Funko Unveils Four Different Pennywise POP! Toys from ‘IT’
They cannot take our money fast enough.
The most anticipated horror movie of the year is unquestionably Mama director Andy Muschietti’s new take on Stephen King’s IT, which will bring us back to Derry on September 8. We were hoping the new movie would bring Pennywise back into the Funko POP! line (the Tim Curry version has his own vinyl toy), and indeed it’s going to!
Set for release in September, just in time for the movie, is a wave of (at least) four different new IT POP! vinyl toys that depict actor Bill Skarsgard’s new version of Pennywise. First up is the standard toy of Pennywise holding Georgie’s boat, which will have a rare 1-in-6 “sepia” chase variant.
In addition, there will be a couple of store exclusives. “Pennywise with wig” is headed to Walmart stores, while “Pennywise with balloon” will be a Hot Topic exclusive.

While you wait for Alien: Romulus, the folks over at Devilworks have cooked up their own slice of “mockbuster” fun with Alien Hunt, and we’re debuting the trailer here on BD this morning.
This brand-new sci-fi horror from director Aaron Mirtes (The Bigfoot Trap, Painted in Blood) is set for its US premiere on May 14, and you can find it on digital thanks to Devilworks.
You can exclusively watch the official trailer for Alien Hunt below, which looks to combine elements of Alien and Predator. This particular “mockbuster” has very little interest in hiding its inspirations, with the alien designs plucked straight out of H.R. Giger’s beautiful brain. Hey, if you’re going to pull from other movies, might as well take from the all-time greats!
In Alien Hunt, “On a hunting trip in the wilderness, a group of siblings discovers an abandoned military outpost on their land, but is it what it seems?
“Their trip takes a sinister turn when they find themselves facing off against a relentless army of extra-terrestrial beings. Suddenly, the hunters become the hunted.
“The formidable squad of alien soldiers will stop at nothing to wipe out the enemy and in an all-out, brutal battle for survival, it’s kill or be killed in Alien Hunt.”
Barron Boedecker (Escape Pod, The Bigfoot Trap), Brent Bentley (The Perfect In-Laws, Haunt Season), Deiondre Teagle (The Visitor, Painted in Blood, Death Ranch), Chelsey Fuller (The Bigfoot Trap, The Silent Natural), Jesse Santoyo (A Nashville Country Christmas, Potter’s Ground), and Adam Pietripaoli (The Bigfoot Trap, The OctoGames) star.
