A New Generation of Terror Has Arisen in the New Trailer for Shudder's CREEPSHOW Series
“You know it’s ok to be scared, right?”
Shudder has released another trailer for Greg Nicotero’s upcoming Creepshow series, which is based on the classic horror anthology film of Stephen King and George Romeo.
I’m super excited about this series revival, and the stories that are going to be told sound like some good old-fashioned creepy fun. You can tell that the creative team had a great time making this series and telling these stories.
This new trailer offers a lot of great new footage teasing the wonderfully terrorizing madness that awaits.
We have some information on all twelve of the stories that will be told during the first season and I’ve listed them again below in case you missed them or want to read through them again.
The cast for the series includes Adrienne Barbeau, Giancarlo Esposito, David Arquette, Tobin Bell, and Dana Gould, Jeffrey Combs, Kid Cudi, Big Boi, Bruce Davison, Jeffery Combs, and DJ Qualls.
The follow twelve stories will be shown over the course of six episodes and here are the details on each one:
