Creepshow 2 Gets A Very Special Edition

September 9, 20164 min

Looks like Arrow Video is giving Creepshow 2 the treatment it deserves with a fantastic Limited Edition Blu-Ray!

This release is a freshly remastered, 2K edition that features all of the same George A. Romero and Steven King anthology tales that you remember. Each with a twisted life lesson. For example, “Old Chief Wooden Head,” teaches us that if you rob someone of Native American jewelry, a wooden indian will come shoot you through the eye with his bow and arrow. “The Raft,” teaches you that if you go swimming in hidden swimming holes, you better look around for fucking warnings about what might be lurking in the waters. And “The Hitch-hiker” reintroduces us to the terrifying world of the hitchhiker, and flips it on its head a bit, by making the hitchhiker a sort of hero in comparison with a sort of disgusting protagonist.

This Creepshow 2 special edition’s box art is enough to make you need it, but the special features definitely solidify that need. Limited Edition content includes…

•Brand new 2K restoration from original film elements

•High Definition Blu-ray (1080p) presentation
