Creepiest scene?

Definitely this scene for me. The fact that Georgie is so naive about the danger makes it much creepier too.

Should also add the blood coming out of Georgie's photo and the wink. Extremely unnerving!

But yes both scenes you you both mentioned are very creepy as well.

@OldFriendOfTheChristys:

Hell yeah.

Good pick. One of my favorites.

Mischief. Mayhem. Soap.

The scene with the little girl at the beginning is scary. She is so innocent and we all know there is trouble when we see the clown but she smiles so big. Watching this as a parent it's even more terrifying. Then the mom can't find her.

This. Definitely the creepiest one.

Whores will have their trinkets.

Yep. It doesn't get much scarier than that, but thankfully it's there or thereabouts for the majority of the film.

I also love the part after adult Belv runs away from her old house and we see Pennywise clowning at the door for a bit before going inside. For all its lack of scariness, I still find it unsettling.

It's the only part of the film that is creepy just because it's a clown, because I don't find clowns that creepy on their own.

Because he feeds on fear - scaring the kid was a 5-star meal for him.

what about the scene where pennywise turns into a doberman pincher and is about to kill koontz that one was really scary but i was used to it

Richie with the werewolf and Pennywise in the school basement. Especially when Pennywise taunts Richie with It's razor-sharp fangs. -Then begins to advance! I was just thinking, I wouldn't like to get eaten/die down there...

Here is one thing creepy about the bathroom scene. After all the blood comes back and we hear the clown chanting you will die if you try. What he says is not so creepy it's the distorted voice. It's bubbly and sounds like he is talking in the water. Not to mention the bloody water bubbling from the drain and moving to the sound of his voice. And in my opinion here is the creepiest thing about the first scene with the little girl. First we see penny wise with a smile then the sheet flows in front of him. And then in the next split second we see him he is glaring at the little girl. You can see the look on her face when she also sees that sneer. A few people have complained that penny wise was not like the book and that in the book he was more subtle. I thought penny wise was creepy in the film. I read the novel a while back and cannot say whether or not he seemed different than the movie. I heard in the remake something about them toning down the clown creep thing and making it more a manifestation of their fears. I want them to keep the terrifyying idea of penny wise in clown form most of the time. Also one of the best scenes in the film was penny wise in the photo album. When i really think about it rationally it is not one of the most action packed scenes but it came across so creepy. The fact that penny wise is just creeping along in the background. It's almost like i was thinking that the kids were asking for him to notice them by staring at him and getting his attention. Almost like why not shut the album right away. Guess they were mesmerized. Another creepy thing about this scene it makes me wonder if in that album scene did all the others see him as part of the show or were th kids looking at the album the only ones who could see him. It's creepy to think of the people in the album doing there thing and seeing it and thinking he was a normal clown.

Yes, the Chinese restaurant scene. It highlighted how It didn't even need to focus on 1 person's fear to attack, but It could attack them *all* at the same time each with something different if It wanted. The scattered blood, the roach and crab claw thing both running around, the eye watching them, the dying baby bird, and the emerging spider... something for everyone.
