All the Coolest Shots From the Terrifying ‘IT’ Trailer!
We cannot get enough.
The new trailer for Andy Muschietti’s IT took the internet by storm yesterday afternoon, treating us with tons of terrifying new footage of Pennywise and giving us a better feel for the new Losers’ Club. Honestly, I already love these kids. And I’m totally sold on Bill Skarsgard as Pennywise.
Furthermore, I’m pretty much sold on everything about this new adaptation. When Cary Fukunaga departed the project a while back, I admit to losing a whole lot of interest. But I’m now pretty damn convinced that the film was always meant for Andy Muschietti (Mama) to direct.
Muschietti put together an all-star team both behind the camera and in front of it, hiring Chung-hoon Chung (Oldboy) as the Director of Photography (that explains why the movie LOOKS so damn good) and bringing Steven Kostanski (The Void) and Tom Woodruff Jr. (Aliens, The Monster Squad) aboard the makeup effects crew.
A recipe for the adaptation King’s novel deserves? It’s damn sure looking like it.
We broke down the entire trailer into a gallery of high-res screen grabs for you, which you’ll find below. Keep your eyes peeled for a tribute to the 1990 version of Pennywise!
In the new adaptation…
A group of young kids face their biggest fears when they seek answers to the disappearance of children in their hometown of Derry, Maine. They square off against an evil clown named Pennywise, whose history of murder and violence dates back for centuries.
The kids in peril, the Losers’ Club, include Sophia Lillis, Jaeden Lieberher, Finn Wolfhard, Jack Dylan Grazer, Wyatt Oleff, Chosen Jacobs and Jeremy Ray Taylor. Javier Botet will play The Leper, and Nicholas Hamilton plays Henry Bowers. The cast also includes Owen Teague, who plays bully Patrick Hocksetter. Bill Skarsgard is our new Pennywise.
The film will be in theaters September 8, 2017.
We have an exclusive first look at A Man in the Woods With an Axe, a blood-soaked, genre-twisting homage to 1980s slasher films.
Spanning four decades, A Man in the Woods With an Axe begins in the summer of 1987 before pushing into the modern era, weaving together timelines and perspectives in a way that builds both dread and intrigue.
Drawing inspiration from genre standouts like Tucker and Dale vs. Evil, Hatchet, and The Cabin in the Woods, the film blends visceral horror with moments of dark humor, creating a uniquely balanced experience that honors tradition while carving its own identity.
Writer-director Dillon Brown (Primal Darkness) aims to deliver everything fans crave from a slasher while boldly subverting expectations with a mid-film twist that redefines the story.
“This is an unapologetic love letter to the films that made me fall in love with horror,” Brown tells Bloody Disgusting. “But I didn’t just want to recreate that feeling; I wanted to challenge it. About halfway through, the film takes a turn that completely changes how you view not only this story, but the genre itself.”
Brown describes the vintage-inspired production as “far and away the bloodiest film I’ve ever made,” with practical effects helmed by Cody Ruch (The Mill, Pig Hill), an instructor at Tom Savini’s Special Make-Up Effects Program.
From Horror Dadz Productions, A Man in the Woods With an Axe is currently in production and targeting an early 2027 release.
