On 12th August, ‘You’ll float too!’

This August, HBO and HBO HD welcomes you to unravel the terror that Derry, Maine of Circa 1989 harbours! Betraying its idyllic townscape, a sinister secret is ready to prey on the deepest fears of little children and haunt them in unspeakable ways. Brace yourself for the re-emergence of ‘IT’, an eternal entity that masquerades as notorious killer clown called Pennywise!

The latest film adaptation of Stephen King’s eponymous novel, not only set cash registers ringing but also struck a chord with critics and movie-goers alike. Brought to fans by Domino’s, the much-awaited premiere on HBO and HBO HD promises bone-chilling horror in the form of IT, a nefarious eternal entity that takes the form of a killer clown popularly known as Pennywise. Disturbingly, IT can also shapeshift, and go absolutely unseen by adults.

The movie deftly combines Pennywise’s chilling capers, with a coming-of-age story that is brought alive by a brilliant star-cast. Bill Skarsgard as the clown embodies the classic nightmarish characteristics with much élan. Finn Wolfhard, Sophia Lillis, Jaeden Lieberher, Jack Dylan Grazer, Wyatt Oleff, Jeremy Ray Taylor and Chosen Jacobs, are the innocent but strong-willed ‘Losers’, whose performances make you root for them in their war against IT. With a great cast, gripping story and critically lauded screenplay, director Andy Muschietti moves away from the dog-eared cliché book, and creates a classy horror masterpiece.

You can run, you can hide but you cannot escape because IT will find you. Watch the mega premiere of spine-chilling IT only on HBO and HBO HD, and experience the magic on Sunday, 12th August, 1pm and 9pm. Use the #YouCantEscapeIT on social media to post your experience.
