IT Chapter 2: Why still here Pennywise? (A Moview)

Stanley Uris: [voice over] See, the thing about being a loser, you don’t have anything to lose. So…
Young Losers Club: [voice over] Be true. Be brave. Stand. Believe. And don’t ever forget, we’re losers, and we always will be.

Who forgets the scariest clown of all? Pennywise. Yes, he is the reason why there are scary clowns walking around during halloween.

I was a kid when I watched the first movie of IT (It was released 1990) and finally, they made a new version last 2017 which luckily was followed up by a new sequel this year, the IT: Chapter 2.

The first sequel as we all know, was adapted from the horror-thriller book IT written by one of the greatest writers of all time when it comes to horror and thriller genres, Stephen King. Yes, I’m a fan and I’m actually waiting for the film adaptation of Doctor Sleep which was written also by Stephen King.

IT is about a story of a killer clown who eats scared kids and terrorize the whole town by leaving a mystery of his existence. Seven kids were brave enough to fight Pennywise, saving their town from the menace and after 27 years, Pennywise has return, and kids and youngsters are starting to go missing again.
