the audience applauded

This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama

The first thing I noticed about Tim Ritter's Creep is all the trippy colors, that were seemingly only there to mask the unfortunate looks of that stripper, Kascha played by Kathy Willets. Kascha has a brother named Angus, played to perfection by the legendary, Joel D. Wynkoop. Angus is a serial killer who was in jail for armed robbery, and he recently escaped. Angus hooks up with his sister, together they kill her abusive husband. Meanwhile, a pair of Father and daughter cops are on their trail, but Angus and Kascha don't seem too concerned, they just want to go play in there mothers grave site, both were abused by their sadistic/drug-addicted parents, so I guess that would kind of make sense. At this point, all I can say is, things won't end up like anything resembling what you might think. And just nevermind the fact that Creep was shot on video, as this movie totally rises above. Creep is incredibly fast-paced, and unpredictable, with a decent script tolerable acting (as if it matters). Let's just say, Creep really keeps you on your toes. As politically incorrect as it wants to be, Creep includes such hi jinx as cocaine in the baby food, the humiliation and murder of a fat man, more than enough references to incest to go around, and even our pal, Asbestos Felt drops in for a visit, it's Floridian fun for the whole family, courtesy of Twisted Illusions. Wynkoop does a great job at adding the perfect combination of sleazy and psychotic to the character of Angus, although, Ritter could have done better at casting Kascha. For a much better Tim Ritter Movie, check out Killing Spree, but if you're looking for something more mean-spirited, then Creep it is. I'm sure I would like this a lot more if it weren't shot on video and would probably rate it higher. Anyone who shoots their films on video knows they have to try even harder to impress the viewer (Darkness, Shatter-Dead) I, for one, am fairly impressed. This is modern Exploitation, straight out of the 60's Drive-in. Long live Florida Gore. 7/10

Tim Ritter's CREEP is a movie for people who love low budget sleaze films! This is the kind of movie that was destined to be a drive in classic had it not came along long after the drive in's had their day.The movie is basically about a psycho brother and sister and a Dirty Harry/Death Wish inspired female cop (who also happens to be really hot!). CREEP is kind of like a Natural Born Killers style movie at times with lots of weird angle and cutting. I won't go into any real details because it would spoil the fun of this movie. Just take my word for it that there are lots of twists and turns in this one and everything is in BAD TASTE!! This is not for the PC crowd.Joel Wynkoop (the Ed Wood of acting and my favorite b-movie actor) is having a ball in this film! He gets with a lot of pretty ladies who don't mind taking their clothes off! This movie gets a A+ on the nudity and violence alone! I'd give it an A+ on the storyline as well as it's very well crafted and full of weird characters and situations.There is one problem with CREEP and it's a big one!!!!!! The DVD of CREEP is cut to hell!! I saw the original version and I know there was a lot of stuff I remember missing from the DVD release. Why a sleaze cla-SICK like CREEP would be cut down for it's DVD release is a mystery to me. The best thing to do is to try to find a copy of the old VHS. It's worth the search!

This movie is so bad, so cheaply shot, so poorly acted and written that it's amazing it was ever made. Some scenes provoke howls they are so stupid, but there are far too few to bother watching this atrocious piece of garbage. If this were one-tenth as lurid and provocative as it was meant to be it would be well worth viewing. But, you can't make a movie with a budget you lifted out of your kid's piggy bank. In some of the scenes you can tell the video was shot in some low-rent neighborhood. They didn't even try to keep some of the neighbors out of the picture. It should be a crime to make movies this bad, it cheats people out some of their lives spent watching it. Well hope that's enough lines for IMDb, this flick isn't worth more than two lines. Thumbs WAY down.

All hail to the Prince of low-budget video, the Duke of twisted storytelling and the King of gore-on-a-budget! Tim Ritter's outrageous horror-fest CREEP delivers! Kathy Willets and Joel D. Wynkoop play savage killers in this sexually twisted and graphically shocking story. Patricia Paul plays a convincing role as the stressed-out cop drawn into this sick affair. CREEP is filled with some of the most innovative twists and shocking turns of events. The story flows smoothly with each passing scene, until the climactic and STUNNING finale. Skillfully written and masterfully shot, Tim Ritter continues to prove that he is one of the better young directors in the no-budget industry. CREEP is sure to be considered one of the all-time favorites at this level! ***
