Info

Things are not right in the small American town of Derry: half a dozen children have been murdered or are untraceable. “It” – evil – is once again playing its bloody game in the form of the clown Pennywise, just like it did thirty years ago. Seven teenage friends, known as the “Losers Club” and all of them ridiculed outsiders, were only able to defeat him because they remembered their common strength and used supernatural powers. Only one of them remained in Derry: librarian Mike Hanlon. He brings the group back together to fulfill an old vow. Deep down in the sewer labyrinth, the men once again face their fear of horror personified.

Stephen King's It Audience Reviews

Incannerax What a waste of my time!!!
Ploydsge just watch it!
Solidrariol Am I Missing Something?
Dirtylogy It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.
Paul Magne Haakonsen The 1990 version of "IT" most certainly has a good story, and this is definitely a good interpretation of the novel.However it just suffers from catering to a too broad audience in terms of having a fairly low rating, because a lot of scenes could have been so much more convincing with more graphic details of violence and horror.Good and wholesome entertainment, and the movie (or mini-series, as it actually is) never really ages or becomes boring to watch. I have watched it many times since 1990 and still revisits it every now and again.There is lots of value to the movie which, makes it a movie you can watch again and again."IT" has a very nice cast and they performed quite well. Tim Curry was so well-cast for the role of Pennywise, and brought his devilish charm and wits to the character. While Pennywise in this version is nowhere as diabolical or evil as in the 2017 remake, then Tim Curry certainly gave a lot of children nightmares back in the 1990s.
Alexandr Orlov An awkward statement. ridiculous manifestations of antagonist and his behavior, as if this is not an evil force, but some kind of domestic hooligan. The behavior of a woman is stupefying(first she kisses one, then throughout the movie, constantly in the arms of another).
davekeanu Now this is how you do a good horror film with no Cgi grafts but with good writing I have always wanted too see this movie as it look really good and what to say I really enjoyed it Tim Curry is great as pennywise the clown and he does a fantastic job at it while it may not be as good as the novel its still wroth watching soundtrack is very well done giving it a very spooky tone Stephen King has blown me away again with his movies and this is What I call a good horror film horror films in the 90s where at their finest as it was the golden era of horror films. Now I have heard about the 2017 remake and I plan to watch it but while it be as good as the original only time will tell fantastic horror film from the begging to the end 10/10
Kevin Gunn My girlfriend and I watched most of "It" the other evening while on vacation in Eureka Springs, Arkansas. I'd read and enjoyed the book not long after it came out and had watched the miniseries in 1990. My girlfriend had read the book but didn't recall it clearly. While I have no bones to pick with Tim Curry's interpretation of Pennywise, or with the other actors, I was somewhat puzzled with the sharing of the asthma inhaler prior to the children going underground after Pennywise. I realized that was the substitute for the 12-year-old girl realizing the only way the group of kids was going to get OUT of the sewers was by having sex. In the novel, there's nothing erotic about the sex, but many reviewers of the book complained about it, anyway. Stephen King said in his mind it was about bridging the gap between childhood and adulthood. I told my girlfriend, who has asthma, does that mean sharing your inhaler is the same as having sex? I shouldn't be so hard on a made-for-TV movie, but Hollywood manages to botch books in a variety of ways.
