Review of Creepshow (1982) by Dawdlingpoet — 25 Nov 2021

Any film with Ted Danson and Leslie Nielson in it is alright with me!. Its very much cooky/quirky, with a comic book feel and indeed comic book style illustrations shown in the interlude between the different stories portrayed.

It is of course quite spooky, with spooky castle type eery music played in the background for most of the film. You could say its over the top - its very much a film of the 80s in any case. Its the sort of film that does leave you feeling a little edgy, like something sudden may happen at any moment, just about, although I can't say I found it particularly scary.

Its too comic for that, with the supposed blood being a very, very bright red (think particularly red tomato ketchup). I'd say its worth a watch, yes.
