The novel That by Stephen King is a classic of horror literature that you absolutely must have read for many reasons. A work which contains a controversial scene that neither television, with the 1990 miniseries, nor cinema, with the 2017 film, have dared to bring to the screen.
This passage from the novel, absent from the adaptations, takes place after the members of the Failures Club have defeated It. While lost in the sewers, they realize they must come together and reconnect at all costs. Beverly’s character then makes love to all the boys so that the group can come together and survive.
In 2013, Stephen King spoke on this stage. “I didn’t really think about the sexual aspect of the scene”declared the American. “The book is about childhood and adulthood. (…) The sexual act connected childhood to adulthood. (…) Times have changed since I wrote this stage, these subjects have become more sensitive.”
A few years later, the master of horror mentioned this passage again on the microphone of the Vulture site. “I find it fascinating that there have been so many comments about this sex scene and so few about the numerous child murders.”noted the 76-year-old writer. “That must mean something, but I’m not sure what.”
