TV Evaluate: Shudder’s Creepshow Is Catnip for Horror Hounds
The Pitch: In 1982, horror maestros George A. Romero and Stephen King joined forces to rejoice the spine-tingling EC Comics that gave them the stone-cold willies of their ’50s childhoods. The outcome was Creepshow, a delightfully arch anthology of spooky tales crammed with ghosts, ghouls and (as King’s cameo places it) “meteor shit!” that is still a cult favourite to at the present time. Now, horror streaming service Shudder, whose creepy capital has skyrocketed within the final 12 months, is reviving the idea with 12 spooky tales meant to seize the bone-crunching legacy of the age-old horror comics.
