Decent adaptation, very dated, cringe worthy effects. Worth a look for fans of the book.

A decent made for tv mellow version of King's amazing novel. Though I prefer the new It.

Tim Curry elevates this to a new level, but King's tone isn't frightening.

It's fine as a standalone film, but it broke my favourite aspects of the book.

Stupid fun movie about grownups who are afraid of ballons. Tim Curry is great as Pennywise

Nice movie but the book is so much better.
It (also referred to as Stephen King's It) is a 1990 horror television miniseries based on the novel of the same name. The story revolves around an inter-dimensional predatory life-form that is simply referred to as "It", which has the ability to transform itself into its prey's worst fears allowing it to exploit the fears and phobias of its victims, while also disguising itself when hunting. The main protagonists are "The Losers Club", or "The Seven", a group of social outcasts who discover "It" and vow to destroy him by any means necessary. The series takes place over two different time periods, the first when the Losers first discover "It", and the second when they're called back to defeat "It", who has resurfaced. "It" mostly takes the form of a sadistic, wisecracking clown called "Pennywise the Dancing Clown", which it uses to lure children and kill them. It takes place in the fictional town of Derry, Maine, USA between the two aforementioned timelines; 1960 and 1990.
