A new trailer for the upcoming "IT" movie hit the internet a couple of days ago. Between the labeling of it as the first official trailer and some of the opening bits, I thought this might just be one of the ones I've already talked about. Thankfully, that wasn't the case as the trailer does establish its own identity as it progresses forward.
Admittedly, it's been a while since I sat down and watched the previous trailers, but it seemed like this one did the best job of establishing the creepy atmosphere that you look for. Even the repetition of "you'll float too" was much better executed here than it was in the earlier trailer.
We actually do hear some lines from Pennywise this time. I think it helps, though I still don't think we've seen enough to really judge how good he's going to be. I want to be blown away, but so far it hasn't really left much of an impression. I know Tim Curry's performance is a high bar to jump, but I'd like to think that he'll pull it off. We do get a few creepy shots of him here and there, so that instills some hope....which is pretty ironic if you think about it.
I'm glad the trailer doesn't just walk you through the plot. Still, it alludes to quite a few plot points. That's not an easy balance to pull off, so well done on that front.
This comes out September 8th. That's coming up quick. Here's hoping it works out.
