With the highly-anticipated movie adaptation of IT fast approaching, original Pennywise Tim Curry has been speaking about his 1990 miniseries version of the story, and admits he found the ending to the show somewhat lacking.
Curry’s performance has become iconic since the IT two-parter first aired, featuring him as Pennywise: a shapeshifting monster who regularly takes on the form of a sinister clown. The series terrified a whole generation of children, even though many of those same fans now admit that the ending – where Pennywise’s true form is revealed to be a rubbery looking spider – is something of a letdown.
