I don’t know, I’m a fan of the book and all for this being great, but it just looks a little… ordinary. A bit of a run of the mill horror movie, which feels like a missed opportunity given the promise of the source material – which, while far from perfect, taps into something very primal, really terrifying. Hopefully Muschietti nails it, but like most films nerds I’m mourning the version Cary Fukunaga might have made, which will now never exist (and is of course now forever perfect as a result, and will constantly be held up as the film this one could’ve been, even though it might itself have been no good). But given the incredible atmosphere of True Detective – and the creepy way it got under your skin – Fukunaga did seem like an inspired choice for this adaptation.

Actually looks good (and perfectly timed to scoop up the audience primed by “Stranger Things”…)

the only reason that was any bit scary was cuz of the loud music and rapid cutting…otherwise this clowns a bitch and Tim Curry would fuck his ass up.
