Creepshow Reviews

A quality set of shorts, it was fun seeing where several of the episodes from the show got their inspiration. Also, hats off to the hiring director for casting Leslie Nielsen, before this I wouldn’t have expected him to be so intimidating, best part of the movie

I really wish George A. Romero and Stephen King would have worked together more often because this movie is magic from start to finish. My favorite story stars Stephen King as a hillbilly with a meteor! LOL Great effects by Tom Savini, great score and cinematography as well.

All the segments were great, ‘cept for Father’s Day and the wraparound (which weren’t bad). The Leslie Nielsen one was shockingly good and makes me want watch more dramatic roles from him.

John Foster’s review published on Letterboxd:

A decent, fun homage to the EC horror comics of the 1950's. Not as clever and scary as the source material. It's fun watching Leslie Nielsen be evil.

Not the usual horror movie but still quite entertaining. Pretty cool practical effects.

Thought it would be better honestly, still enjoy certain moments but it’s alright in general nothing groundbreaking

The best part of this movie is the poster. Effects don’t hold up past the year they were made, and the stories are lacking any decent tension. I love horror anthologies, but this left a lot to be desired.

Classic

campy and hilarious
i really liked the editing and the special effects, it was all very charming
i also liked all the monsters and undead designs, it was fun how different they were
the bug one made me sooo itchy
i think my favorites were father’s day and the crate

Definitely gets better the further you go along. I enjoyed Stephen kings character and Leslie Nelson was awesome.

A classic

( 8/10 ⭐️)

I love this movie. It's super silly and cheesy but it's a really fun watch

Love this anthology movie and all the practical effects. i watched this all the time growing up and each story is so great.
