Creepshow

What is going on here? The writing and the production values are terrible in season two, though it's still pulling the star power of season one. I hope they just put the terrible episodes early in the season.

First season was generally ok. Had some interesting stories, actors, effects and whole nine yards but season two kinda sucks.

I don't think there is something specifically bad about season two. It's just that the novelty worn off pretty quick and although it's only 3 episodes in season two, there's just no that factor X. So I'm pretty sure I'm tunning out before season ends.

The original Creepshow is one of my all-time favourite horror flicks, but after the disappointment of the Twilight Zone reboot, I was a little nervous about this one. Thankfully this one gets the anthology format right. For starters, the episodes are short and sweet. They're well-written/acted/directed, with plenty of atmosphere and a terrific sense of fun and the macabre. For fans of the first two Creepshow films, and Stephen King in general, there are easter eggs galore! I enjoyed the hell out of the first two stories (especially the doll house ep) and can't wait to see what the rest of the season has in store.

I wasn't expecting much, but these first two episodes were actually quite fun; some cool practical effects, good casting, and some great little call backs and homages to the original 2 movies (Chief Woodenhead, Yellow mack of the hitchhiker...and more!). These episodes show that you can still entertain and dish out some creeps without having to chuck $$$$$ and endless jump scares (IT 2 I'm looking at you).

Saw an episode of season 1 and liked it so I subscribed to Shudder, then season 2 wasn't nearly as good but had its moments, Season 3 was painful to watch. The acting was never stellar but season 3 hit a new low in that regard for the series, but more importantly the stories just became simply not entertaining. It's fairly obvious they let a personal agenda take over the stories, and usually when that occurs it becomes more mockable than anything else. It's sad because I'm a fan of horror anthologies, and they ran this straight into the ground. I recommend season 1, recommend season 2 but it's more hit and miss, and season 3 is as enjoyable as the latest Twilight Zone.
