Storyline

EC Comics-inspired weirdness returns with three tales. In the first, a wooden statue of a Native American comes to life...to exact vengeance on the murderer of his elderly owners. In the second, four teens are stranded on a raft on a lake with a blob that is hungry. And in the third, a hit and run woman is terrorized by the hitchhiker she accidentally killed...or did she really kill him? Written by <Blythe379@cs.com>

Trivia

Deke and Randy call each other by the nicknames "Poncho" (Randy) and "Cisco" (Deke). These two character names are borrowed from "The Cisco Kid", the TV show playing in the background during the film's first story, "Old Chief Wood'nhead". See more »

Goofs

Continuity: Deke is clearly pulled down by the sludge through a hole broken in the boards, yet his hand is shown being dragged down between intact boards, with the hole nowhere in sight. See more »

Quotes

Mr. Haig: Here's your package, Billy. COD, nine dollars and ninety-nine cents. Mighty expensive for a toy ordered out of a funny paper.
Billy: Creepshow is not a funny paper. And this is no toy.
Mr. Haig: Well, what is it then?
Billy: It's a Venus flytrap bulb!
Mr. Haig: A Venus what-bulb?
Billy: Venus flytrap. It's a plant that eats MEAT!
[makes chomping-mouth gestures with his hands]
Billy: GRRRAAARRRRR!

Crazy Credits

.After the credits are over the following text appears:
"Juvinile delinquency is the product of pent up frustrations,
stored up resentments and bottled up fears, it is not the product
of cartoons and captions, but the comics are a handy, obvious,
and uncomplicated scapegoat. If the adults who crusade against
them would only get steamed up over much basic causes of
delinquency as parental ignorance, indifference, and cruelty. they
might discover that comic books are no more then a menace than
"Treasure Island" or "Jack the giant killer"
