the Creature from the Black Lagoon and Frankenstein all make appearances. No big money there either. The 2017 version was gussied up but it was still a lot of a dude in a clown costume.

The IMDB page lies a lot but



is one hell of a fucking whopper. Instead of having an actor play the fucking clown we get one large effects shot after another. It's baffling. Episode 3 had a blurry photograph of something maybe Pennywise shaped. Episode 4 has maybe Pennywise in shadow for a split second sorta maybe. That they decided in production to make it some big money shot to have Skarsgard in the fucking makeup I don't get at all. Halfway through and he's just not there.
