Twist ending are fun, but sometimes a story is so stylish that it doesn't require one.<br /><br />That story is easily within my top 20 for Warren mags.Brian Barneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15737535617796413548noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-983171239671909762.post-91940898901985806252012-03-24T15:12:17.723-05:002012-03-24T15:12:17.723-05:00Oh, I don't know, "It!" makes perfec...Oh, I don't know, "It!" makes perfect sense to me: a deformed halfwit comes back from the dead for his teddy bear, per the narrative he doesn't care about anything in the world going on around him... although some of those apparently responsible for his death fall victim to his supernatural presense anyway.Mr. Karswellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15889717828895556186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-983171239671909762.post-77171714234356678672012-03-24T14:51:47.015-05:002012-03-24T14:51:47.015-05:00It! is a very unique reading experience.

The story seems to transcend its cliches and throws in some original, haunting bits. That portrait under the shroud is great.

Funny, to see an English church in an Hungarian cemetery, too.<br />The second simply didn't make much sense, although the denouement seems to have foreseen that of the 5th Sense.Keirhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17780519140837852601noreply@blogger.com
