IT

We went to the cinema this afternoon to see IT.  I couldn't remember if I had read the book when it came out.  I won't retell the story, except to say that primarily about a group of bullied youngsters in the small town of Derry.   As well as being abused by the local bullies, all of the kids are being tormented by the spooky clown that terrorizes the local children.

I didn't find it too scary, although there were quite a few jump off your seat scares for the folks seated around us.  I did enjoy the goonies/stand by me friendship theme running throughout the story.  4/5

I'm not a fan of Stephen King. I think I saw this book's tv adaptation and wasn't impressed.
