Review of It (2017) by Jack97 — 29 Sep 2017
As someone who dislikes 95% of horror films nowadays, I was very pleasently surprised with It. The film uses pychological horror rather than jump scares and it's effective in all the right ways. The sequences where Pennywise is tormenting each kid with their biggest fears where all very well realized.
Speaking of the kids, they where all great. It's also an 80's coming of age movie as well as a horror film, and the 80's feel to the film was another huge plus. All the kids did fantastic jobs and they felt like real kids with real dialogue.
The more the film goes on the more you get attached to them and care about them when certain clown peril comes later on. Overall IT was a fun ride in the cinema, especially for me who dislikes most horror films.
