Video Title: Creepshow Tagline: The most fun you'll ever have...being scared! Distributor: Warner Home Video Release Year: 1982 Rated: R imdb: Creepshow Starring: Hal Holbrook Starring: Adrienne Barbeau Director: George A. Romero Format: VHS Back of Box: Writer Stephen King and director George Romero. Like Dr. Frankenstein and his monster or Dracula and his blood-sucking harem, this is a team to be reckoned with. King's works - Carrie, Cujo, The Shining, Salem's Lot, Misery and many others - make his a legend of the silver scream. And the same hold true for Romero, whose Night of the Living Dead remains a classic of zombies-on-parade cinema. The two macabre masters combine their terrifying talents in Creepshow - and prove why theirs is the teaming horror fans have been deliciously dreading! Five shockingly clever stories are here, each a virtuoso exercise in fright told in the ghouls-and-gags style of classic '50s comics like the legendary Tales from the Crypt. You'll be scared silly as you witness: A murdered father back from the grave for Father's Day cake - and revenge!...A crashed meteor oozing gunk that gets everything growing, including human flesh!...A professor selecting his shrewish wife as an hors d'oeuvres for a ravenous Bigfoot-like monster!...A diabolical beach party with Cheers star Ted Danson up to his neck in terror!...The gruesom results when a malevolent millionaire who fears insects goes eyeball to bugeye with about six-jillion cockroaches! King and Romero. The right talents. The right mix of humor and horror. Let the Creepshow begin! |
