In this solo episode of So, You Like Horror?, Jake returns to Derry one more time to discuss It: Chapter Two, Andy Muschietti’s follow-up to IT (2017) and the conclusion to the Losers’ Club story.

Twenty-seven years after their first confrontation with Pennywise, Bill, Beverly, Ben, Richie, Eddie, Mike, and Stan are adults who have built new lives away from Derry. But when Pennywise returns, Mike calls the group home and forces them to confront memories, fears, and childhood trauma they thought they had left behind.

Jake breaks down the film through its major plot points, including the adult Losers, the Ritual of Chüd, Pennywise’s return, Eddie and Richie’s emotional arc, Derry’s continuing cycle of violence, and the final confrontation beneath the town. The episode also explores themes of memory, unresolved trauma, friendship, guilt, identity, fear, and what it really means to move on from the past.

How well does the adult cast compare to the young Losers? Is Bill Skarsgård’s Pennywise still frightening the second time around? Does the Ritual of Chüd work? And does It: Chapter Two deliver a satisfying ending to the story?

Listen now and take one final trip back to Derry.
