Few may remember the TV mini series based on Stephen King's novel, the one that came before last year's hit horror release, It, but those that do will be hard pressed to forget Tim Curry's horrifying version of Pennywise that haunts Derry's own sewers.

A demonic entity that takes on the form of your worst nightmares, the creature most often inhabits the form of Pennywise the Dancing Clown - probably because it's such a solid hitter when it comes to scaring the sh*t out of people. With both Curry and most recently, Bill Skarsgard bringing the child-eating demon to life with spine-chilling vigour, it's no surprise King's story has made such waves in the horror community over the years.
