Stephen Oct 28 It was great to see this film back on the big screen after 43 years (a 40th Anniversary screening was a missed opportunity!). The third of Stephen King's very hit or miss theatrical film adaptions. As the original tagline boasts "...the most fun you'll have being scared...". Great practical special effects, lots of well-placed jump scares, a cast (including a pre-"Cheers" Ted Danson and very young Ed Harris) - and the late Leslie Nielsen at his unhinged best! Plus, cameos by director George A. Romero's stable, including John Amplas (who portrayed the title character from GAR's "Martin" a reanimated corpse here) and Christine Forrest (GAR's wife) as well as an uncredited Ned Beatty during a phone conversation during the last segment - among several others. With Stephen King and George A, Romero at the helm, this is what a horror anthology should be...the (inevitable) sequels and others of this genre - "Trick 'R Treat" comes to mind - all pale by comparison to this 1982 classic. It's Halloween time...watch this - but not alone! See more Kia B Oct 15 As creepy as ever! Perfect! See more David S. Dec 4 The mother of all anthology films, this unique and subversive film, is so out of left field that it actually works!!! A fun, if a bit crazy, the whole film is good from beginning to end, and I have to say if I'm going to waste time this is how to do it!!! Love you Creepshow!!!

See more Gabriel T @GabrielFagundes Nov 15 It's chilling, funny, captivating and still simple. All stories were good or excellent. It had some beautiful old-school practical effects and colourful aesthetic. To be honest, I don't know why this movie doesn't have a higher approval See more Julian C @juliancooper_12 Nov 1 Every story in this anthology is unique and I like how the different stories appeal to the different fears that viewers have. You get notable 80s actors like Adrienne Barbeau and Leslie Nielson that do a great job. Stephen King stars in his own story and does a descent job with his acting. I'm mixed on the comic book feel of the film, however. When they transition stories with the flipping of the comic book, it feels like you're watching a PG-rated horror movie made for children, but when you get the cool Tom Savini practical gore effects you remember that the film is rated R. In my opinion, it makes the movie feel a little corny. But, overall this is my favorite horror anthology of all time. See more Read all reviews
