10 Exact Moments Horror Movie Villains Knew They’d Lost

How on earth do you and your ragtag gang of childhood buddies take down an intergalactic beast of cosmic terror that thrives on your fear and wants to eat you? Well, It Chapter Two has the answer.

27 years after their initial run-in with Pennywise the Dancing Clown, the Losers Club return to their hometown of Derry when this otherworldly menace rears its head once more and starts targeting the locals. That's not to say that all of the Losers are particularly thrilled at the prospect of this battle, with poor Stanley Uris taking his own life rather than tackle Pennywise again.

When the Losers Club do get to have that one final fight with Pennywise, things don't get all that well, with an ancient ritual going horrendously and Eddie Kaspbrak being fatally wounded by the creature. However, with his final words, Eddie urges his friends not to be afraid of Pennywise - which kickstarts one of the most brutal takedowns in horror history.

Rallying together, the remaining Losers gang up on the interdimensional nasty and, well, bully it. Somehow, this works, causing Pennywise to shrink up like a raisin as it dawns on him and the audience that this may finally be the end of this villainous entity.

You do almost start to feel bad for Pennywise as he's essentially bullied out of existence. That is, until you remember how many nightmares the Dancing Clown has given the Derry townsfolk and audiences across the globe.
