Everything Coming to Prime Video in September Crazy credits After the credits are over the following text appears: "Juvinile delinquency is the product of pent up frustrations, stored up resentments and bottled up fears, it is not the product of cartoons and captions, but the comics are a handy, obvious, and uncomplicated scapegoat.
If the adults who crusade against them would only get steamed up over much basic causes of delinquency as parental ignorance, indifference, and cruelty. Alternate versions When initially released to Blu-ray in Germany, it was heavily cut down by almost 10 minutes. Connections Featured in Nightmares in Foam Rubber User reviews Review. Top review. A worthy but flawed sequel. Creepshow 2 was released in and was directed by George Romero's regular cinematographer Michael Gornick.
Gornick, who was a late replacement for the original director FX maestro Tiom Savini, cut his directorial teeth on several episodes of Laurel's Tales From The Darkside and was a natural choice to make the film.
He does a commendable job with what is clearly a modest budget and three stories that are not as engaging, gripping and frightening as those available to Romero in his original film. Only one of the three stories has been previously published, the other two being originals devised for the film by Stephen King and scripted by Romero.
It concerns a wooden storefront statue of an old Indian chief that comes to life to avenge the death of two elderly people by a gang of youths. It is the least impressive of the three tales but retains a certain ghoulish charm.
The second story is The Raft. Originally published in King's short story collection Skeleton Crew with a slightly different ending. The segment is about four scantily-clad teenagers who arrive at a deserted lake, late one summer, for an afternoon swim but find that something thoroughly unpleasant is waiting for them.
The special effects are well below par with King himself commenting that the monster in the lake looks something like "a dirty old man's raincoat". However, this episodes's grim punchline would make The Cryptkeeper himself chuckle with approval. The third and probably best story is The Hitchhiker and stars Louis Moonraker Chiles as a bored, rich housewife who regularly enjoys the services of a handsome gigolo.
On her way home from such an encounter she accidentally runs over a young Hitchhiker played by stuntman Tom Wright killing him instantly. Terrrified by the consequences of her actions she quickly leaves the scene of the accident.
However, a few miles down the road she sees the Hitchhiker, bloodied and amazingly returned to life, limping towards her. To reveal any more would be to dampen this segment's sick delights but I will say that it features a neat cameo by King himself as a foul-mouthed truck driver. A fourth story called Pinfall was planned for the movie but later dropped due to the faltering budget. It concerned an overweight band of beer-chugging bowlers that are murdered by a rival bowling team and come back from the dead for revenge in true EC style.
Its a shame we will never get to see this story but it is very close in theme and structure to both Oldf Chief Woodenhead and The Hitchhiker. All in all, Creepshow 2 is worth a look and remains a guilty pleasure of mine that I have enjoyed with alarming regularity over the years.
It may not be up to the standards set by the first Creepshow but there are more painful ways to spend an evening. Ask The Hitchhiker Everybody was really quite respectful of that. I didn't see any hitches in the giddy-up.
We had certain protocols we had to adhere to, we had to wear masks when we weren't talking on camera, we kept swabbed down and our hands clean, and socially distanced when we were supposed to.
With the horror anthology format of Creepshow , what really stood out to you about your episode, "Pesticide"? Keith David: Well, there are many people, and they don't have to be as rich as Mr. Murdoch, who have some despicable feelings about the homeless population and what should be done with them. It ended up being a bit of a political statement, although the episode wasn't really about politics, but it made a big political statement.
The reason why we have so many homeless people is because they're almost seen as outcasts. People like Mr. Murdoch who have the wealth and means to help other people do better don't [because] they just want to keep it to themselves.
So, it's easier for them to get rid of them and treat them like vermin than to treat them like human beings. One of the things to be noticed in the episode is how we as human beings really don't look after ourselves in the best way, and that should be looked at, that should really be thought about. Really, it's up to you and me, the next time you see a homeless [person] on the street, treat them like a human being.
If you have money to contribute, then give them some money or something to eat, but if you don't do anything else but say hello to them, treat them like a human being. What were some of the most memorable experiences or aspects about Creepshow for you?
He's a great actor and it was wonderful seeing him become this other character. I got to watch him make choices as an actor, and when I watch other actors do good work, it teaches me, it inspires me.
