Creepshow | Stephen King

Mehso-so

An illustrated adaptation of the creepy, campy 1982 movie, released in conjunction with the film. I think the stories are a little more successful in the movie, but the comic does a decent enough job.

This was a fun graphic novel by the master himself, Stephen King. Five creepy tales are told in a very tongue-in-cheek manner by the grim reaper. Not to be taken too seriously but very disturbing nonetheless and perfect for this time of year. 4⭐️

Creepshow | Stephen King

Pickpick

A ghoulishly fun graphic novel adaptation of the Stephen King-penned Creepshow, this little number is bursting with prosaic and artistic style pulled straight from the pages of the '50s-era horror comics that inspired it. While these are not the most clever stories King has written, there are some standouts, including "The Lonesome Death of Jordy Verrill", "Something to Tide You Over", and "They're Creeping Up On You". 4/5

I'm sorry I won't be joining the group read this time, but how could I not post a creepy playlist? I took some favorites from past Halloween playlists and added some new discoveries. I tried organizing by genre: classical, film scores, rock, hip hop, and electronic.
Happy Halloween all 🎃!

BarbaraBB I LOVE your playlist! Such an eclectic mix between classic and current. I can‘t wait to listen to it. Tomorrow. It‘s bedtime here! 2y
vivastory This list is so good! I love the inclusion of classic tracks & film scores & am honestly kicking myself for not doing likewise. Night on Bald Mountain, Danse Macabre, Bernard Hermann=perfection! 2y

Billypar @BarbaraBB Thanks! And it's true that these playlists are not great to listen to before bed 😬😱 2y
Billypar @vivastory Thanks! I used to have a couple of Halloween compilation CD's--one of classical music and the other with film scores--that I would always play every October. They always seemed to go so well with the cooler weather and fall scenery. 2y

First book of October done! My friends and I watched this movie a lot when we were teens. The graphic novel is just as creepy as the movie was, especially The Crate and They‘re Creeping Up On You. Those two parts of the movie gave me nightmares. Nice artwork, and great way to start my October reading. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Great collection of classic style horror comics. 💀 I love all the cheesy puns throughout, and the 5 stories were a fun trip down memory lane since I vividly remember this movie from my childhood.

The Crate was my favorite. 👍

Hey #losersclub! Just a reminder that next month we have TWO books on the schedule: a graphic novel and the first book in The Dark Tower series! I‘ll do a separate discussion post for each, but both will be on the same day (unless I drop the ball again, because I suck 🤷🏻‍♀️ ). So, beg, borrow, or buy your copies and get ready to read these two next month!

Who is your favorite controversial author?

It‘s always been Stephen King for me. I don‘t agree with his use of racial and homophobic slurs or Native American imagery and folklore, but I can‘t help but love his books and his political commentary on twitter.

Who‘s yours? #gettoknowme

emtobiasz Roald Dahl was racist and anti-Semitic, but I still find his books for children so strange and delightful. It‘s a conundrum, trying to decide if a work is or should be viewed separately from its creator. 6y

GarthRanzz Yes he is! He likes to pop up in his movies like Hitchcock. He was in the Weeds segment playing Jordy Verrill. You may recognise that last name as one he used in ‘Salem‘s Lot. 7y

Quoting on Litsy has no point. Garbage collection is more like it. I can make nonsense up about the contents of a book and then some poor shrub is either going to have edit or delete it before some unsuspecting noob believes the crap written about the book. Litsy = spam all the way. Buh bye.
