It's not all bad if we all get to fuck the girl to cement a bond in our group. I'm first.

my mom read IT to me as my bedtime story when I was 6.

it wasn't until my teenage years that I was able to walk over sewer grates without having a panic attack.

Read that book when IT came out. SK surely knows how to put you inside the story. ^_^

Ha ... I read it in junior high 25 or so years ago, and I STILL don't walk on sewer grates or man-hole covers :biggrin:

Remember the movie was made for TV...but for a TV Movie I thought it was quite fun.

"It" just didn't do it for me. I was a big fan of his earlier books like "Carrie," "Pet Semetary," and "Salem's Lot," which I found to be just flat-out scary. For me "It" marked the beginning of his more-silly-than-scary phase, the transition to which was confirmed by "The Tommyknockers."

I remember when that was on TV several years ago. It was two 2-hour parts....and I missed it! I keep meaning to watch it.
