  1. ‘IT’ very carefully and consciously avoids the edge-of-the-seat jump sequences while keeping the horror element intact in the entire movie. The idea behind the consternation of ‘It’ is not a human or doll possessed by an evil entity. The fear factor is derived from the darkest and deepest fears of the seven children in Derry.
    This movie almost perfectly blends horror with comedy and thus gifts a fresh flavour to the genre!!
