Great King/Horror Adaptation!

Rating: 7/10 (9 September 2017)

Bill Skarsgard, Jaeden Lieberher, Jeremy Ray Taylor, Sophia Lillis, Finn Wolfhard, Chosen Jacobs, Jack Dylan Grazer, Wyatt Oleff and Nicholas Hamilton star in this 2017 horror remake of the 1990 TV film and based on Stephen King's novel. This takes place in the summer of 1989 in Derry, Maine where we meet a group of kids, Bill (Lieberher), Ben (Taylor), Beverly (Lillis), Richie (Wolfhard), Mike (Jacobs), Eddie (Grazer) and Stanley (Oleff). They all become terrorized by an evil presence in the form of clown, Pennywise (Skarsgard) who lives off their fears and try to fight against him. Hamilton plays bully, Henry Bowers. This is a great adaptation with terrifying, humorous and dramatic moments. Skarsgard gives a devilish performance just as creepy as Tim Curry, the rest of the cast is good as well as the score. One of the better remakes I recommend.
