I didnt think Creepshow 2 was very good. It really shows that Romero wasnt directing, the style is totally different and not nearly as cool. OK movie I guess, but doesnt even hold a candle to #1. Worth seeing once, but if I'd had a choice, I definatly wouldnt have bought it. My recomendation is save your $13 [thats what it cost me, and I got it in the states so US$], and just rent/download it.

The stories were OK. Ol' Chief Woodenhead was stupid until it was almost over [It did get REALLY cool at the end though], The Raft was BY FAR the best of the lot, but still not comparable to even the worst of #1, and The Hitchhiker was boring and didnt make much sence. And as I mentioned before, it all but abandons the style that George set in the original.

I guess it's worth seeing for yourself though....
Thanks for the warning.

I trust and agree with your opinions usually, so I think I'll take your advice and just rent it.

Thanks!
