IT
I wanted to talk about why "IT" was a success, something already imaginable but was it really the movie that made fame?
The book originated in 1986 by Stephen King. People were fascinated by their suspense and something out of the imagination, A clown-shaped monster that devours children every 27 years? perfect! although people do not really know that "IT" is the counterpart of an Omnipotent Turtle.
The book touches on important topics about racism, child abuse, mistreatment of women and homophobia, as if that were not enough, IT can control the human mind throughout the city, as if it were his. The intense lives of the members of the group "Losers" take adrenaline by Pennywise, the dancing clown. This one is in charge of tormenting them and trying to kill them by means of their fear to him.
The film is different from the book due to the strong scenes that it contracts.
Two Films have been created successfully, several macabre clowns have been inspired by the character Pennywise.
Movies can be entertaining but the book will always fascinate the mind of the author.
