Scream Factory is bringing the horror classic Creepshow from writer Stephen King and director George A. Romero to 4K UHD Blu-Ray in a new Collector’s Edition on June 27, 2023. The pair conjure up five shocking yarns, each a virtuoso exercise in the ghouls-and-gags style of classic ’50s horror comics. The film’s ensemble cast includes Hal Holbrook, Adrienne Barbeau, Fritz Weaver, Leslie Nielsen, Carrie Nye, E. G. Marshall, and Viveca Lindfors as well as King himself.
Available for the first time being released in 4K UHD format, this highly anticipated release features a new 4K scan (2023) from the original camera negative in Dolby Vision and comes loaded with special bonus content. The collector’s edition includes limited-edition collectible slipcover packaging with original theatrical poster art and contains a reversible art wrap featuring alternative art. Loyal fans and collectors ordering from ShoutFactory.com will receive an exclusive 18×24 roll poster featuring the original theatrical artwork, available while supplies last. Get more details below!
Synopsis: A murdered man emerges from the grave for Father’s Day cake. A meteor’s ooze makes everything … grow. A professor selects his wife as a snack for a crated creature. A scheming husband plants two lovers up to their necks in terror. A malevolent millionaire with an insect phobia becomes the prey of a cockroach army. Add the spirited performances of an excellent cast (Hal Holbrook, Adrienne Barbeau, Leslie Nielsen, Ted Danson, E.G. Marshall and King himself) and the ghoulish makeup wizardry of Tom Savini, and you have a non-stop, thrilling ride in CREEPSHOW.
