Retro Festive Creepshow

Broke Horror Fan presents Creepshow: Animated Special & Holiday Special on limited edition, fully functional VHS. The latest tape goes on sale next Thursday, October 26, at 12 PM EST/9 AM PST via Witter Entertainment.

The two episodes arrive on VHS together with two variants: a standard slipcase and a book box edition with a flip-open cover and a yellow tape (limited to 100). Both versions feature artwork by Graham Humphreys and Devon Whitehead.

For optimal VHS viewing, the episodes have been cropped from their original aspect ratio to 4:3 full frame.

A Creepshow Animated Special features segments based on short stories by Stephen King and Joe Hill. It’s directed by Greg Nicotero (The Walking Dead) and stars Kiefer Sutherland (The Lost Boys) and Joey King (The Conjuring).

A Creepshow Holiday Special is written and directed by Greg Nicotero. Adam Pally (Happy Endings) and Anna Camp (True Blood) star, with a special appearance by Lil Yachty.

Creepshow itself was first devised as a cinematic homage to the E.C. comics of the 1950s and was created by two titans of terror in the form of Stephen King and Dawn of the Dead director George A. Romero. Together, they spawned three films, which Nicotero worked on. The original Creepshow is a classic slice of gaudy horror anthology goodness, and even the first sequel provides some genuine highlights.

The Creepshow series has just reached its fourth season, and a Creepshow video game was recently announced in conjunction with DreadXP.
