Description:
Two macabre masters - writer Stephen King and director George A. Romero - conjure up five shocking yarns, each a virtuoso exercise in the ghouls-and-gags style of classic '50s horror comics. A murdered man emerges from the grave for Father's Day cake. A meteor's ooze makes everything ... grow. A professor selects his wife as a snack for a crated creature. A scheming husband plants two lovers up to their necks in terror. A malevolent millionaire with an insect phobia becomes the prey of a cockroach army. Add the spirited performances of a fine cast (Hal Holbrook, Adrienne Barbeau, Leslie Nielsen, Ted Danson, E.G. Marshall and King himself) and the ghoulish makeup wizardry of Tom Savini. Let the Creepshow begin.

Inspired by the controversial E.C. Comics of the 1950s--which also provided the title and inspiration for the popular Tales from the Crypt TV series--director George Romero and screenwriter Stephen King serve up five delightfully frightful stories. Utilizing comic-book panels, animated segues, and exaggerated lighting and camera angles, Romero and cinematographer Michael Gornick come very close to replicating a horror comic in film format. The results mix fine acting with the morbid sense of humor and irony that made the E.C. books so popular in their heyday. Actors such as Leslie Nielsen, Hal Holbrook, Ted Danson, Adrienne Barbeau, Ed Harris, E.G. Marshall, and even King appear in the stories, which include tales of a sinister father's day celebration, a mysterious meteor, seaweed-draped zombies, a monster in a crate, and a cockroach-phobic millionaire. Fiendishly fun fare from one of horror's most famous directors. --Bryan Reesman

"Creepshow" unites George Romero, Stephen King and the make up skills of Tom Savini to deliver five creepy yet intriguing tales. It is delivered in true comic book fashion with embellished lighting, unique camera angles and animated transitions from one tale to the next. After all, it was based on the E.C. horror comics.
It all begins with "Father's Day" in which a murdered father comes back from the grave to collect his long awaited Father's Day cake. It has its scares and the humor ... Read More

This is a fun movie. No real blood or gore, but plenty of thrills and chills.
It proves you don't need a bunch of split blood and guts to make a good horror flick.

Creepshow is a name that I feel gets often overlooked in the horror community. Directed by George Romero (Night of the Living Dead, Dawn of the Dead), the film is comprised of 5 short films based on tales by Stephen King. It's a fantastic homage of sorts to the E.C horror comics of the 50's, and is a great mixture of horror with a touch of comedy thrown in for good measure. The result is a well put together, slightly but not too campy two hours of entertainment.
