The poster above is our first one-sheet for Shudder’s TV reboot of Creepshow. The show will be based on the fantastic anthology horror films from the 1980s and will be produced by Greg Nicotero of KNB EFX who, as you know, is no slouch in the horror world.

The poster is a fantastic throwback to the original movies. The Creep is front-and-center once again but this time he’s not in a box office booth or the back row of a movie theater. This time he’s in your house, inviting you to see what terrors await on the TV. It’s such a relief that all these years later the producers of Creepshow are intent on keeping the atmosphere and spirit of the movies alive. Thank God.

As the poster says, the show will feature 12 “terrifying tales of terror” and we would expect no less. The production has been compiling an impressive list of performers, writers and directors to helm the series which is more evidence of Shudder and Nicotero taking this project very, very seriously. I’m often weary of reboots or remakes but everything about this Creepshow seems like it’s being made with care, love and affection for the movies that came before it. This poster is just further confirmation of that.

Expect to hear more about Creepshow this week as the show gets its own panel at San Diego Comic-Con. Trailer? Photos? More posters? Give us more, Shudder!

Note the framed picture of George Romero on top of the TV in the poster above. That’s a nice touch.
