4.《小丑回魂》（It）

上映时间：9月8日（美国）

For many Stephen King fans, the definitive portrayal of It's Pennywise, an evil clown that's really a malevolent spirit that feeds off fear, was by Tim Curry in a 1990 TV miniseries. So Bill Skarsgård has big clown shoes – and pantaloons – to fill. In this film version of the 1986 novel, It is much more clearly a metaphor for how powerful forces can divide and destroy a society, in this case the small town of Derry, Maine, by playing off people's greed, ambitions, and fears – the evil spirit that manifests as Pennywise only appears to people in the form of something that will scare them the most. So for a group of children in Derry, the thing that scares them the most is an evil clown. And, like the children in Stranger Things, these kids have to fight back against the evil facing them.
对于史蒂芬·金的众多粉丝来说，汤姆·克里在1990年的电视短剧《小丑回魂》中定义了小说《死光》中Pennywise的形象，这个邪恶小丑是真正令人战栗的恶魔。因此，出演小丑对于比尔·斯卡斯加德是巨大的挑战。根据这部1986年的小说改编的电影版《小丑回魂》中，“死光”被更明显比喻成一种可以分裂、毁灭社会的强大力量，缅因州德里小镇的故事就是一个例子。通过释放人们的贪婪、野心和恐惧，这个化身为Pennywise的恶魔只会以人们最恐惧的事物形态出现。而对于德里镇的一群孩子们来说，他们最害怕的就是邪恶小丑。和《怪奇物语》中的孩子们一样，这群孩子也要向他们面临的恶魔发起反击。
