The first Creepshow film - based on the old Weird Tales/EC Comics of the 50's - was a big budget all star anthology film. It was a collaboration between George A Romero and Stephen King (who even starred in one of the stories) and had stars like Ted Danson, Leslie Nielsen, Ed Harris.
This one has no stars - no decent director but surprisingly a screenplay from George A Romero and the last segment The Raft actually written by King (who I dont rate very highly anyway) and no imagination compared to the original.
The stories are basic and bland - the first one has a Wooden Red Indian that you see outside US stores in films like this, coming to life to kill those who robbed and killed the storeowner, the 2nd, The Raft, has a group of generic teens terrorised by a black blob that looks like oil slick whilst sunning themselves on a raft in a lake and the final one is a rip off of an old Hammer House of Horror story from their 70's magazine - hit and run driver is haunted by the man she ran over.
They are enjoyable in a daft way but are just too boring and short to enter the hallowed hall of fame that includes all other so bad they're good horror films.
Dont waste your brain power or eyesight on this cynical cash-in.
