It
Like the 1990 mini - series before it , the Modern version of Stephen King’sItis split into two division . This was a wise choice then and it ’s a wise selection now , eliminating the need to test and thrust over a thousand pageboy of novel into one flick . It ’s also convenient , given that the story takes place over two parallel time - lines – one in which a group of nestling ward off the malevolent Pennywise the Dancing Clown , the other in which their adult counter - role are thread back together to kill him once and for all . And sure enough , theItcurrently in theater is one based around a pre - teen Losers Club , all vernal and filled with vigor ( and more than a few “ Yo Momma ” jokes ” ) , and their battle to overcome the evil entity that ’s been kidnap local kids .
One design choice that may catch some off guard is the inclusion body of a ' Chapter One ' for the film ’s end - screen . sagely , the press smother this has been keeping that it ’s a two - parter on the down - low , which is good to avoid being assuming and to spoil anyone unfamiliar with the source stuff . Inevitably though , a few audience members may be befuddle as to why there ’s going to be another chapter in the saga since these losers utterly , definitely , totally vote down Pennywise the Dancing Clown .
SPOILERS – the club failed , and if you ’re at a loss as to what went down in the last routine and where we ’ll find them inChapter Two , here ’s all you involve to know !
The connective tissue is base on one telephone number – 27 . During the film , Ben discovers that the town of Derry has a bit of an issuing with its children conk out or disappearing . It ’s six times the internal norm , with a grow number of disasters and incidents through - out the townstead ’s history seeming to have caused some spikes . These catastrophes , he finds , happen every 27 years , and the current gaiter of kids vanishing into slight air is go on on the button 27 years after the last undulation ( and in a spooky concurrence , this Modern production has also been exhaust 27 age after the miniskirt - serial ! )
This get the other members of the Losers Club to own up about weird , horrific encounters they ’ve been get . One look his parent burn alive in a butcher shop class , another a strange painting come alive and attack him . The common constituent is that each time , they saw a unusual clown before or after , watching them . After some deliberation , they reach the conclusion that this carnival nut has something to do with all the young people that Derry seems to eat up , and they investigate . Ben ’s research leads to the actualisation all the disappearances have occur over a grapevine in Derry ’s sewer organization , the tunnel all converge on the Well House , a rundown squat on the outskirts of the town built over an old well .
With this revelation , Bill is convinced that he ’ll finally get closure for his blood brother George ’s disappearance in Well House , and the Club seek out the former building to face down Pennywise , and their analogous fears once and for all . In facing him under Well House , they see his lair and the horrors it adjudge . All the bodies of the lack kid are literally floating among a pile of trash It has accumulated , their life push use up by the monster . During the battle , Pennywise almost gets the better of Beverly , but her lack of fear protects her . memorise this , the losers make a standpoint against it , weaken it and sending it into a moody fossa .
As you may have infer , Pennywise is n’t of this Earth . It ’s a animal from another world , and it has been here for an undetermined amount of time feeding on young humans . Using power of shapeshifting and illusion , it draws in its victim before it sucks the life right out them through their fear , leave only a hollow shell behind . For the lucky prey , it utilize a direct glide slope , such as Patrick ’s terrific but fleet capture at the manus of some ghoulish apparitions . For others , it stalks and manipulates their surroundings for sport first , like when Ben sees the red balloon in the backseat of the elevator car that drive by as he ’s being hector , or Bev ’s bally sink incident . The only fashion to block up it as a human is to remain unagitated and not permit concern to verify your mind or actions – not precisely easy when you ’re a teenager and your worst fears are being materialized in front of you in a personalized mood of fear at the beck and call of a murderous dancing buffoon .
Upon guard off Pennywise , the Losers convoke to make a descent accord that if it ever returns , so would they . 27 years from then , when they ’re as old as their parents , if kids start being consumed again , they ’ll come back and they ’ll find a path to finish what they started . Each begins to go their separate way of life , accept that whatever take place in life , they ’ll reelect to Derry , Maine if they need to .
That ’s whereChapter Twowill selection - up , finding each of the Losers as an grownup , 27 years sr. and wise . It ’ll be sometime between 2016 and 2017 , and the Club will be brought back together in the wake of Its motivation to junket again . They ’ll have to if they want to finish it , because they ’re the only one who know enough to get the job done and nobody would believe them if they essay to explain . For now though , the children of Derry are safe - and little do they know they ’ve got a caboodle of losers to thank for that .
