[Video] Footage Breakdown from the ‘IT: Chapter Two’ Presentation at CinemaCon; “Scary as Hell”
“Anyone who dies in Derry never really dies.”
Earlier this week, Warner Bros. presented CinemaCon attendees with the first look at this year’s IT: Chapter Two, showing off a scene from the film along with something akin to a teaser trailer. Sadly, footage shown off at CinemaCon tends to stay at CinemaCon, but our pal Jimmy Champane breaks down what was shown off in a new video you’ll find below.
In the scene that was shown at the event, an adult Beverly Marsh (played by Jessica Chastain) returns to her childhood home to find a seemingly nice old woman living there. In her old bedroom, Bev finds the poem Ben gave her when they were kids, but things take a turn for the terrifying when the old woman starts to get real creepy… as well as fully nude.
IT: CHAPTER 2. What the fuck.
Wicked trailer, scary as hell, should be a helluva time. #CinemaCon

You may end up rethinking karaoke nights with your friends after you watch the upcoming horror-comedy Bad Karaoke, set to World Premiere on Sunday, August 30 as part of Tubi FrightFest in London. You can preview the film with the official trailer below.
Robert J. Steinmiller Jr. and Chris Lightbody directed Bad Karaoke.
In the film, “When wedding band keyboardist Emily discovers an old karaoke machine in the back of a dive bar, she thinks it will lead to a fun-filled night of singing and bonding with her bandmates. Unfortunately, this karaoke machine seems to have a thirst for blood.”
“When the singing begins, so does the bloodshed.”
“When an excellent performance allows someone to be spared by the machine, the crew think they’ve figured out how to finally beat it. Proven almost immediately wrong, it takes more horrifying deaths and a visit from a mysterious stranger to realize they may have a chance at survival after all.”
Lexi Underwood (“Cruel Summer”), Case Walker (Monster High: The Movie), and Kat Cunning (Purple Hearts) star in the upcoming horror-comedy Bad Karaoke.
Chris Lightbody and Spencer Yaras wrote the screenplay.
“We were inspired to make this film after years of painful karaoke performances nearly put us in an early grave,” the directors said in a statement. “We found that many people have had near-death karaoke experiences and we wanted to play with that idea, as well as say something profound about the state of new music. But instead, we made Bad Karaoke.”
