I have yet to watch it, but reading the book was unnerving

I did not think you would, why are you afraid of clowns?
Because I saw IT when i was younger. And after I saw the film, my older siblings used to scare me about clowns.
and then there was an incident in Wal-mart where this clown was following me and my family around... or at least to my 8 year old mind it seemed like he was. 
They have weird makeup.. what's with the white face paint? the creepy shoes? or that weird eye-outline. it's terrifying.
Oh right that makes sense, so it's not just because they're unfunny?
That too.
IT is good. I recommend it. The last confrontation gets a little bit ... mystical, and almost theological, which is kinda irritating, but it's not completely off-putting. Definitely worth the read.
The final scene in the sewer...
That'd be the one. The whole
thing gets a little preachy for my tastes. I mean I get where he was going with it, good v. evil, etc. buuut.... yeah.

I agree, still as you said phenomenal book
A mate of mine rented the film one night when his room mates were heading out, they recommended it ofc. About an hour in he heard a scratching at the window, opens the blind and nothing's there. Naturally a clown pops out and scares the shit out of him
One room mate was dressed as pennywise, the other two filmed it

Lol. Nice.
The movie's ok. Kinda cheesy, but that's to be expected considering it's an '80s flick. And it does have some genuinely scary parts. 4 hours long, too, IIRC.

A beast of a thing, a run time somewhere in that region

Absolutely. A very good film as well.
Gonna give it a rewatch tomorrow night I reckonAlso I was lent 'Withnail & I' and 'la Haine' have you seen these? Are they good? Hal tells me withnail is excellent
Never heard of either.
Withnail is an old 80s comedy about two londoners who go to the countryside for some reason
La Haine is a French film about rioting and violence, that kind of thing. Apparently it's very good
I feel so very hipster now, I'll let you know if they are good

Sounds good. I'm not a huge movie guy, but I'll give just about anything a watch. La Haine looks pretty interesting.
