Movie IT - views, reviews

I was not a big fan of horror movies. When a colleague of mine invited for this movie called IT, I was like why not try it.

This movie is set in 80`s in a beautiful town called Derry, Maine where there is a mysterious case of kids going missing and the people are clueless with a clown behind it.
This film is a adaption of Stephen King novel and interestingly enough, there are internet references to clown related terror and murder in the 80s too.

In the movie, the clown preys on people who are afraid, alone and with no friends.
The story tells of the magnificent 7 kids who go out to solve this mystery and how their friendship keeps them together.

I went to the movie with the intention of not expecting anything and it would be just another horror movie with a handful of horrifying scenes
Well, it was! to begin with.
But then as the story unfolds, I thought there is also a parallel to some life based realities where as one grows older, you tend to be hard on the kids. The kids in-turn go lonely, fearing who are exactly the kind of people the clown is after.

The kids` acting in the movie is pretty good. I liked the way Derry as a town was shown in the movie too -its tidy roads, kids of bikes, adventure spots and some such good things.

Sound effects really weren't that great but some scenes are really well shot.

The movie is definitely worth watching once!
