It's not so much cinematic horror as it brings out the expression at the heart of horror movies - confronting fear

Although it is an R-rated horror film, it is also a film that makes people break through fear and lead the search for love. In the plot, the male protagonist and his partners are in different predicaments. The Loser in reality directly shows the various fears of childhood, fearing to face the growing dilemma that surrounds them. The clown symbolizes the inescapable intrusion of these fears and fears in childhood. The clown is like the demon of everyone's existence. Whatever you are afraid of, afraid of, and afraid to face, there is a "clown" wherever you are. It may be the bullied school bully, the parents who gave them shackles, the sexual assault faced in childhood, or the small inadvertent haze left in the soul. All kinds of all kinds, who can know what terrible consequences will bear on the soul? Friendship, bravery, solidarity and love are the real forces that kill and frighten the clown. The expression of illusory metaphors, the progressive plot, and the content that leads to truth and love are constantly breaking through. It is not so much a movie horror as it brings the expression of the core of horror movies - face the fear, break through the spiritual hold grudges. Maybe everyone's demons in childhood are like clowns that frighten us so much that they remain in the corners of our adult hearts. It doesn't matter, look at It, expose the clowns to the sun, bask in our shadows, and be relieved.
