Creepshow is also one of my favorite movies. I love the lighting and soundtrack. My least favorite would have to be the last "short" They're Creeping Up on You. My favorite is "The Crate" obviously.

I love Creepshow as well. I've never seen Creepshow 2, but I'm more than a little puzzled as to why it got a Special Edition DVD release with all the bells and whistles, while the more popular and well-known first film is still only available in that darn cardboard snapper case bare-bones release from Warner.

Thats a good question, why would they do that? I mean, the box doesnt bother me, but why make a special edish of the 2nd one?

I think Creepshow is awesome, I even got my own crate :hot: This is a full scale Fluffy crate in my studio.

they are both good movies IMO. theyre not scary, but they are alot of fun with lots of different characters that stand out.

-the crate is awesome, it scared me as a child.
-the cockroach story is very disturbing. even in these desensitized times.
-isnt that the only serious role leslie neilson has ever played? i think he plays that role pretty well.
-"thanks for the ride, lady......."

No, he played serious dramatic roles for many years (FORBIDDEN PLANET) before his gift for comedy was discovered in AIRPLANE.

One day I was babysitting my friends six year old daughter and we decided to go to the local movie-plex to see ET. The theater was packed with mommies and their little creatures. Well, the coming attraction before the picture was for Creepshow, featuring a terrific close-up of Fluffy's wide open, razor-toothed slavering maw accompanied by Adrian Barbeau's blood-curdling screams! I don't think there was a single little rug-crawler that wasn't bawling or screaming their lungs out after that little treat.  That was the best. (Kid thought ET was boring and wanted to see Creepshow in the other theater instead.)

I liked the Crate and the The one with Lesile Nelson. 

"The Raft" from Creepshow 2 freaked me out first time I saw it. 
At least, that's what Gary Busey told me...

That is about the only memorable thing about part 2, watched it again recently and it even that scene didn't hold up well. The first one is great, part 2 really sucks, part 3 havent seen it and dont plan on it.

"Creepshow 2" does star George Kennedy, Dorothy Lamour, and Stephen King, besides that, the first one is better. Never seen the third one, so I can't comment on that.
