Plot Summary
In 2016, twenty-seven years after It’s initial defeat, Pennywise the Dancing Clown returns to Derry, Maine, killing a man named Adrian Mellon after he and his boyfriend are brutally assaulted by homophobic teens. Mike Hanlon, the only member of the Losers Club who remained in Derry, summons the other members, Bill Denbrough, Ben Hanscom, Beverly Marsh, Richie Tozier, Eddie Kaspbrak, and Stanley Uris. All of them return to Derry, except for Stanley, who kills himself. Mike refreshes the Losers’ memories before It itself reveals the news of Stanley’s suicide to them. Richie and Eddie decide to leave, until Beverly reveals that she has had visions of their deaths should they fail to fulfill their oath to kill It.
Meanwhile, It kills a little girl named Victoria at a baseball game and helps Henry Bowers, who was arrested for the murder of his father, escape from a mental institution. At the library, Mike shows Bill, via a drug-induced vision, that the Native American “Ritual of Chüd” can defeat It using artifacts from the Losers’ past; Bill recovers Georgie’s paper sailboat and meets a young boy, Dean, whom he warns to leave Derry. Beverly retrieves Ben’s love poem from her childhood home before being attacked by It in the form of a demonic elderly woman. Richie goes to an abandoned cinema where he collects a game token and encounters Pennywise, who confronts him on his hidden homosexuality.
Ben returns to the town’s high school, choosing to use an old yearbook page signed by Beverly as his artifact, while Eddie recovers an inhaler from a pharmacy and is attacked by the Leper. Returning to the hotel, Richie abandons the group, while Bill leaves for the town carnival and fails to save Dean from Pennywise. Bowers viciously attacks Eddie at the hotel before driving to the library. There, Bowers attacks Mike before Richie returns and impales him, killing him.
