Critics Consensus

A smart, oddball take on found-footage horror, Creep is clever and well-acted enough to keep viewers on the edges of their seats.

Jason Bailey

Flavorwire

Within its commercial framework, they're taking real chances - and 'Creep' is, in many ways, a puzzling character study in a found-footage horror movie's clothing.

Duplass's fantastically unhinged performance establishes what Brice fails to convey ...

New York Times

The film is remarkable, considering its minimal means and surprising lack of bloodshed, given the genre. Does it stay with you? A little.

Jeffrey M. Anderson

Common Sense Media

It was obviously inspired by other two-hander horror thrillers, but this micro-budget, no-frills wonder gets the job done spectacularly, generating suspense through human behavior and threat.

Rated: 4/5

Deep Focus Review

It’s among the funniest and scariest horror-comedies of this century, blending mumblegore independence with a found footage aesthetic to create a destabilizing, unforgettable experience.

Rated: 4/4

The Wolfman Cometh

Anchored entirely by the likability of Duplass, one of the few horror-comedies that will keep you questioning the authenticity of whether to be disturbed or delighted by what you're seeing unfold.

This movie sucked. I want the hour and 17 minutes I wasted in my life back. Go find another movie.

This is very much a different type of horror that feels comedic yet dark. It's not horror comedy, but... I'm not sure how to describe it. It's a movie with two distinct halves. The first half consists of Aaron and Josef hanging out and filming footage. It slowly builds up Josef and his eccentric personality before the climax, where the truth is revealed: Josef doesn't have cancer, he doesn't have a wife, he isn't going to have a child, everything was a lie. It's amazing, and the scene with Josef dancing in front of the door is amazing. Then we reach the second half: the cat and mouse game with Aaron and Josef. This is the best part of the movie. You see the slow buildup of Josef sending Aaron videos, a locket and eventually telling him to meet him at the park. Then there's the tense scene of Aaron sitting down and seeing Josef slowly approach him before killing him. It's a very well constructed horror movie. Overall, a very different but effective type of horror.

It’s a thoroughly unique film. While you could compare it to The Blair Witch Project or Paranormal Activity or any other found-footage film, it really stands alone as a character study. Compelling, strange and unsettling.

This is such a believable scary movie, other movies should follow this trend.
