I am the eater of worlds, and of children.
IT Chapter2 feels like a ride you've been sat on all day, immense fun but a tad repetitive & a little tiresome after awhile. Now I can't remember the book much to be honest so im going by the films here alone & I personally think its all one giant metaphor for child suicide with the clown just being one big easy to relate to combined metaphor for fear, grief, guilt, betrayal, depression, negativity, loneliness, abuse, anxiety, torment, worry, instability & stress of growing up in a town thats had a lot of tragic events happen in it & in a world where things such as bullying, paedophilia, murder, arson, death, accidents, incest, mental illness, fear mongering, love and having no friends can also be against you and playing on your mind. Watching it in this way is where the real terror lies & everything had a logical explanation to it too (especially watching both films back to back) making these films that much more powerful, relatable, meaningful & heartwarming. Watching these kids/adults unite together to battle everything life throws at them to conquer & overcome the darkness while still trying to have fun and enjoy youth at the same time is so empowering and uplifting its just a shame this new film retreads to much old ground feeling a tad to repetitious of what we've seen before already. That being said the character drama is great & theres clear love here for the source material/films from the past that have since become cult classic. A genuine nostalgia vibe is present here too with the film feeling very lost boys meets the goonies & theres even elements of evil dead & john carpenters the thing too. Acting is fantastic with a near flawless adult cast & special effects for the most part are creative, creepy, disgusting & good looking with a few seemingly rushed bits here & there. Its a good film dont get me wrong it just feels like it needs a trim as the lulls at times can make your mind float off elsewhere (especially during some side plots). Overall IT 2 has great depth, fun horror elements & well developed characters its just a shame the comedy & repetitive structure spoil it.

The story picks up where The Grim Company left off. Where the first book really focused on the main group's journey with some side chapters in the north, this now splits into each of those main characters' solo journeys. We move between Brodar Kayne (and The Wolf), Sasha, Eremul the half-mage, Cole, Yllandris and the thoroughly detestable (but brilliant) Sir Meredith. All of their stories tell of different events, and few of the them cross over, meaning this book really is rather epic.
A number of threads from the first book are either progressed, explained further or closed off, and a number of new mysteries, invading forces and battles are introduced.
For the second book of a trilogy you would expect little extra additions, progressing those introduced in the first book and seguing into the final instalment. Not so here, as a number of new, critical elements are introduced, some very late in the book, which are leading to a fairly epic third book to close off.
Absolutely awesome.
