Stephen King's 'It' remake trailer (Fake)

A request by Arthaslepeureux. In 2011 there will be a motion picture adaptation of the Stephen King book It. I actually didn't think the TV miniseries was that bad an adaptation myself, but I am looking foreword to the kind of scares that modern technology can provide. The story 'It' concerns a group of outcast kids who find themselves stalked and in some cases murdered by an evil supernatural monster who usually takes on the appearance of a clown, calling itself Pennywise. After it is finally banished they take an oath together to never break their fellowship and to destroy It if it should ever rise again. Years later, the kids all grown and with their separate lives receive the dreaded phone call: 'It's back'. The miniseries stared Tim Curry as an amazingly freaky Pennywise. It skirted some of the more controversial issues (the oath of fellowship is done by having sex with the girl of the group in the book, in the TV series it's done by each taking a shot from a puffer) and left out a lot of scenes, but I think it kept the themes of camaraderie, childhood and the nature of fear intact despite the limitations of the time and the small budget. I hope the spirit of the novel and the series isn't extinguished behind splashy effects. The terror of the unknown is the driving force of the story and would work best with nagging suspense and psychological scares, to really drive home how unnerving 'It' truly is. The theme of old friends banding together and destroy a childhood evil is similar to Stephen King's other novel Dreamcatcher. I hope that we finally get a faithful and genuinely scary translation of his work come 2011.
