What to Know

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. May 27, 2016 Full Review Simon Abrams Village Voice Duplass's fantastically unhinged performance establishes what Brice fails to convey ... Sep 2, 2015 Full Review Andy Webster 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. Sep 1, 2015 Full Review 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 Jun 4, 2024 Full Review Brian Eggert 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 Oct 26, 2023 Full Review Patrick Cavanaugh 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.

Tasha L One of the best “found footage” movies I’ve seen in a while. Especially considering the low budget it was definitely well done. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/15/25 Full Review Aya A No idea why the other reviews claim its a work of art/ groundbreaking film. This movie was pure , raw unfiltered garbage. Worst movie ive ever seen , would rather be strapped to an electric chair for the 1hr runtime of this movie. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 03/08/25 Full Review Andrew M Creep is a great minimalist film that proves you don’t need a big budget or flashy effects to deliver an unnerving and memorable horror experience. The film centers on a freelance videographer (Patrick Brice) who answers a cryptic Craigslist ad to document the final days of a terminally ill man, Josef (Mark Duplass). What starts as an odd but seemingly innocent gig slowly morphs into something far darker and more disturbing. The real magic of Creep lies in its simplicity. The found-footage style, often overused in horror, is handled with precision here, creating an intimate atmosphere that makes every moment feel personal and real. Mark Duplass is magnetic as Josef, effortlessly oscillating between endearing, eccentric, and utterly terrifying. His performance carries the movie, keeping you on edge as you try to decipher whether he’s a quirky loner or a dangerous predator. However, the film isn’t without its flaws. While the slow buildup is effective in establishing tension, certain scenes feel repetitive, as if the filmmakers were stretching out the runtime to meet feature length. The extended ending, while unsettling, pushes the boundaries of believability, requiring viewers to suspend their disbelief perhaps a bit too far. That said, Creep excels in generating unease through its exploration of human behavior. It’s a movie that sticks with you, not because of graphic violence or jump scares, but because it taps into the primal discomfort of being trapped in an unpredictable and menacing situation. For fans of psychological horror and intimate thrillers, Creep offers a fresh and chilling experience. Its imperfections are overshadowed by its ability to provoke genuine tension and leave you questioning the boundaries of trust and vulnerability. Rating: 4/5 A well-acted, unsettling film that occasionally stumbles with pacing and plausibility but still delivers an eerie and thought-provoking ride. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/05/25 Full Review Osamah S really scary movie with a lot of creativity. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/28/25 Full Review thy a Biased review because i kinda hate this specific subgenre of scary movies but realistically super creepy and well done. Definitely worth checking out. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/05/25 Full Review Gil L What a waste of my life. The worst movie I have ever seen.
