Continuity mistake: When they are in the library after they found out Stan committed suicide, it shows Beverly stand up but when it cuts back to her she is sitting down and stands up.
In Derry, Maine, there is a monster that takes the shape of whatever you're afraid of, and kills/eats kids. It soon targets seven friends - Bill, Ben, Eddie, Beverly, Mike, Richie, and Stan - after killing Bill's little brother, Georgie. Eventually the kids kill IT, but thirty years later (twenty-seven in the book by Stephen King), IT comes back to Derry. Mike, the only one of the seven who stayed in Derry, calls the six others to come back and kill IT (they took an oath to after they first killed IT), and all come but Stan (who kills himself) to finish off IT once and for all.
