Some of the mini stories describing the atrocities the people made in the past are scarier than the monster. At least that’s how I remember it, it’s been many many years since I read it but there’s a few unforgettable things about it that YOU WILL NEVER see in any film version of it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spidey Freak Posted June 28, 2018 Share Posted June 28, 2018 Wow, missed opportunity to not cast Bryce as Audra. But from the looks of it, doesn't seem like they were willing to pay up for her anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if you forget about THE ONE THING THEY WILL NEVER SHOW , youre so right, there's so much more to the book that could never be explained or illustrated in the film. I was a tad disappointed they didn't do the Ritual of Chud. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jess Weixler, who doesn't resemble Chastain but she's her real life BFF and also featured with her (and McAvoy) in that Disappearance of Eleanor Rigby movie. Apparently Weinstein tried to get Chastain to pimp Weixler for him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTW, I don't remember Audra much from the book, but was she supposed to resemble Bev? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMO, that's better cause people may get confused thinking they were sisters or something. Average audience isn't the brightest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mojoguy Posted June 28, 2018 Share Posted June 28, 2018 Audra didn't look remotely similar to Bev in the IT miniseries. The writers just don't want that in the new movie because it is kind of gross when you think about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dudalb Posted June 28, 2018 Share Posted June 28, 2018 Not directly connected, but sad news for all fans of horror literuature: Harlan Ellison just died;one of the best practioners of the horror short story in history. If there is a story scarier then "I Have No Mouth And I Must Scream" I have yet to read it. Also a close friend of Stephan King. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
