Stephen King's It Trailers

Things are not right in the small American town of Derry: half a dozen children have been murdered or are untraceable. “It” – evil – is once again playing its bloody game in the form of the clown Pennywise, just like it did thirty years ago. Seven teenage friends, known as the “Losers Club” and all of them ridiculed outsiders, were only able to defeat him because they remembered their common strength and used supernatural powers. Only one of them remained in Derry: librarian Mike Hanlon. He brings the group back together to fulfill an old vow. Deep down in the sewer labyrinth, the men once again face their fear of horror personified.

Reviews
Protraph Lack of good storyline.
BelSports This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
Teddie Blake The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.
Cissy Évelyne It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.
aci-4 Well.. seem few comments, and i have to say that i dont understand ppl that this verison as same as i dont understand ppl that love it and then give it like 6/10 or 7/10 ...I've seen this in the 90s ,and ive seen the new verison as well. Its really hard to say that the new is better when u grew up with this one. Now. i havent read the book nor do i plan to,but i heard theres a part in the book that both movies missed to show lol .. maybe if it was made in the 70s or if ppl wouldnt freak out about everything in this day and age, it would have made it on the big screen ..anyhow, i dont wanna talk about the plot it self .. makes no sence to do that ,theres tons of trailers on youtube for any1 that hasnt seen it yet.But i do wanna talk about the difference between the old and the new .. i with out any doubts prefer the old one. 1.waaaaaaay better actors 2.way better soundtrack and movie music in general 3.the fact that the story is set in the 60s if a recon, fits it way better then the 80s in the new one 4.just the overall feeling, the acting, the scenery the music, the looks of the actors, the way they talk, everything beats the new one everything, it has a soul that the new movies of today cant ever have, u can tell its made with love and passion , it really brings u the overall feeling of Derry it self and what the teens are going trough ,the movie is more realistic not in the sence that it can be real lol but in the sence of how its made, it looks more real ,more humanOverall a great movie that is for sure hard to beat ,without any doubts the best horror movie where kids are involved as the main caracters.
Paul Magne Haakonsen The 1990 version of "IT" most certainly has a good story, and this is definitely a good interpretation of the novel.However it just suffers from catering to a too broad audience in terms of having a fairly low rating, because a lot of scenes could have been so much more convincing with more graphic details of violence and horror.Good and wholesome entertainment, and the movie (or mini-series, as it actually is) never really ages or becomes boring to watch. I have watched it many times since 1990 and still revisits it every now and again.There is lots of value to the movie which, makes it a movie you can watch again and again."IT" has a very nice cast and they performed quite well. Tim Curry was so well-cast for the role of Pennywise, and brought his devilish charm and wits to the character. While Pennywise in this version is nowhere as diabolical or evil as in the 2017 remake, then Tim Curry certainly gave a lot of children nightmares back in the 1990s.

Stephen King's It is was fantastic miniseries between Humans Kids Vs. Imaginary Friend was Boogiemen who running around the town to come after other kids in Derry
DylanW It is often loved by most for terrifying a generation and creating the cult-hit monster, Pennywise the Dancing Clown. Despite the highly praised Part One of the Mini-Series, It is infamous and is ridiculed for an unforeseen and utterly surprising finalé, which, no doubt will leave you wondering. Directed and co-written by Tommy Lee Wallace, (who had also directed "Fright Night: Part 2", "Halloween III", and episodes of "The Twilight Zone") as well as Lawrence D. Cohen, who has starred in writing Stephen King adaptations, debuted with the world-renowned "Carrie" (1976) then "It", followed by The "Tommyknockers" and finally, the remake of "Carrie" (2013). This new installation in Stephen King adaptations was followed by the success of "The Shining", despite Stephen King's opinion, the author of the novel "It".After many children are reported missing or dead, seven children band together to attack the culprit of this heinous crime: a shape-shifting clown who eats children. The idea itself is terrifying, and Pennywise (the name of this murdering clown) is played by Tim Curry who can switch between the murderous intent of a madman, which is perfected in the very first scene, to an inviting, genuinely funny clown which is, in context, creepy enough.Curry's absolutely brilliant performance goes matched with the seven kids who face off against Pennywise, whom we all can feel a sense of relatability. The mini-series Part 1, is fantastic, but, as foretold, the second part is luck-lustre and seems to drag on for a longer-than-necessary amount of time, reintroducing characters that were better off left alone. Despite that, it was much better than expected (possibly because of the familiarity held with the ending) and, in numerous scenes, you can feel the anticipation of that moment which, may or may not be delivered, installing a sense of dread every time you see anybody you don't already know.The mini-series, as expected, does keep the violence and gore to a minimum, but, (partly thanks to a chilling soundtrack by Richard Bellis) the mini-series is, in fact, scary, and it is easy to see how Pennywise has traumatised so many children.
