  • This is a horror movie reaction to my first time watching IT Chapter One, released in 2017 and directed by Andrés Muschietti. Scary movie time! It's good to know what Pennywise is all about and why he is who he is and Bill Skarsgard nailed this performance. These kid actors are also fantastic and Sophia Lillis as Beverly Marsh and Jeremy Ray Taylor as Ben Hanscom are my FAVES. Honorable mention to Finn Wolfhard as Richie Tozier. This movie made me realize that maybe I can handle and enjoy scary movies more than I thought I could. Make sure to stick around to the end of this video for my full thoughts and review and thank you so much for watching! Let me know YOUR thoughts in the comments below!

      This movie appeals to me personally because I grew up in a small town like Derry, (for me it was a town in Louisiana), in the mid 80's as a little kid and 90's as an adolescent and teen. Yeah there were no interest dimensional clown creatures that fed off of fear, then flesh, but there was racism, there were cruel ass older kids, and apathetic parents all around us. This used those very real issue's and combined them with this horrific clown monster, it hits. And I usually hate remakes but BOTH movies are excellent as companions, you should check out Chapter 2

      Girl, I didn't see this one on ur reaction list. I'm kicking myself I missed seeing u watch this when u first posted. Horror is my jam, & just bw us I can tell u have more horror love in u than u think u may have. U can just tell watching how ppl react. Basically, let me make it simpler, watch ur reaction & then do a side by side comparison w our gal Cassie on PIB. Cass was fricken terrified and had to go get her hubby to sit w her to even get halfway thru the watch. Thought she was gonna pass out. Yeah, u may love it after a few more good horror movies. Amd one last thing, horror is way more than just silly jump scares. Horror is visceral & raw & amazing story telling w great acting that never gets acknowledged by" society" & so much closer to real life than any other genre if u do even a deeper dive into meanings if that makes sense. Love ur reaction. Plz plz watch chapter 2. The story doesn't make sense or feel at all complete without it. It's like only reading half a book. There is zero closure in this movie & just leaves u hanging. U won't be disappointed.❤💞❤️Thanks, hon, for making me smile!!!😊

      @portalina Před 7 měsíci

      Tim Curry as Pennywise is literally the ONLY redeeming part of the garbage original. Having said that, he’s not particularly scary though. Most people who talk about the original and how great it is haven’t seen that one since they were a kid, lol. There are quite a few reaction channels who did the 2017 IT and some of them watched the original and said it was silly and boring compared to the updated. The original Pet Semitary is vastly superior to the remake though. That’s the benefit of a good portion of Steven King’s movies being remade for the screen. You had decades where most of his movies would come out as made for TV movies or miniseries that were HORRIBLE like The Stand and especially The Langoliers🤮

    In the film it is said that Pennywise makes an appearance every 27 years. The classic version of "It" was released in 1990, 27 years before this one, so that kind of makes the classic version canon in this universe.

  • @scotiej
    @scotiej Před 5 měsíci +2

    Not sure if this was mentioned by anyone else, but IT's presence in the town amplifies people's darker tendencies, pushing them to commit greater and greater cruelties and evils. So when you asked why so many people in the town, especially grown ups are evil, that's partly why.

    I think Ben's nightmare was the scariest. Eddie's relationship with his mom is a perfect example of Munchausen's by proxy. I look forward to seeing your review of Chapter II. The bit with Pennywise dancing became a internet thing where you could see him dancing to many different songs. And when it comes to horror, you build a tolerance. And if you know the 6 rules to surviving a horror movie, I guarantee you'll laugh during the Friday the 13th movies.

    The book is to me the gold standard of stand alone epics. It's more brutal and explicit, filled with intense gore and strange magic. I really enjoyed both parts of this adaptation, but it does lack the mythic, fairy tale vibe of the novel.

  • @CousinWhatIsIt

    I like that comparison of the two different Pennywises. I quoted Curry's lines from the first one for several years and read the book after seeing it on TV and taping it off on to a VCR. I put some audio samples into a mix tape I made as well. As much as I liked IT back then, I would say the newer movies are even better.

    Highly recommend reading the book. It's one of King's best and most epic imo, mixing horror with brilliant fantasy elements. The second film is also good, although I wish the climax had been more faithfully adapted. Definitely recommend watching it, though.

  • @ZackE2541
    @ZackE2541 Před 7 měsíci +1

    I did a quick browse through the first few comments here and didn't see anything regarding the bullies and shitty adults in the town of Derry. The idea is that IT actually permeates this aura that makes people worse human beings. IT is more then just the malevolent being its a whole effect on the town. So yes there are a lot of bullies and shitty people. But they were "sort of" molded into that sort of person. Thats not to excuse their actions but just to sort of point a finger as to why they were the way they were.

  • @cuoresportivo155

    Nothing makes you feel more alive than experiencing fear of dieing and Horror can give you that. So yes I like horro movies, and dystopian future movies for similar reasons. Some I like more than others though.
    And you will love the Stephen King novels and short stories, if you enjoyed this. You read a lot so I don't need to say it but they take you on a trip in your mind, talk about being submerged... and somehow it never seems farfetched once it gets going...

  • @Jumpyman_thegamerYT
    @Jumpyman_thegamerYT Před 7 měsíci +1

    In the novel, there's a lot of detail about Pennywise's origins that was deliberately left out of both movies. The reason being that there's a lot of detail, and I doubt that someone who wasn't already a fan of Stephen King would understand it. When/If you a reaction video to IT Chapter 2, then I'll go into more detail about Pennywise's origins since it would be leaning into spoiler territory if I said anything in too much detail here. Just know that IT is a LOT older than is shown in this movie, and is also not the only one of its species.
    However, the things I can talk about are just as interesting (in my opinion at least). Pennywise is a shapeshifter who can telepathically see into people's heads (mostly kids, though in the novel he does k*ll some adults too) to see what they are most afraid of, then assume the form of that thing. The reason for this (as said in the movie), Pennywise feeds on fear. A quote from the book is 'Fear salts the meat' which essentially means that Fear is like seasoning.
    The reason that the adults ignore anything to do with Pennywise is because of his influence. This makes the kids feel more vulnerable, and they feel like they don't have any support, and so are easier for IT to prey upon. In the novel, the adults are kind of subconsciously aware of IT but his influence makes him 'part of the scenery' if you will. In fact, if anyone (meaning kids who can see him) even mentions that he's there or anything to do with him, the adults will become angry towards the person who mentioned it. They will be extremely dismissive of the idea (again, due to IT's influence).
    There is a cycle in Derry (the town where this story takes place). When Pennywise wakes from IT's 27-year slumber, this causes extreme weather in Derry (the rainstorm that Georgie was in at the start of this movie was not natural). A disaster of some sort will then occur at both the beginning and end of IT's waking state (for example: the Ironworks explosion in 1908, The Bradley Gang in 1935, and The Black Spot in 1962, which were all mentioned in this movie). However, there are many incidents which were left out (refer to the novel for more info). These 'accidents' are deliberately caused by Pennywise as they are a great food source for him.
    Though Pennywise usually revolves around a 27-year sleep cycle and a 1 year feeding cycle, this does sometimes change. Sometimes he will wake earlier than planned, and other times later than normal. Also, the time he is awake for sometimes varies too. Once he was awake for 3 years, constantly feeding (again, refer to novel for more detail, however this is a minor part of the story as it happens before The Loser's Club even exists).
    I hope I have helped, and sorry for the long comment!

    @jennysutton7409 Před 7 měsíci

    I love this movie and it's one of the rare ones that actually scared me and made me jump when I saw it in theaters. The Rock War scene is the most important one in the book because that is what makes them all friends and connects them together as the Loosers Club as it were. Ok let me explian something Pennywise is an antity that is older than the universe and is the darkness to the light. He makes people see their worst fears and then eventually feasts on them once the fear is fully within them. The grown ups in town don't see the things It does because he makes sure of that so once thwy see something they forget about it a moment later as if nothing happened. It also has the ability to bring agression out of people and then use them as pawns to put fear into the hearts of those that don't fall to It's mind tricks as it were and that is why he got Henry to attack the kids for him. Grate reaction and personlly I didn't like part 2 despite the fact that it does have it's scary moments at times, but you might seeing how you didn't read the book and all that.

    A major difference between the book and these films is the book starts in 'modern' day (the 80's at the time the book was first published) and jumps back and forth between modern and 27 years earlier. The 1990 version did something very similar, so in many ways it's best you watched this first and then go back to see the 1990 version. It made more sense movie-production-wise to make the first film take place during the 'past' events and Chapter 2 (mainly) the 'present' events.
    Another major difference between these films and the 1990 version is the 1990 version was a network television two-part miniseries that played during prime time and could - at worst - only be PG rated. Making the story a theatrically-released pair of films allowed the filmmakers to bring out more the essence of the original Stephen King novel - and even then there were major plot points that were too risqué for mainstream media to portray.
    Looking forward to your reaction to Chapter 2 - in my opinion a more enjoyable film than Chapter 1. Once you have seen it I will write about my favorite scene in that film!

    I don't remember where it was explained (possibly it was in this movie), but basically there was a clown called Pennywise in the town at some point when it woke up in it's 27-year cycle and it stole his identity, because it really liked the idea and found it as a fun way to terrorize its victims. It can survive purely on eating them, but it enjoys feeding on people's fear. Especially children's fear.
    IT is some kind of cosmic entity that the in-book explanation just makes more nonsensical, because the rest of that lore never comes into play at any point. Stephen King spent that decade of his life when writing it being high on drugs all the time, so the original ending of this part of the story is significantly more disturbing (and I'm not talking about a part involving Pennywise).

    I think you identified what makes It - Chapter One such a great horror flick - it is very nicely balanced between the horror, comedy and drama. I read the novel before the mini-series came out, and I personally didn't feel it captured the creepiness of Stephen King's written word, but this film (and it's follow up) matched it in my opinion. I hope you watch Chapter Two soon. Really looking forward to your reaction.

    IT was time. SK was great at writing about kids in a certain time and place, about their fears, what it was like to be a kid and the book and movie do a great job of capturing that, dealing with bullies, parents, friendship etc.
    The imagery in this is soo good and Bills Skarsgard as Pennywise just his movements and running toward the camera, the creepiness of his performance is unnerving.
    Playing the role actually had a psychological affect on him and messed with his head. The smile Pennywise does is actually BS smiling. Kaielle 🎈🎈🎈🎈🎈 5 red balloons out of 5, great reaction

    Good reaction. As usual. I recommend you watch "ORPHAN", a film from 2009, which without a doubt, I think will provoke many reactions in you. If you want you can also see the prequel "ORPHAN FIRST KILL". (2022)

    My feelings about this film are complicated. I think it's really well produced, excellently cast, acted, etc. It looks like the Derry and Losers Club I imagined reading the book (which is one of my favourite from King, the book's IT is one of my favourite villains of all time, but that's for another, post-Part-2 comment)
    I love the coming-of-age stuff in the film, the group is great together, and it does creepy really well when it goes for that brand of horror (Showing how It has 'infected' the town, making adults turn away from the bullies' violence, papering over each missing poster with the latest missing kid, and the librarian in the background as Ben reads the history book was top notch) but too often, the film loses confidence in just sticking with the creepiness and defaults to the loud, run-at-the-camera-all-shakey scares. They didn't seem to want a scene to sit, or stay quietly scary, instead they tend to end on Big Scares almost every time.
    I feel it gets in the way of itself too often, tripping over it's own feet a bit.
    But, that being said, I do really like the film. It's a good adaptation of a book that's way too long to adapt into one (or even two) films.
    The casting continues to really impress across both movies.
    (P.S. We have the same BB-8 mug)

    🤡🎈That's a good call Kaielle! Cameron Monaghan would've definitely made a great Pennywise. Apparently, before Bill Skarsgard. Will Poulter was cast as Pennywise. I wonder what that would've looked like 🤔 I can't wait for you to see Chapter 2.

    This version SHOULD have made my coulrophobia (fear of clowns) worse, but shockingly, I was cured of it.
    As much as I LOVE Tim Curry (the original Pennywise actor), Bill Skarsgärd did a better job being fucking scary.
    I can't help but feel bad for Eddie. The way he's a victim of his mother's Munchausen's by proxy. A mental condition that causes parents to purposefully make their children sick or appear sick to get government aid.

    @MoviesandCoffee Před 7 měsíci

    I would have recommended you watched the 1990 version first, only because the movie is much bigger budget and faster paced compared to the TV movie, so watching the 1990 version AFTER might be a little underwhelming in comparison. BUT Tim Curry is still excellent as Pennywise and it's still a great watch. Another good horror by Andy Muschieti is 'Mama' with Jessica Chastain; it basically got him the gig on IT.

    I'm sure someone mentioned this by now but in case they didn't the kids were all asked who they wanted to play them as adults. All the people chosen wanted to play the adult versions of them. Who would you cast as the kid and adult versions of yourself if you were in the movies?

  • @67fremen
    @67fremen Před 7 měsíci

    Reason why the adults were the way they were was pennywise having a hold over the town and affecting everyones personality.
    Film leaves a lot out since novel was over 1100 pages and they had to adapt 1100 pages and stuff got left out and gladly some of it was not put in like the ritual of chud and the boys and beverly which was wrong to begin with.

    I enjoyed the original more, probably because I seen it when it first played on TV. The ending to the original was pretty lame but the acting throughout was well done by some well known actors I grew up watching in different shows.
    This film just had way too much cgi and jumpscares . it became tiresome to endure watching.
