THIS IS HORROR AT ITS MOST TWISTED… Full Length Watch Alongs & Early Access: https://www.patreon.com/thereelrejects Gift Someone (Or Yourself) An RR Tee! https://shorturl.at/hekk2 Tara Erickson, Roxy Striar & Andrew Gordon dive into one of horror’s most iconic anthologies, bringing you their Creepshow (1982) reaction, recap, commentary, breakdown, analysis, and full movie spoiler review!! Tara Erickson, Roxy Striar & Andrew Gordon react to and break down Creepshow (1982), the cult-classic horror anthology directed by George A. Romero (Night of the Living Dead, Dawn of the Dead) and written by Stephen King (The Shining, IT), blending EC Comics-inspired storytelling with over-the-top practical effects and darkly comedic terror. This film delivers multiple chilling stories, each with its own unforgettable tone and twisted payoff. From the undead Father’s Day revenge tale to the eerie meteor story starring Stephen King himself, the film constantly shifts between horror and humor while embracing its comic book roots through stylized transitions, bold lighting, and panel-like framing — something the hosts repeatedly call out as one of the movie’s most unique strengths . The anthology also features standout segments like the beach revenge story with Leslie Nielsen (Airplane!, The Naked Gun) and Ted Danson (Cheers, The Good Place), delivering one of the film’s most suspenseful and disturbing scenarios, as well as “The Crate,” where a mysterious creature unleashes chaos in a college setting. The final segment ramps up the horror with one of the most infamous sequences in the film, leaning fully into nightmare fuel with its relentless intensity and practical effects. With an all-star cast including Ed Harris (The Truman Show, Westworld), Adrienne Barbeau (The Fog, Escape from New York), E.G. Marshall (12 Angry Men, Superman II), and more, Creepshow stands as a love letter to classic horror comics, balancing camp, creativity, and genuinely shocking moments. Throughout the reaction, Tara, Roxy & Andrew highlight the film’s inventive structure, memorable kills, and how each segment brings something different to the table, making it one of the most entertaining and creatively bold horror anthologies ever made.#Creepshow #CreepshowReaction #StephenKing #GeorgeRomero #HorrorMovies #80sHorror #AnthologyHorror #Reaction #MovieReaction #classichorror The Purge (2013) Movie Reaction: https://youtu.be/6JM_KJJHCzQ The Green Mile Movie Reaction: https://youtu.be/4iG0ycLY8PU The Mist (2007) Movie Reaction: https://youtu.be/J5qlalDMxhI Pearl (2022) Movie Reaction: https://youtu.be/jNMJzItfoGc Follow *Tara Erickson* https://www.youtube.com/@TaraErickson https://www.instagram.com/taraerickson/ https://twitter.com/thetaraerickson Follow *Roxy Striar* YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheWhirlGirls Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/roxystriar/?hl=en Twitter: https://twitter.com/roxystriar Follow *Andrew Gordon* https://www.youtube.com/@MovieSource https://www.instagram.com/agor711/?hl=en https://twitter.com/Agor711 0:00 Checking In! 1:13 Creepshow Reaction 56:37 Creepshow Review Intense Suspense by Audionautix is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ RR Clips & Shorts Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@ReelRejectsClips Follow TheReelRejects On The Socials: IG: https://www.instagram.com/reelrejects/ TT: https://www.tiktok.com/@thereelrejects?lang=en TWITTER: https://twitter.com/thereelrejects FB: https://www.facebook.com/TheReelRejects/ Music Used In Ad: Hat the Jazz by Twin Musicom is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Happy Alley by Kevin MacLeod is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Head Editor: https://www.instagram.com/praperhq/?hl=en Supervising Producer: https://twitter.com/nerdchronic?lang=en Co-Editor: Greg Alba Co-Editor: John Humphrey Music In Video: Airport Lounge - Disco Ultralounge by Kevin MacLeod is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Follow & Listen to Us Wherever You Get Your Podcasts!! - Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3XHMwbveiznxSOGxN9XT0M - Google Podcasts: https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9mZWVkcy5tZWdhcGhvbmUuZm0vc3Rhci13YXJzLXRhbGs - Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-reel-rejects-tv-movie-recaps/id1616339990 - Audible: https://www.audible.com/pd/The-Apocalypse-Podcast/B08JJP58FG PLAYLISTS: Trailer Reactions & Reviews: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-bIhJVeYWw9ZsLdoAQFpx38s2hhyFgDe Movie Reviews: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-bIhJVeYWw-comtadVs8b9JsZEWHUyr8 Youtube Video Reactions & Discussions: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-bIhJVeYWw_qwcPsN_vOxXC6IVzrOQYG

Fun fact: They had a cockroach handler and helpers and filmed in a sealed room but they still lost many roaches!!! By the way one of the garbage men was Tom Savini, the special effects legend!! Great reaction!!!

It's HAL Holbrook, and he and Adrienne Barbeau were also in Carpenter's The Fog together.

During my first time watching the cockroach scene, a spider dropped off the ceiling, in front of the TV, and onto my acoustic guitar hard enough to vibrate the strings, and I died and this message was written by my ghost woooOOoOo
