Storyline
Five tales of terror are presented. The first deals with a demented old man returning from the grave to get the Father's Day cake his murdering daughter never gave him. The second is about a not-too-bright farmer discovering a meteor that turns everything into plant-life. The third is about a vengeful husband burying his wife and her lover up to their necks on the beach. The fourth is about a creature that resides in a crate under the steps of a college. The final story is about an ultra-rich businessman who gets his comeuppance from cockroaches. Written by Todd A. Bobenrieth <TAB146@PSUVM.EDU>

Trivia
Originally, in Stephen King's first draft 142-page screenplay for the film, the stories "The Crate" and "Something to Tide You Over" switched places. Making "The Crate" story number 3 and "Tide" story number 4. This is also how the Berni Wrightson Creepshow graphic novel adaptation turned out. See more »Goofs
Factual errors: In the segment "Father's Day" - which purportedly takes place on Father's Day (which is in June) - it is already completely dark outside by 7pm. By this time in June it wouldn't be completely dark outside until much later in the evening. See more »Quotes
