·         So with the IT movies theirs the first one from the 1990s than the remakes in 2017 and in 2019. The original got this movie idea from Stephens Kings book IT. I personally don’t find clowns scarier at all I don’t feel anything for  them but I guess to others they can be scary even though the concept of clowns is supposed to be happy and funny not scarier.

·         The genre for this movie is horror/ thriller so basically scary movies but in my research this genre can be totally different from when the movies are brought out. For example for IT (the 1990s) it was good but at the time clown movies weren’t that much of a hit, in the 1990s it was all about slasher movies those were the big hit, not clown movies. As for the IT chapter 1&2 (2017/2019), they were a big hit when they came out especially chapter 2, at the time when chapter 1 was coming out we just got over the clown panic that was going on so of course this movie scared people but also everyone wanted to see it plus it was remade from the first so it was already popular, to begin with.

·         The social history is both different since one came out when clowns weren’t a big deal to when the newest one came out when clowns were a big deal and people were really scared of them. Of course, after the 1990s IT came out more movies then became about clowns and for TV shows as well. The 1990s clown defiantly gives off the birthday clown that goes to parties for kids while for our 2017/2019 the version we get more of the scarier, creepy clown because it’s the 21^st the century we want scarier versions.

·         I bring these differences out because they came out in 2 different decades where one had better technology of course and when it was a right time to have a scary clown movie out. You can also see the difference for how they tell it as well, they tell the same story but in different timelines.
