The new IT remake
How did you find it? Personally I did not find Pennywise a chilling antagonist, then again I'm not afraid of clowns at all so I probably wouldn't find any other actor or design frightening for the role. The movie itself I thought was 7/10, I liked the mix of comedy with some genuinely impressive effect work. The side plots involving Beverley's abusive father and Eddie's lonely control freak mother were interesting and enjoyable. I was mostly let down by the scare factor, especially after Stephen King said it was terrifying, and I am not the hardest to scare. I felt like towards the end especially Pennywise became somewhat pathetic and laughable, while at the start I found him more menacing. Perhaps this was intended. So, thoughts?
