Creepy but not because of Pennywise


But because of the pedophilic nature of this movie. Like Beverly being hit on by the pharmacy guy and her dad, and that weird scene where they all undress to their underwear to swim. Icky stuff

You got a boner, didn't you?

I gotta wonder why you are upset at kids undressing to swim. It's kinda normal. But, you are right about the other elements. These kids live in a town where these sort of pedophilic things and all sorts of other evil (normal enough in the real world, unfortunately) are nurtured and encouraged by the perpetual presence of Pennywise. Icky is a correct response and it is just unfortunate that the films are not good enough to get across the sense of a dreadful low-level awfulness lurking beneath the surface of the town of Derry.
