Message: [QUOTE="Mano, post: 2541419, member: 3300"] [B]It [/B]- I'm not generally a fan of horror movies. I don't really scare easily and the majority of them are usually just subpar in many different aspects. There are some good ones (28 Days Later, Cabin in the Woods, The Crazies, etc) and I find they usually rely on mood and atmosphere with a decent dose of creepiness and misdirection. I'm not a reader of Stephen King's books and I've heard the ending of the book and original mini-series (haven't seen it) are disappointing. They split the original novel into two parts and it seems that it was a wise choice. This though, this was fantastic. It kept me at rapt attention throughout and Pennywise (great performance by one of the Skarsgård's) was a wonderfully realized malevolent creature preying on these kids. His reveal for each individual kid really kept the pace of the movie at a great clip. Really, really good. Can't wait for the sequel, even if it ends up a disappointment. [/QUOTE]
