“More successful as a coming-of-age movie than a horror, It still ranks among the better Stephen King adaptations - no small praise indeed.”~Empire

Aroview: A group of youngsters dread, and dare to tread, toward solving the mystery of why children are disappearing in their small town in Maine, leading to confrontation with a mythic evil clown named Pennywise.

Perhaps all too familiar to those weened on Stephen King and 80's teen horrors, this slick, carnival-ride update of the TV mini-series adapted from King's 1986 novel deals exclusively with the "flashback" chapters (transposed here from the 1950s to the late 1980s) with the "adult" present-day chapter to follow in a separate installment.
