Last Updated on July 30, 2021

Yesterday we were all finally hit with the killer trailer for  IT: CHAPTER TWO, director Andy Muschietti's upcoming sequel to his hit adaptation of STEPHEN KING'S IT. The movie looks to be super-freaky times to this here horror fan, but better yet the film's screenwriter Gary Dauberman says the new movie is "definitely bloodier than the first and it is just as scary, if not scarier." 

Specifically, Dauberman says:

[IT: Chapter Two is] definitely bloodier than the first and it is just as scary, if not scarier. The two movies feel like a complete whole. This feels like a natural progression and extension of the first.
