TV review: The streaming-series It prequel is well worth a watch

"This isn’t a remake of the movies — the book is 1,000 pages long, so there is plenty of new material here, in what is effectively a prequel to the two movies."

Set in the world of Stephen King’s “IT” universe, IT: WELCOME TO DERRY is based on King’s “IT” novel and expands the vision established by filmmaker Andy Muschietti in the feature films “IT” and “IT Chapter Two."

Like Stranger Things? Then don’t miss It: Welcome to Derry (Sky Atlantic and NOW).

This eight-part series is the latest take on the Stephen King novel It, following two movies that each had their own style: one plain creepy, the second, full-blown action horror.
