It (1990)

I watched this film, based on the Stephen King novel about a supernatural murdering clown who terrorizes the children of Derry, just for the cast. Tim Curry is perfectly wonderful as the clown Pennywise. The horror is mostly not there, but having a creature that only appears to those who believe in it has some powerful psychology. I enjoyed the bits of bonding between the outcasts of the Losers’ Club as children in the 1960s, but really loved them as adults rediscovering that bond. And that cast of adults is great: John Ritter, Tim Reid, Harry Anderson, Richard Thomas, Annette O’Toole, and Richard Masur. It’s definitely TV level fare, but not a bad way to spend 3 hours even with some goofy special effects.
