The movie "IT" contains a variety of common editing. In order to keep the audience on the edge of their seats and wanting to know what comes next, the usage of jump cuts and fade outs were incorporated in the film. Other common editing was used such as cross-cutting, dissolve and eye-line match to create intense yet smooth transitions and to make the movie more understanding for the audience so that confusion doesn't occur.
Throughout the film, common elements of the horror genre were displayed.

The movie "IT" was a very interesting and suspenseful movie although very scary. There were many common elements of the horror genre that I liked that were incorporated in the film. I loved the sounds of many scenes in the movie as they made the movie very suspenseful and interesting. This informed me that something scary was going to happen but the jump scares were still unexpected. I also liked the different settings that were displayed in the film. The dark and eerie locations make the film much scarier as I felt like I was in the same location that was being displayed while I was watching the movie.
Last but not least, the one and only common element of the horror genre that was used in the movie "IT" that I didn't like was the excessive amount of jump scares throughout the film. There were so many jump scares within the movie that towards the end of the movie, I felt like I got used to the fright from jump scares as I didn't get scared when they happened from the over using of them throughout the entire movie.
