    Meh

    The special effects in this movie were poor quality and the script kind of sucked. It was obviously low budget. The movie had a weird twist ending, the movie wasn't even that great and the ending only made it worse. If you're a fan of horror movies like me, I wouldn't recommend wasting your time on this movie.

    Another bad movie

    When I saw the movie picture on Amazon Prime and the trailer, I was expecting another movie with a lot of kills and movie's cliches. And I got it, but in a negative way, because it has a lot of things that you know it's going to happen before it happens. The stetic of the characters are mid, if we compare to characters like Pennywise or Michael Myers, also the story is non-sense and the dialogues are very very poor. Don't recomend the movie if you are expecting something great, but it is watchable. My conclusion is: the movie is very weak, contains a lot of movie's cliches and have a bad plot and the script don't make sense and the characters stetic is very mid if we compare to another horror characters.

    Low budget bad acting bad story. Don't waste your time.

    Personal opinion: The settings are bad. The effects are bad. The acting sucks. The storyline doesn't create any tension, and the ending is such cliche and predictable. It's a Saw wannabe horror film but the horror part doesn't deliver. Plus I really can't stand the Robert Downey Jr wannabe guy, he tries too hard.

    Complete and utter rubbish, nothing about it is any good

    If you are looking for a horror film to watch, then leave this and go to your back catalogue for 2 reasons: 1) You know you will enjoy whatever you choose 2) You will not waste you time and still be unsatisfied

    The only thing that stands out is the location for the filming. Everything else - the acting, the "special effects", the dreadful story, the acting (so bad it's worth noting twice), the character development is all nothing special. Like it came out of the 1980's.

    Lord the characters, nothing about them was endearing and one in particular, shortly after meeting him I was already waiting for him to die - sooooo annoying. The acting was possibly what you would expect from fresh young faces who will do any job for experience and the script writing really didn't help them. The special effects, were like someone was given a bunch of plasticine and bright coloured paints, unconvincing and cheap.

    As a film in it's own right it's bad, very bad but for a film trying to cash in on how popular the new IT is then it's REALLY bad.

    Leave well alone.

    Didn't have high expectations

    Picked this up in the bargain section of my local supermarket. A scary clown on the cover with a red balloon & the word IT suggested an unoriginal film in the vein of Stephen King's book come movie. However it has no resemblance to that whatsoever. A group of strangers can win 250,000 dollars if they can survive the creepy home of one infamous clown called Kane. Needless to say they start getting bumped off, one by one. There's plenty of clown creepiness going on here and its reasonably well done. There's also a fair bit of gore. However it is let down by a poor script and unconvincing characters, including Kane. It felt like a wannabe Rob Zombie movie, but just lacking his talent or budget. Wouldn't watch it again.
