IT Chapter One: Emotional Terrorism
from Brides of Frankenstein Hosted by Ally Marcie and Lindsay Sledzik
Welcome to the Losers Club! This week, the Brides head to Derry, Maine, to talk all about 2017's It Chapter One. Topics covered in this episode include: why this Stephen King adaptation works as opposed to Children of the Corn, the pitch perfect casting for the Losers, the tendency of director Andy Muschietti to go HUGE with set pieces and imagery, Henry Bowers' truly scary mullet, and the infuriating fact that a lot of the best lines of the film were improvised by 12 year olds (seriously, these kids have NO RIGHT to be this good). We also critique the various changes from book to screen, and confess which one of us is, in real life, truly freaked out by clowns. This episode is long, because man, there's a lot to cover in this film - and it's just part one! Note: This podcast episode contains reference to molestation by a parent. Take care of yourselves, friends! It: Chapter One. 2017. Directed by Andy Muschietti. Starring Bill Skarsgard, Jaeden Martell, Finn Wolfhard, Sophia Lillis, Wyatt Oleff, Jeremy Raymond Taylor, Jack Dylan Grazer, and Chosen Jacobs.
