>>11494555The book is fucked up.
***SPOILER***
There's a part in the book where, after defeating Pennywise in the sewers for the first time as kids, THEY RUN A TRAIN ON THE GIRL. YES, YOU HEARD ME. THEY EACH HAVE TO FUCK HER WHILE DOWN IN THE SEWERS. ONE BY ONE. THE NERD, THE BLACK KID, THE FAT KID--ALL OF THEM.
I realize that this will sound like a troll comment to anyone who hasn't read the book, or anyone whose familiartiy with King only reaches as far as watching The Shawshank Redemption, but this did happen.
It had something to do with re-empowering themselves and solidifying their connections with one another. All I remember was that King described the fat kid as having a massive dick.
Next time you watch this movie, maybe with your mom or your nieces and nephews, there will be that little nudging voice in your head telling you that these kids fucked that dirty little redhead.
You're welcome.
