Stephen King's IT was broadcast on network TV during primetime. I remember being excited to gather around the TV to watch a movie and oooooh boy was not prepared. I don't think my parents let me finish.
I remember hearing about IT from other kids, and them describing all these horrific things that happen. When I watched it as an adult I couldn't believe how tame it was. Everything had been exaggerated, and some of it was probably being confused with things from other movies.
I finished it! Couldn't take a shower without fear or let my feet stick out from the blankets for years. Definitely the one that scarred me most, likely because I was in 1st grade.
Lol I think we're around the same age. Definitely too young for evil clown Tim Curry.
I was watching IT at my grandma's and she just saw the clown at the beginning and thought it must be kids movie. But eventually my mum came home and stopped it (also my grandma got yelled at).
