Creepshow

1982

USA

George A. Romero Director
Laurel Entertainment Inc. Production Company
Warner Brothers Distributor

Father's Day:
A family reunion gets complications.

The Lonesome Death of Jordy Verrill:
Hick farmer encounters outer-space meteor with green consequences.

Something to Tide You Over:
Ex-husband venges himself on the woman who left him and her new beau.

The Crate:
When a mysterious something is discovered in the basement, a professor hopes to solve the problem of his annoying wife.

They're Creeping up on You:
An OCD businessman gets his just desserts.

Portmanteau effort from Stephen King and George Romero is good, nasty fun particularly The Crate episode. Romero's stock company is bolstered by other genre vets, not to mention a silly turn by King himself.

PS always thought that R rating was a bit harsh.
