Maybe is matters which you saw/read first? I saw the movie first as a 11-12 year old and found him terrifying. When I read the book as a teen I saw Pennywise as Tim Curry's version.
Maybe you created something more terrifying in your brain and Curry just couldn't do it justice?
I actually own "The Zombie Survival Guide" which is by the same author. It sits on my coffee table during the Halloween season along with "How to Survive a Horror Movie."
"The Zombie Survival Guide" is a lot of fun - and gives "real-life" advice on how to survive when the zombies attack!
I really didn't find Tim Curry all that convincing in that role. It was the first lengthy book I picked up as a kid and the series just didn't do it for me. And i'm a fan of Curry's work.
