Bev's dad couldn't see the blood because adults can't see Pennywise or his tricks, so the homeless people would see the house on Neibolt Street as just a house.

Ah thanks for clearing that up, poor Georgie

To add to the Chapter 2 thing, I'm pretty sure I saw a quote from the director saying they wanted to secure the kids for flashbacks filming. Have you seen the original miniseries/read the book?

Spoiler:

It's set in the "modern" day, and the adults now live in different parts of America, and Bill is in the UK. Mike stayed behind, and rings them to see IT's back. After each phonecall, there's a flashback to when they were kids, ending with them beating it. The second part is mostly about the adults trying to beat IT, with some flashbacks

I just saw it earlier and have to say (although I wasn't a fan of the mini series with Tim Curry),this version was amazing. The acting is top notch. I was surprised they went as far as they did in the scene when Georgie was attacked by Pennywise. You don't usually see many scenes like that with kids. As a whole I didn't find it scary at all. I really can't wait to see the next one and will certainly be buying the blu-ray when it comes out.

Yeah this film sucked, it was boring af.

Saw this on Friday. A bit of a messy plot and kinda boring tbh (at least for stretches of time). Definitely not terrible though as I wasn't completely bored but it was disappointing for what I was expecting. 6.5/10 and that's maybe generous but it wasn't all bad.
