One of the most terrifying works by acclaimed American author Stephen King finally sees itself come to fruition thanks to Warner Bros. Pictures, New Line Cinema, Vertigo Entertainment, and "Mama" director Andy Muschietti, and that is the supernatural horror classic "It" - which many fans will know as the story of a group of "Losers" who live in the fictional town of Derry, Maine and are terrorized by a shapeshifting creature that preys on children and consumes them after exploiting their worst fears. This film adaptation follows a successful two-part 1990 horror drama series which saw famed English actor Tim Curry take on the role of Pennywise The Dancing Clown, and has remained a memorable scary role of his long storied career in theater and cinema.
Thanks to Warner Bros. Philippines, I was able to enter and experience the 2017 version of "It" - which chronicles the first chapter of the story and gives it a 1980's update to make it modernized and relatable... Eventually setting it up for the events of the inevitable sequel that sees the group of friends encountering the creature again. In the photo above, I am beside both "Old" and "New" versions of Pennywise - both equally horrifying and awesome to look at. Now in theaters, here is my review of "It", and of course beware of potential SPOILERS.
