Stephen King's "IT" teaser trailer is finally here!

I just saw this as I was perusing the internet yesterday and I can't believe it,-no pun intended-, it is finally here...the NEW! teaser trailer for Stephen King's "IT" has finally arrived.

Every time so far when I go onto any internet websites to see if there is any new news about this new adaption of Stephen King's "IT" all I've been getting is loads of info that I've already written about on here like who the director is , how the actor that was going to play the lead role of Pennywise left and Bill Skarsgard is now going to play the lead role of Pennywise the evil clown, and that loads of film critics have been going to see this trailer already and then describing how it's really scary and that readers of their website or fans of Stephen King's novel will love this new adaption...but frustratingly they've not put up on their websites the actual teaser trailer and instead just say we the readers will just have to wait...that is until now...thank god!

Here's the YouTube link to have a little look at it if you dare:

If you've read this novel by Stephen King you already know the story but if like me your not familiar with the story of "IT" then I'll try and fill in the blanks:

In the 1990's this novel of Stephen Kings was made into a TV miniseries where the actor Tim Curry played the title role of Pennywise.

Stephen King's "IT" follows the exploits of seven children who form "The Losers Club" to get to the bottom of the disappearance of their clubs leader Bill's little brother George "Georgie" Denbrough as well as more and more children mysteriously going missing in their hometown of Derry, Maine all of which have gone missing in mysterious circumstances, all people involved with these kids going missing saying that they saw a clown in a silver clown outfit though, this if you've read this book will know is Pennywise an ancient evil entity that terrorizes children by manifesting itself in to the fears and phobias of anybody but primarily manifests itself in the form of a clown to attract its preferred prey of young children.

I've just read the Wikipedia page on Stephen King's "IT" and I have to say that after reading it I still don't get where the hell the creepy looking house that might as well have a giant "DON'T GO IN THERE!" sign painted across it, as everybody knows that in horror films if there's a weird creepy looking house or building in the film then you probably shouldn't go in as that's where all the bad, most horrific things are going to happen in, fits in this new adaption of Stephen King's "IT"...or I just thought whilst I was writing this if this isn't in the original story then maybe this might have been added to make this even more of a fright fest horror than it already is...if you ask me though if you try and squeeze more things than needs to be just for the sake of more thrills and more scares and it doesn't add anything to the story or the film than it might just turn people who want to pay money to go see this film at their local cinema off as it might just look false and viewers might just be left feeling disappointed as the whole entire time they're sat in the cinema asking themselves "Why the hell did the director do this?, why did they do that?" and they might just think that the director has used too many things like this creepy looking house that is soooo stereotypical of a horror film and that you could definitely see something bad happening there, and therefore they'd feel completely robbed as they were expecting a really good film as the novel of Stephen King's is supposed to be scary enough but they shouldn't have even bothered so this then gets transferred into less people going to the cinema which means less money for the film.

I also just thought that this weird, creepy house in this teaser trailer looks exactly like the cartoon house in Gorillaz new video for their new song "Saturn Barz (Spirit House)". But that's for another blog post.

And more of an opportunity for the film to get spoofed into a "Scary Movie" film.

Anyhew...This will be released in cinemas in the UK according to IMDb.com on 8th September 2017. But if you want to find out what the release date is in your country then go to IMDb.com go to the "IT" 2017 page and underneath the title of this page there will be a  release date click on this and a list of release dates for different countries will come up.
