    • Trivia
      Daniel Beer, who played Randy in the segment "The Raft" almost died from hypothermia. The water was so cold his body turned green. The crew wanted him to continue acting, but Director Michael Gornick said if they get him to keep working, he will walk off the set and never return. So they took him to the hospital and he made a full recovery, and completed the segment of "The Raft."
    • Goofs
      When Annie Lansing is looking out of the back of her car to see if the hitchhiker is still running behind her, he has disappeared but instead you can see a crewmember through the upper left corner of the car window.
    • Quotes

      Sam Whitemoon: Look at this. Look at this sweetheart. Tell me this ain't a movie star. What're you, kiddin'? They gotta make me a movie star. Hey. As soon as they see this hair they gonna say, "Sam, get over here. Get in front of these cameras." There's a hundred million women out there just waiting to run this hair between their legs.

    • Crazy credits
      After the credits are over the following text appears: "Juvenile 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, uncomplicated scapegoat. If the adults who crusade against them would only get steamed up over such 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". (Colliers Magazine, 1949).
    • Alternate versions
      When initially released to Blu-ray in Germany, it was heavily cut down by almost 10 minutes.

    A step down from the 1st film, but still a decent watch

    Creepshow 2 has Steven King and George Romero returning for this sequel but only in the writing. The budget is substantially lower and so is the overall quality of the production. With that said, it is still fairly entertaining anthology horror based of the EC comics. In the original film there were 5 short stories, in this there are 3(because they ran out of money). Had there been a bigger budget and with George Romero directing this could have been closer in quality to the original Creepshow. Having said that this is still a good time passer and a basically a bridge between Creepshow and the excellent Tales From The Crypt series, which was awesome and would be on HBD for a long time.
