Creepshow

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!

    25 YEAR ANNIVERSARY EDITION...

    Wow! Is it really 25 years since this film first hit our screens? This film comprises 5 short stories, linked by a comic book. Best segments are 'Something to Tide You Over' with the excellent Leslie Nielsen playing it straight and 'They're Creeping up on You', played by a paranoid EG Marshall and cast of thousands! Worst segment, hence the four stars, is 'The Lonesome Death of Jordy Verrill' played by he who cannot act Stephen King (I recommend skipping over this segment). 'The Crate' and 'Father's Day', with Adrienne Barbeau (the DJ in The Fog), and Ed Harris (The Abyss) respectively, round off a near excellent film.

    Wacky

    Loads of creativity as usual from Stephen King. Though he's not at his best when he does macabre all tounge and cheeck as he does here. Worth a watch if you're in the mood for an eighties horror vid.

    My personal favourate story is the one starring Ted Danson and Leslie Nielson towards the end. Very original...
