It’s hard for a sequel to be better than the original; no, hey! Don’t close the video, and please hold all hate in the comments until the end of the video. I’m not saying Creepshow 2 is better than the first movie; that’s just silly. Creepshow 2 sits in an interesting spot as it lost its original director and writer (for the most part) but does an admirable job trying to capture the feel of part 1. It could be worse right? Part 3 is one of the worst sequels of all time. While I prefer its spiritual successor, Tales From The Darkside, Creepshow 2 deserves its time in the sun and is one of the better Black Sheep’s in horror.

This was one of the first horror movies I saw as a kid. My aunt and I would sit around watching horror movies. She would be totally fine with all the brutal deaths and language but would rush over to cover my eyes if there was about to be some nudity. I miss and love my aunt she got me hooked on movies in horror movies, especially this one, which has a special place in my heart.
The best 3-segment anthology movie is still the Italian version of Mario Bava's BLACK SABBATH (1963).
Me and one of my best friends would rent this movie at least twice a month his dad would get pissed he rented that movie so many times that and Friday the thirteen part five ahhh the good old days
Totally agree with your analysis, but as a die-hard fan of Creepshow 2, I've got to say this sequel holds its own unique charm! The budget cuts actually helped the film focus on three solid stories, making each one memorable. Stephen King's involvement with "The Raft" was a major win, and while the cast might not be as star-studded as the original, George Kennedy and Lois Chiles still nailed their roles. Director Michael Gornick captured the Creepshow vibe perfectly, even if he wasn't Romero. Special effects? Come on, that lake monster was terrifying, trash bags or not! Honestly, I'd say the stories here can go toe-to-toe with episodes of Tales from the Crypt. This sequel deserves more love, and if you're a true fan, that Arrow Blu-ray is a must-own. Don't sleep on Creepshow 2; it's got its own creepy charm that makes it a staple in my Halloween watchlist every year! 🎃
This movie is like a time capsule to me. I've seen it well over 50 times and I still love it like I did when I was 10 yrs old watching it. A TRUE CLASSIC in eyes!! THANKS 4 THE RIDE LADY!!!! THANKS 4 THE RIDE!!!!
I read The Raft in King's book when it came out and it stuck with me because it was so horrifying. I didn't think the the movie could capture the feel of the short story, but it did.
The Raft was scary AF*! I still dont like the concept of floating docks. It's a Nope 4 me 😂
Ive always loved CS2. Personally I enjoy it better than the first, which I know is sacrilege to some……but Ive always been a sucker for sequels that are often said to suck or be a step down from the original. Creep Show 2, Ghostbusters 2, Predator 2, Gremlins 2, Robocop 2, Hellraiser 2. All of these I either prefer to the orginal or put it on par with the orginal.
Of all the sequels considered better than original I cannot believe you didn't even mention Terminator 2: Judgment Day. 🙄This freakin' guy!🤦🏽♂️
And I love how everyone in the comments are fundamentally disagreeing with you about 2 either being bad, not as good, or worst than the first one.
I've always enjoyed 2 more than one.
Love this movie…so many teenage years memories…miss the 80's
Damn great movie that for a sequel, is wonderful.
Even though creepshow 1982 is way good cause it was supposedly 5 jolting tales of horror from a boy comic book.
This was my favorite!!! The Raft freaked me out when I was younger and made me scared to even walk out onto docks to go fishing. Such sweet, creepy nostalgia!!!
To be clear, George Kennedy wasn't in the "Police Squad" series. Alan North played Captain Ed Hocken in the series, which George Kennedy played in the "Naked Gun" films.
I watch Creepshow 2 more than Creepshow tbh, I do find the first movie a bit long winded. Creepshow 2 is a great beer movie too.
Creepshow 2 has always been more re-watchable for me 💀
i remember not liking the 3rd film.. but i remember rewacthing it a year after its release and i appreciated it for what it was. especially the radio segment. heh. good stuff.
I had an older buddy that was exactly like one of the guys from the Raft, story. Hilarious to see mannerisms that matched so closely with a real person.
Loved this as a kid. I found it scarier than the first. The chief when he comes to life and yells has stayed with me forever. Fear of lakes! Then the hitchhiker is just horrifying, you don’t know if she’s imagining it or if it’s actually happening. The first one only has the crate that is scary. Father’s Day is funny
The one with King is sad
Leslie Neilson is hilarious in the Tide one
And the roach one is just gross . I love both movies tho
Unpopular opinion: I like 2 better than 1.
I DISAGREE…..WITH YOU 100%….PART 1 IS SO (OVER HYPED)…PART 2 IS WAY BETTER….& I'M 100% RIGHT!
I enjoyed both
George Kennedy was hilarious
I was watching this movie recently. I definitely like it. 👍
