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.

Smoreni Zmaj I was eleven and I had nightmares for months and was afraid of horror movies and clowns for years. I began to watch horrors again only few years ago and clowns still give me the creeps. Almost three decades later I decided (not to say I gathered courage) to see "It" again. Thank you for childhood trauma, Stephen.In the small town, where children are disappearing and being murdered, a group of boys and one girl joined forces to fight evil and became friends for life. Decades later, the killings begin again, and they leave their lives and gather in their home-town to defeat evil once more. The movie alternates between these two timelines, which is typical of Stephen King's style. There are other features of the "King of Horror" - a childhood trauma, an evil that lurks hidden behind the facade of a quiet town, ordinary people (often children) who, with their mutual trust and unselfish sacrifice, win victory over supernatural forces. The acting is good, especially performances of the children, but Tim Curry steals the movie in the role of Pennywise, character that will make you hate clowns forever.7/10

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.

Kyle Swanson Just recently saw the new film adaptation of Stephan King's "It" but before I can write an review on that, I think it would be necessary to review this one first. The one that is pretty much overshadowed now by its remake's success, the mini-series from the 90s that gets a-lot of mixed reviews as years followed, even now with the new one being released, some say it was good, some say it bad, me however, I'm in between about the film, as I do got a-lot of credits to give this movie for, I do however, have a-lot of complaints about it.Basically the plot is that in this small Maine called "Derry" have a history of missing children, one of which is the younger brother of one of our main characters, Bill Denbrough, Georgie who was proved to be dead, and soon the actual abductor/killer of these kids, who is a being that can turns into certain things that often feared children, especially a clown that is often turned into named "Pennywise", and then started to threaten Bill by revealing he's next, along-side other children such as a obese nerd Ben Hanscom, asthmatic Eddie Kaspbrak, Jewish Boy Scout Stanley Uris, loner Beverly Marsh, Comic Richie Tozier, and African-American Mike Hanlon, and soon these kids would come together and fight this unknown being and once they thought it was dead, they all later moved-out of the town as Adults to moved-on with Life, except for one who believes in a possibility of it's returning. Years later, strange things started happening again in which children are back disappearing which leads to a proved factor that it wasn't dead after-all and that these kids (Now Adults) must back together and fight it again, this time tries to really kill it.The movie good stuff is from the kids' characters which lead to one of the bad things to mention about this movie with them as Adults, now each kid have a almost the exact good quality about them, being interesting to watch, and having such great scenes. Although I do have couple of complaints about this. One is the female lead, Beverly, now its not a issue of the fact she's ain't a redhead in this film like she was in both the book and the remake, but the downfall is that she not like her Tomboyish character shown in the book, which is a-bit of a downfall look at this. It more sense that she's a tomboy because she the only female character of the group of kids and she not portray as one, although her abusive father was shown in this film and their relationship was well-done I guess. The second complaint is this one scene with Eddie in which he encountered Pennywise in the shower room, now the problem with this is that the scene just ends, as it just went back to the current time, like what the hell, are we supposed to use our Imagination or what, like this was no excuse what-so-ever. Now the one character that really do the best out of all of these characters was Pennywise himself. Tim Curry who plays him, did a great job, now the newer one is more superior than this one, but still seeing his scenes in this film, in both the first half and the second are absolutely great and a-bit amusing to watch. The second is kinda like just a downhill of the film, with the adults just boring and a-bit uninteresting to watch, and despite we do have Curry there, he can't even saved the film. Now I'm not going to complain about the bare use of Gore, as this was a made-for-TV film, so I'm just going to let this slid. The scares in this film, looking at it now I still kinda see how its creepy, but I don't really feel scare about seeing this so, it would make sense as it just a made-for-TV movie.Over-all this film was just mediocre, I kinda don't understand why they didn't even do the idea that the people behind the remake are doing by cutting it into two parts, one being the kids, and the other being the adults, all in theatrical, but oh-well. If you haven't see this film which is understandable, I suggest checking-out the first part, and as watching the second part just goes to where Pennywise is shown, now that what is worth seeing in that half.
