A new horror classic for millenials to enjoy..

Rating: 8/10 (11 February 2018)

When the book came out in 1986, it was a hit. When the miniseries came out four years later, it was also a hit. When part one of a two part movie series came out last September, it became a mega hit. This movie is worth a buy if you're a fan of horror films based on Stephen King's best selling books. While not as good as The Shining, It is worth watching for the costume design, which sadly wasn't nominated for Oscars. It's definitely not for kids under 17 despite featuring a cast that's mostly underrage kids hanging out in a small town in the late 1980s (as opposed to the 1960s setting of the book and the miniseries). Shot mostly in Canada , this modestly budgeted film packs scares, laughs, and drama into a true horror classic that will be seen again and again for years to come. You'll float too.
