10 Huge Horror Movies That Were Instantly Forgotten

10. It Chapter Two (2022)

There was a time when Pennywise the Dancing Clown dominated cinema, as the 2017 release of It captivated audiences. It's still remembered today for its great horror moments, the terrifying performance from Bill Skarsgård as the killer clown, and the incredible chemistry from the main cast.  

Why is it, then, that the sequel is about as well remembered as a night of drinking tequila?  

It Chapter Two was set to be the epic conclusion to this massive success story. However, while it got a substantial release and made a massive profit (although still hundreds of millions less than its predecessor), it failed to capture even a fraction of the first movie's impact.  

There are many reasons why the film drew less admiration, with a lot of it coming down to the fact that the "Pennywise appears and scares one of the protagonists" structure was painfully repetitive. 

On top of that, it attempted to combine the kid and adult versions of the casts, with flashbacks constantly taking you out of the action. Had it simply told the story from the perspective of the adult characters, it might have been talked about longer.
