One of my all time favourite films.

This novella and his novel "It" are based on the same event in King's childhood when he and his friends found a body.

I cannot hear this movie's title without thinking of the brilliant actor, River Phoenix's death of a drug overdose at the age of 23.

Walking on the railway bridge with the train coming at full speed is one of the most frightening and suspenseful part of the film. A good script made into a great film. Bravo to Stephen King!

King is a fantastic Author. He is so diverse with what he writes. It’s like a box of chocolates you just never know what you’re going to get

One of the best King adaptations. Reiner did a brilliant job.

Andrew
Brilliant movie, so good I brought the dvd...

Rob Reiner borrowed “two fer flinchin” from an All in the Family episode. It was a thing Archie’s old army buddy did.

Tom
Cookie Bean, most of it was filmed in and around Brownsville, OR, a small town not too far from where I live!

Mars V
The movie is much better than the novella!
