What is the name of this Horror Film???

Question

When I was 6 years old ( I am now 26) I watched a "horror" fim. It absolutly scared me whitless, I didn't sleep for about 2 weeks (NO LIE).

I want to see it again to deal with a few issues resolve my fears and such, but I have no idea what it is called???

I remember that it had a comic book that floated around a town or village. There was a scene where a meteor laded an every thing was covered in moss or something and a guy shot his head off with a shot gun.

There was also a scene where this man was burried dead, but can back to life and bust out of his grave and came back.

Another scene was a man and woman who were burried up to their necks on a beach, the tide came in killed them, but then they came back ike sea-zombies.

I need to see this im again coz my head is still a bit essed up because of it.

Please help me?

Answer 1

sounds like creepshow, but i'm not 100% on that

Answer 2

Yes, you're talking about "Creepshow", my favorite horror movie of all time. It was released in 1982 and was a collaboration between horror icons Stephen King, George A. Romero, and Tom Savini.

The film was meant to be a homage to the old EC comics of the 1950's (Note the similarities between "Creepshow" and HBO's "Tales From The Crypt" TV series from the 1990's)

Next year marks Creepshow's 25th anniversary, which will be celebrated next June in Dallas, Texas. http://www.texasfrightmareweekend.com

Answer 3

It is "creepshow." It was a movie with 4 short stories and they based it on like comic books from the 50's. It was fun and I love the last story where Hal Holbrook throws Adrienne Barbeau into the monster's room in the basement and says, "Just tell it to call you Billie!"

Answer 4

Creepshow by George A. Romero and Stephen King...

Answer 5

Creepshow defo, as i had the same experience as you watching that film, it didnt help that i ate a whole jar of pickles while watching it , and drank the juice as a laugh (was young stupid and would do owt for a laugh! now im older, still stupid and still would do owt for a laugh!) the nightmare i has were unreal, and for months i would go upstairs on my own without taking my younger sister with me! soft i know but hey ho!

Dunno if i could watch it aghain as i would more than likely pee my pants in horror, freedy kruger has the same effect on me too, damn those scay films ruined my child hood they did........

Answer 6

Sorry I can't help you, but I think if I saw that film I would be having nightmares. I once saw the fly when it first came out in a drive-in movie. I remember diving under the seats. You are right you need to see the film again to cast out those demons.

Answer 7

I think that is House on Haunted Hill (1999 film) The plot: Six strangers have the chance to make $1,000,000 EACH. All they have to do is make it through the night alive.

Answer 8

Definately creepshow. I saw it about the same time you did when i was about 6 andit freaked me out too.

Answer 9

its Creepshow my friend,if you watch it again now you will see quite a few famous people in it....Ted Danson,leslie neilson,Ed Harris (he does a really stupid dance in the episode about the birthday cake),if you liked it you should see Creepshow 2,also it was Stephen King who blew his own head off in the meteor one

Answer 10

Definitely creepshow, I remember cos it scared the hell out of me when I was a kid too.

Answer 11

Dang it I remember this too but I cant put my finger on it. I especially recall the beach scene. Somewhere down there in my tiny brain it is saying Stephen King..so maybe it's one of his.
