Movie Reviews of Creepshow (Snap Case Packaging)
Movie Review: GREAT MOVIE WITH A PLAYFULL SPIRIT!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
I have been watching horror movies for a long time, and I remember when this movie was released(my mother took me to the movies to see it; I still don't know whether that was a good or bad thing?!?!). Years had gone by and one day I saw this movie at the video store and just had to have it. This movie is graphic but very playfull(comicbook roots). There are five stories:
First, A murdered father showing up for Father's Day.
Second, A man (Steven King) discovers a meteor(intresting fact, This story is based on H.P.Lovecraft's "The Colour Out Of Space")
Third, A man seeking revenge on his wife and lover.
Fourth, A janitor and a college proffesor open a crate that the janitor found to a grizzly consequence.
Last, and greatest, A hypocondriac in a germ free apartment gets an unwelcome visit by several thousand little unwanted guests.
If you like horror comedy then check out this classic. well worth the time.
Movie Review: Creepshow........
Summary: 5 Stars
Creepshow is 1982 Anthology Horror movie directed by George Romero and written by Stephen King. It stars Stephen King, Hal Holbrook, Adrienne Barbeau, Leslie Nielsen, Ted Danson, E.G.Marshall, and Ed Harris. It contains five stories: "Father's Day", "The Lonesome Death of Jordy Verrill", "Something to Tide You Over", "The Crate" and "They're Creeping Up on You!". Two of these stories, "The Crate" and "The Lonesome Death of Jordy Verrill" (originally titled "Weeds") are previously published King short stories. It's considered a sleeper hit at the box-office amongst horror fans, considering it made $21 Million Dollars domestically. The film itself serves as a homage to EC Comics' Tale from the Crypt, The Vault of Horror & The Haunt of Fear.
These days, this movie can be found in bargain bins everywhere where movies are sold and is a good buy, if you ask me. It's another one of my favorites. One I recommend to all.
Movie Review: "The most fun you'll ever have being scared!"
Summary: 5 Stars
I doubt a truer ad line was ever concocted. Back when it was made, Creepshow was a serious happening. The world's bestselling horror writer and the respected and fiercely independent director of two icons of horror cinema [Night of the Living Dead and Dawn of the Dead] had joined forces to make a horror movie. Needless to say, more than a few stars were willing to take a trip out to The Burg for the honor of getting rubbed out by zombies, crate monsters, weeds, or cockroaches. King's script (his best in my opinion) is simplistic as a comic should be and Romero's direction is highly stylized (great care was taken to give the sets a simplistic look, as if they could be drawn instead of photographed), thus making Creepshow one of that last truly great anthology horror movies. No fan of King, Romero, or horror movies should be without a copy. Highly recommended.Movie Review: "Creepiest" Show Of All
Summary: 5 Stars
This is one of the most original horror films of all time. Taking inspiration from the EC comics of the 50's ("Tales From the Crypt", "Vault of Horror") Stephen King and George Romero present five gruesome, yet humorous tales slickly tied together by some animated segments.There is some really awesome special effects by wizard Tom Savini and some surprising good actors show up-(Ted Danson, E.G. Marshall, Hal Holbrook, Ed Harris.) The directing is clever, especially when Romero uses split screen techniques to simulate the look of a comic book.
The plots may seem shallow, but if your're a fan of those old horror comics you'll "get it." The worst thing you can say about it: Tom Atkins and Stephen King cheese it up for the worst acting awards.
Added plus: Michael Kamen's amazingly chilling score.
