    That’s my favorite part of the book version of “IT.” The scene just captures childhood so well.

      It wasn’t the weird kiddy gangbang scene then?

      King’s cocaine pile must have looked like the one from Scarface at the point he wrote that.

        One of the few times I can think of where a 100% accurate film adaptation of a classic novel would be a felony.

        I’m honestly surprised that Stephen King’s obsession with including child abuse and rape in his books hasn’t caused more waves in the age of twitter. Certainly a bit weird how Stephen King is often recommended to young adults.

          I mean, I’m on board with young adults being familiar with abuse in print so if it happens in real life they have an idea of what’s going on.
