I was part of the crowd that thought “It” was incredibly well-made and built up a lot of tension, most of which didn’t rely on usual cheap jump scares. Muschietti has a decent amount of subtlety, he knows you need atmosphere-building to truly make a horror movie click. The Argentine-born director purposely sidesteps cliches in his movies by, quite meticulously, focusing on ingenious lighting, framing and timing. ‘It: Chapter Two’ was greenlit only a few weeks after the film’s September 2017 release. The main characters are all back, but all grown up some thirty years later, with Pennywise the clown still looming around the creaky darkness. “It: Chapter 2” opens on September 6, 2019.  Contribute Hire me
