Thanks largely to Tim Curry's performance in the 1990 mini-series,
Pennywise, the antagonist of Stephen King's It, has become one of the most iconic villains of the horror genre.
Directed by John Campopiano and Gary Smart,
Pennywise: The Story of It explores the making of that
mini-series along with the wider phenomenon of coulrophobia (that's fear
of clowns to you and I), and features interviews with Curry, director
Tommy Lee Wallace, actors Seth Green and Richard Thomas and more.
Pennywise: The Story of It is on UK VOD from October 3rd,
followed by a DVD/bluray release on October 24th.
Check out the trailer and poster below.
The official synopsis reads:
Exploring the 1990 cult hit mini-series, based on Stephen King's iconic novel IT, this documentary tells a story heard by few and showcases a wealth of behind-the-scenes footage and photos seen by even fewer.
