I'll withhold judgement until seeing the film. But ya, my first impression was too effeminate.

If they can put into a film what I enjoyed about It the novel, then that would be incredible.
The photo is just as cheesy as any other scary clown cliche.

I don't know man, I'd like it to at least be a little bit scary.

Yeah you all do remember that the main villain was played by Tim Curry, right? The man is camp personified.

The first one was way too "made for TV-ish". And using John Boy, Venus Flytrap, Judge Harry, Jack Tripper, etc. absolutely ruined the 2nd half. There were some decent moments during the kid half though.

Well it was a horror movie pretty much made to scare children. Cause those are the only people Stephen King can scare.
