I'm floating right now. Not in the sewers, but on cloud nine kazillion after experiencing all of the awesomeness that is the new IT movie. They didn't clown around with this new one. Okay, puns out of the way(for now), it was a fantastic film. Not only was justice served to the original adaptation, but I truly feel it surpassed it and rose above all of the excitement and expectations surrounding it. The kids couldn't have been casted any better I don't think, direction that resulted in a look and feel that was amazing, huge thumbs up on costuming, make-up, and effects, and very well written with that perfect balance of horror and humor; I laughed a lot. The new Pennywise is to die for. What Tim Curry's version did for my generation and taking fear of clowns to a whole new level, Bill Skarsgard's will do the same for the current generation. To this day I feel uneasy when I see sewer drains and do my damnedest to avoid them. In summary, IT was well made(pun intended) and is a must see.

Another story from DC's Rebirth universe, set several decades from now in Neo-Gotham - or Jokerz Town as it's been dubbed. There's a new Batman on the streets and a whole gang of Jokerz. Terry, having been trained by the late Bruce Wayne, is wearing the cape and cowl now. The new clown-crazed criminals need to be dealt with - especially when they kidnap Terry's old girlfriend, Dana.

Terminal, an old school friend of Dana and now the leader of the Jokerz, has a mad plan in action. It involves the original Joker, who everyone believed to be dead.

There are several big surprises in this novel. It's a really interesting volume, definitely enticing you to read on. The readers aren't the only one being surprised, though - every character is dealt their fair share of shock in this story!

I like what I've seen of Terry so far, and his relationship with his little brother. I look forward to learning more about them. And I'm super interested to see what happens after the final plot twist was revealed. This seems like a really interesting comic, and I'm giving this issue 4 stars.

Does what it promises...but little more
So I finally got around to watching Terrifier, and yeah, it was pretty good.

Art the Clown is a captivating antagonist, with the playful tendencies of pennywise combined with the raw savagery of Jason, with just a pinch of the sadistic in there too.

The kills are largely effective, and brutal, the other characters are mostly fine and bearable, and certainly this is a film worthy of a sequel.

However, there is a niggling criticism that Terrifier is just a series of largely unrelated scenes, where they try to make Art as Brutal/Weird/Unsettling as possible, without really concerning themselves with any sort of a deeper plot, lore or moral.

The rules and motivations surrounding Art are unclear, at times hinting at mother issues, him just being an ordinary lunatic, but also having some supernatural elements too.

Its enjoyable enough without the lore and background, but for Art to transcend from a one off (if you ignore the short film starring him) we need to understand more.

Still, if you like your 80's gore horror, I am sure you will find something to like here.
