It (2017)

It Starring: Bill Skarsgard,  Jaeden Lieberher, Sophia Lillis, Finn Wolfhard Director: Andy Muschietti, IMDb rate:7,6 My rate: 8 Probably the most anticipated horror movie of 2017: It . I never did a review about the original movie so here are quickly my thoughts about it: I thought Tim Curry as Pennywise was absolutely amazing. He did an amazing job and he was quite scary as well. I liked how Pennywises looked very child-friendly which made it believable that little Georgie would follow him. However I did think the movie was way too long and the special effects were rather meh. The big spider at the ending? Please... I do realize the original It is from 1990 but even back then could have done much better. The book was, similar to the movie, quite long but in the book I didn't feel like it was that long at all. I thought there was a lot of tension in the book of It which I sadly missed in the movie. Now! Let's talk about the remake of It . When I first saw the trailer of this

This review will be about the prequel of Annabelle (which is the prequel of The Conjuring ), this being titled Annabelle: Creation . I did not like the first movie that much. It had a lot to offer but the execution of it was rather meh. The sequel actually was surprisingly good compared to it. Here's why.... I felt like Annabelle: Creation had a much more thought out plot compared to the first part. This actually is a prequel to the first movie where you find out about the origins of the evil doll. I however have to admit that the beginning is a bit questionable. Of course the couple where the kids are staying have a secret room no one may ente
