Scream Factory Announces ‘Creepshow’ Blu-ray With New Extras and New Transfer!

Creepshow Father's Day

In 1982, Stephen King and George A. Romero came together to craft horror gold with Creepshow, an all-time great and arguably the best horror anthology ever made. Given how beloved it is, it’s the perfect film to get Scream Factory‘s Collector’s Edition treatment, and the company just announced this morning that it is indeed joining their collection!

We are proud (and so unbelievably excited) to reveal today that we are prepping to release the classic George A. Romero and Stephen King 1982 anthology CREEPSHOW this Fall in an all-new upgraded presentation!” Scream Factory revealed today. “Because we feel this is a rather huge and beloved title, we are rolling this out a little more uniquely so please read carefully for all the details that we have at the time.”

Naturally, this will be branded as a “Collector’s Edition” but packaged a bit differently than we have done in the past for other CEs. This will come with a rigid slipcover (like what we did with the deluxe version release of Nightbreed) that will house a Blu-ray case and a collectible booklet featuring a new essay from Michael Gingold (Fangoria, Rue-Morgue, Dellirium). The newly-commissioned artwork pictured on the slipcase is from Laz Marquez (Army of Darkness, The Howling and Lifeforce steelbooks).

• The Blu-ray case wrap inside will be reversible featuring original theatrical artwork on both sides. (The “ticket booth” one and the “Comic book” one.)

• New extras and specs are still in progress and will be announced later in September. Rest-assured we have plenty planned and…we are in progress of doing an all-new film transfer!

• This will be the national release which streets on October 23rd. U.S. and Canada territories (Region A).

THE FOLLOWING INFO BELOW REFERS TO THE EXCLUSIVE LIMITED-EDITION WEBSITE OFFER (ONLY 1,500 AVAILABLE). If you order Creepshow from our site directly you will receive the Blu-ray two weeks early and the following exclusively-made-for us items: 

  • A rolled 28.5” x 16.5” lithograph poster of the slipcase art by Laz Marquez 
  • A rolled 18” x 24” poster of alternative art illustration, also by Laz Marquez
