Andy Muschietti Showed Off First ‘IT: Chapter 2’ Footage at #SDCC and Promised Scarier Film
The footage is *not* online and probably won’t be, but the very first look at IT: Chapter Two was shown off at San Diego Comic Con tonight, as part of WB’s “ScareDiego” event.
Via Twitter, we’ve got some recaps of the footage shown, revealing that attendees got their first look at Bill Hader as Richie and James Ransone as Eddie.
Additionally, director Andy Muschietti promised a scarier, more intense sequel…

A bunch of peeks at Bill Skarsgard as Pennywise looking exactly as he did before: creepy as hell! Andy Muschietti says the sequel will be “scarier and more intense” and that we should wear adult diapers to the theater. #ScareDiego @joblocom

SCREAMBOX Investigates UFOs and Extraterrestrials: Several Documentaries Streaming Right Now!
As someone who is obsessed with UFOS (or more recently known as UAPs) and the concept of extraterrestrials, I love a good documentary. Sightings have been on the rise since the 1940s, with the atomic bomb seemingly acting as a catalyst for new visitors. But what are these UFOs/UAPs? Is there an explanation or are they simply beyond our explanation? Why are they here? Who are they? How much do our governments know? The questions are endless and so are the documentaries that attempt to uncover the secrets behind decades of sightings and alleged confrontations.
Whether you’re a seasoned viewer or new to the rabbit hole, there’s always a handful of interesting documentaries to get your neurons firing and leave you with sleepless nights. SCREAMBOX is investigating with the addition of several docs, all streaming now on the Bloody Disgusting-powered service. Here’s the breakdown:
