My best mate also nearly cried watching IT just when Pennywise was on the screen, not even doing anything "scary".  |
How peculiar
, it just feels like it's a fear that's more hyped up now with killer clown pranks and crazy clowns in horror movies.
The original Pennywise played by Tim Curry was actually hilarious to me
, there were moments that were creepy but him as the clown with his one liners and his silly antics just made me LOL rather than fear him.
I know in the new IT movie they've made it darker.
