Genuinely creepy, satirical and occasionally daft horror tales with a distinctly moral bent.

Creepshow is a horror comedy film inspired by the E.C. comics of the 1950s. The movie features five terrifying tales of murder and the macabre, each with its own unique style and twist. The stories are linked together by the Creep, a mysterious figure who introduces each tale and brings them to life in a way that will leave you screaming for more. The film opens with a young boy named Billy who is obsessed with horror comics, particularly the latest issue of Creepshow. His father, tired of his son's fascination with the macabre, throws away the comic and forbids him from reading it. But Billy is not one to give up easily. He sneaks into his father's room and retrieves the comic from the trash, determined to uncover its dark secrets. As he delves deeper into the world of Creepshow, Billy finds himself transported to a realm where horror comes to life. The Creep appears before him, beckoning him closer and inviting him to experience five chilling stories that will leave you on the edge of your seat. Each tale is a masterclass in terror, exploring themes of revenge, murder, and supernatural phenomena.
