Some of the after effects of watching a horror show include cold

sweats, nervous laughter, stiff muscles, muffled screams, and,

if all goes well, a night when it is particularly difficult to fall

asleep. And who knows why we still love to experience fear in a

movie theater. While we decode this mystery, let's find some of

the most horror movies and TV shows which you probably would not like to see more than once.


IT



In the small town of Derry, a gang of seven kids known as "The

Losers Club" resides who have to deal with their daily problems

with the school bullies. However, their life takes an unexpected

turn when a great threat looms over them in the summer after

a spate of strange deaths causes panic and terror in the town.The group of friends goes in search of the killer. Subsequently,

they discover that the crimes were committed by an evil entity:

a sadistic monster named Pennywise who wears a horrible

clown costume. Now the friends have to overcome their own

personal fears to battle the murderous, bloodthirsty clown,

Pennywise. And though It does contain plenty of heartwarming and funny scenes, it is also sprinkled with just enough genuine horror to

still terrify you. This creates an exceedingly rare movie that

can thoroughly frighten you while also making you laugh at the

same time. A must-see for any fan of horror or comedy and clown for sure!

It's a big '80s classic film offering you plenty of feverish

atmospheres, tight suspense, and good scares! On Elm Street,
