If his previous work was designed for a younger audience, the thriller "It" is already a more mature project. The period of time in which the characters live was specially slightly separated from the specific period. Mitchell just made movies, using the things he needed for it, without focusing on this or that decade. Therefore, you could see cars from the 60s and 70s, as well as more modern technologies. The budget of the film is small, the creators invested 2 million dollars. Filming took place in Detroit, Michigan, where the crew spent several months in 2013. The idea came to the director a long time ago. As a child, he often had one nightmare in which he was haunted by some entity or person. And he thought, why not develop it into an idea for a film, and wrote a script. At the same time, it is worth noting that at the preliminary screening, many people noted the originality of the film. The tape even won a grand prize at one of the festivals of fantasy and mysticism. Rich Vrilenl, the composer of the horror film, got a small role. He can be seen in one of the scenes shot at the school where he is the principal.
