Recently I've found myself scrolling through Netflix for a good movie or two. I found myself watching a gruesome and twisted movie called Unspeakable Acts. It was released in 1990 and is based on a real life event that happened. It was also made after a book. The movie is about sexual abuse in a daycare. Now, im not going to go into detail because this can cause triggers for certain people but in the movie they go into too much detail (for me atleast). This is sadly something that happens in everyday life and, this movie really opens your eyes to how much effect this can have on people, let alone little kids. I thought the movie was really good. The acting was outstanding and I didn’t know such young kids could act so well. Joseph Mazzello stole the show. He played the young boy who had attended the daycare and the whole case was riding on him. He was the first kid to open up about these acts and, shortly after parents realized their kids had also had this happen to them. All around this movie is one you should definitely watch if you do well with that topic.

It Chapter Two is out and on the big screens. I went to go see it a little late but better late than never! I think part one and part two cannot compare. Part one was way more humorous and part two was very dark. I think the directors did very well with putting all characters adult storylines together. They started part two with two gay men at a fair or what looks like a carnival. Though short after these men are having a good time a group of young boys come to ruin the fun. They start tormenting these men and end up bringing them to a bridge where this group of kids start to hurt one of the men. They end up throwing him off the bridge into the water. I know, this is a horrible event but is sadly something that's not impossible to happen especially in the world we live in. For an opening they did really well on grabbing people's attention to how dark and twisted this movie was going to be. They eventually bring in Mike who has not left dairy in these 27 years. He notices right away this must be pennywise’s work and starts to bring in the other characters. Now, the characters are of course all grown up compared to the first movie, but still have the same sense of humor hint hint eddie and richie. When showing their adult lives you see that none of the characters are particularly happy. Bill has taken on the role of an author who wrote about huis traumatic experiences as a kid. Though with a career as happy as that sounds Bill is very upset with his marriage and basically tried to replace Beverly. Richie (as we all could guess it) turned out to be a stand up comedian. Eddie works with a big company and ended up marrying someone that reminds me a little too much like his mother. It doesn't go into too much detail about Stanly although when he receives the call about Mike needing help back in Dairy he ends up taking his own life, unfortunately. Saddest of all there is Beverly who looks like she made it but is secretly in a very abusive, violent and toxic relationship. Once they all returned to dairy it becomes an adventure. I personally loved the second movie though, there were some sad parts i think it did a job well done of living up to the book. As well as the little scene that features Steven King!
