Watch the ‘IT’ 1990 Trailer Cut Like the ‘IT’ 2017 Trailer
1990 version. 2017 style.
Ever since the trailer for this year’s IT hit the net back in March, horror fans just haven’t been able to stop talking about it. Personally speaking, I’ve watched it at least twenty times – it took me a handful of views before I even spotted the Leper in one shot – and I know I’m not alone. Many fans have even been re-editing the trailer for various interesting and comedic purposes.
One fan replaced Pennywise with Mike Myers’ Cat in the Hat for a funny trailer spoof, while another put clips from the 1990 mini-series side-by-side with the remake footage to show the similarities and differences between the decades-apart adaptations. Similar to the latter edit, another IT fan just took it upon himself to cut the mini-series into a 2017 style trailer.

Maika Monroe (Longlegs) and director David Robert Mitchell are reuniting for It Follows sequel They Follow, and Deadline brings us the latest casting news this week.
Jackie Earle Haley (Little Children, A Nightmare on Elm Street), Justine Lupe (Succession), Anna Mirodin (Ivan), Jayne Taini (Unbelievable), Michael Gandolfini (Daredevil: Born Again), Tom Pecinka (Stereophonic), Melora Walters (Magnolia), Ben Krieger (Song Sung Blue), Natalie Shinnick (The Brutalist) and Jan Hoag (The Fabelmans) have joined the cast this week.
Naomi Ackie (Blink Twice) has also been confirmed to join They Follow.
Deadline notes in their report this afternoon, “Plot details for the long-anticipated sequel are under wraps, other than it taking place a decade after the events of the original film.”
They Follow is expected to enter production this Summer. Stay tuned for updates.
In the first movie, Maika Monroe’s Jay Height is a young woman followed by an unknown supernatural force after a sexual encounter. In the sequel, the threat is now EVERYWHERE.
“It’s very dark,” Monroe recently teased. “We’re pushing the boundaries on this one for sure.”
“It’s very different from the original,” Monroe told Discussing Film. “The original is a little more heightened and dramatic, and this is really quite grounded and follows the story of these two women that are mentally dealing with a lot. I thought it was really an interesting take on it.”
NEON and Good Fear Content are producing They Follow.
They Follow will feature a new score from Disasterpeace.
