It: 19 WTF Moments

8. Rock Fight!

Alongside the bizarre New Kids on the Block scene, there's another extremely out-of-place sequence as the Losers show up to defend Mike, Beverly throws a rock at Henry and Richie initiates a rock fight.

The scene is scored to Anthrax's classic tune "Antisocial" and features some very odd slow-mo, complete with voices pitched-down. It's only a quick scene, but the style in which it's directed totally sticks out compared to the rest of the film and honestly feels like it belongs somewhere else.

Thankfully the movie as a whole is weird and off-kilter enough that it can survive it, though.
