Why 'It' character names?
‘It’ is one of the scariest movies of all time based on Stephen King's story, where the villain is a clown who is an abusive monster. Apart from the movies, the release of the miniseries on television received an equally popular response.
The director Andrés Muschietti managed to create history with this popular release in September 2017.
The story is based in the small town of Derry where Pennywise is considered responsible for deaths caused after every 27 years. He can take any form and appears to create physical terror in the members of the local community.
After Georgie died in 1988, his brother Bill and the members of the Losers Club get together to hunt down the monster who causes different types of fears to his victims and is responsible for the death of Bill's younger brother Georgie.
Bill's friends and Bill himself can defeat the monster and life returns to normal for the time being. But the death of evil Pennywise was just a pause in the story as evil Pennywise returns to haunt the town and the children.
Every member of the Losers Club comes back to Derry to fight their history and finally banish IT forever.
