Creepshow

The Crate is my favourite of #1 and The Raft in #2 but the cockroach and seaweed like monsters in 1 were very good and when the hand came out of the grave in 'fathers day" and the woman fell in.

Top stuff.

The Creepshow movies are two of my favorite horror movies ever. I especially like it when someone is about to die and they cut to the frames of them screaming with red or green lights on behind them. That is just stupendous (sp?).
I like Creepshow better than Creepshow 2, and out of Creepshow I like the Crate the best. Her death scene (as described above) is just soooo good.

My fave scene out of either of them is when the old lady (Aunt somethingorother) in "Father's Day" spills some whiskey on the dad's grave, which miraculously brings him back from the dead. As a heavy drinker and whiskey man myself, I found that to be particularly gratifying, and when someone brings up how drinking straight whiskey is bad, I just bring out this scene as "Exhibit A" in my case of "Extoling the Virtues of Drinking Hard Liquor." My second fave scene is when the younger guy shows up, sees the bottle on the ground, looks through the top opening (classic!) and then shrugs (in a good old fashioned, "what the hell" way) and drinks it. He gets iced shortly thereafter.

So yeah, Creepshow is great.

Though decision to take. The Raft and The Crate were two damn good shorties.

But for the originality of it, I guess I'll stick with The Raft as my first choice, follow just a few inches behind by The Crate.

Favorite Creepshow Story From Both Movies Combined

My mom did this one a long time ago. I decided to do it again, because there are so many different people here now. My favorite is "The Hitchhiker", but right now I'm watching "Something To Tide You Over":D

"If you can hold your breath"

"I...can hold my breath...for a looong time":cool:

Tough choice.
I think I'll go with "The Crate" from the first.

I actually thought "The Raft" from the second was the best. Although, "The Hitchhiker" is better than any story in the first film.

The raft is not bad, all the way until the end, when it is obvious that the guy was just eaten by a garbage bag on an aluminum frame....
