    I was shaking my head at how unimaginative it all was. The deadlights are the creature's true form. You expect them to be a form of devastatingly chaotic light the way the book describes em. Unlike anything ever seen before.

    In the movie it's just 3 nightlights lol smh no imagination whatsoever. Even the mini series wisely avoided explicitly showing them since they didn't have an otherwordly way to execute. I'm guessing the second movie will embrace all the cosmic madness so we'll see what they do therem

    May have to lean toward Mordred, seems like he's suppose to way better then Penny and the 2.0 version the Crimson King or at least his equal

    Yea the TV was dropping subliminal messages to the people of the town encouraging them to ? one another. That's what makes this movie good cause it was on some Fred Krueger 80s type craziness

    My wife took her mom to see this cuz I wasn't all that interested in it at first. 1. It's a horror movie and 2. It's a reboot. 3. The ending of the OG one still has me ? off to this day. The ? literally just cuts off.

    With all that being said, now I'm salty as hell cuz everyone is talking about how good it is. The wife wants me to see it, but our free time is limited, and she really wants to see mother.

    Smh. I may hafta catch this one solo dolo.

    Meh, it was cool I guess.

    I grew up on the original so I'm a little biased.

    The clown made me jump a couple times.

    We all did but this movie became the name brand while the 90s is officially Great Value brand status.

    You have to keep in mind the original was made for early 90s primetime television. The fact that it was remade into a box office feature in 2017 allowed more liberties to the script and special effects.

    I know just saying this is by far the better product. Second half of the original is trash in every aspect but it's nostalgic as ? .
