Imagine if Magic Johnson & Larry Bird both played for the Celtics in the early 80s. That’s what it was like in bringing two masters of horror, Stephen King and George Romero together for Creepshow, the finest horror anthology ever created. This week Mike, Jerry & Brian sit down to talk about the impact this movie had on their horror fandom, and take a deep dive into each of the five segments that make up the film. Creepshow remains a fan favorite almost forty years after its release due to its perfect blend of black humor, spectacular special effects, and grim morality tales that both terrify and tickle the funny bone. There aren't many movies that create this many iconic characters in such a short period of time: a cake-seeking zombie, a meteor-shit covered country bumpkin, a shrewish wife with a nasty word for everyone, & a racist Scrooge with a dislike for bugs to name a few. Along the way, Mike may or may not reveal a little too much about certain fetishes that pique his curiosity. We also take some time to answer questions and comments from our listeners regarding the Creepshow franchise.
