Five grisly tales from a kid's comic book about a murdered father rising from his grave, a bizarre meteor, a vengeful husband, a mysterious crate's occupant, and a plague of cockroaches.
Where to Watch Creepshow
- Ecto-1ANovember 3, 2025🕯️ Five tales. One twisted masterpiece. Still creeping after all these years. Creepshow is definitely one of the best horror anthology films out there. I grew up watching this and many others like it, but Creepshow still ranks in my Top 5 for its storytelling, special effects, scare factor and pacing. Putting two masters of the macabre, George A. Romero and Stephen King together was like capturing lightning in a bottle. Each of the five stories has its own flavor of creepiness, ranging from genuinely terrifying to darkly funny (not necessarily in that order).
