IT was almost perfect until it came to the climax and they turned Pennywise into some sort of spider thing.
All King TV movie adaptations tend to fall apart in the last 15 minutes though.

the tv movie scared the crap out of me
SMH at me being scared by Tim Curry though, a dude dressed in drag in one of his most famous movies

But for real
The Book, the book is so much more f*cked up, and if you got an imagination that lets you visualize everything you read, well yeah.....

But f*cking Tim Curry as that clown bro....f*ck that noise.....never again...I don't care what this remake does, it will not match the sheet absurd terror I felt when watching that, I wasn't even allowed to watch it, I was sneaking it, the whole time I was thinking "I shouldn't be watching this, I shouldn't be watching this, OH F*CK HE'S IN THE LIBRARY, RUN!!!!!!!"

They need to just hire Curry for the remake because no one else is going to be able to top his performance.
And the book is insane. King did some wild ass shyt with those children in the book.

I remember telling my ex-girl I penny wise was why I was afraid of clowns and her kobefacing me because she had never seen "it"

I rented both and let her watch them by herself,by time she finished the first one she was calling me to come over and spend the night cause she couldnt sleep.she was so scared she apologized.

Tim Curry is creepy in some parts of It but he has some really goofy moments that defuse the whole atmosphere. I'm sure it was intentional though.

Dude's an underrated actor overall

never really saw it when I was a lil kid, but I never liked clowns and when my friends told me about it, I had no intentions of seeing it. when I got older I watched it and it was pretty good. curry's a good actor, he did a great job on playing IT
