I can't believe I'm giving this a positive review. It's slow moving, bizarre, and in some cases I was laughing more than I was scared. Yet when the film ended it had a weird hold on me.

I'm probably late to the "Creep" party, but I'm damn glad I showed up. Stream-service horror flicks aren't usually highly regarded, considering they're now the straight-to-video crop. "Creep" should have been a wide-release in my opinion.I'm probably late to the "Creep" party, but I'm damn glad I showed up. Stream-service horror flicks aren't usually highly regarded, considering they're now the straight-to-video crop. "Creep" should have been a wide-release in my opinion. It's a small movie (literally: there are two main players here, and essentially one location) but it manages to seep into you slowly and effectively. For people who are mainly familiar with Mark Duplass in his comedy outings, be prepared to be completely unsettled by his performance here. Found-footage films may be growing tired, but this little gem had me on edge.… Expand

A creepy movie about a creep who is creepy. A+ for title accuracy. The movie itself is very straightforward and intentionally uncomfortable, good stuff! The only downside is the rather dull point of view character, but honestly the movieA creepy movie about a creep who is creepy. A+ for title accuracy.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I think this movie is really good. Peachfuzz is a good add because some people would think that the mask is creepy. And when he kills Aaron it was meaningful the way that he explained why he didn't look back when he was sitting on the bench. I thought this movie was made really well and added a lot of creepy parts. If you think about putting yourself in Aaron's place, it makes the movie a lot creepier.… Expand

Everything starts off rather weird in this bit of horror excellence. The longer it progresses the more unsettling it gets. Before you know it things get terrifying. This is full blown stalker hell. All brought to life by two fantasticEverything starts off rather weird in this bit of horror excellence. The longer it progresses the more unsettling it gets. Before you know it things get terrifying. This is full blown stalker hell. All brought to life by two fantastic performances, excellent direction, and an incredibly disturbing plot that's full of mystery.

Best of all there's a noticeable sense of humor here and it doesn't manage to get in the way of the horror. The jump scares seem used just as much for comic relief as they are for scares. The movie does rely a little too much on them for the latter unfortunately. The real scares here come from the mystery and the wonderfully creepy performance from Mark Duplass.

It's a film that's great at making you wonder just what the heck is actually going on, as well as keeping you on the edge of your seat to see what will happen next. With a genuine sense of creepiness and originality, horror fans would be bereft to miss it.

I give the movie a near-perfect score of 9.9/10.… Expand

This is another movie I just randomly found on Netflix that I decided to watch. The only thing I knew about Creep was that it had a really good rotten tomatoes rating.

The only thing I knew about Creep was that it had a really good rotten tomatoes rating. I didn't read a plot synopsis, didn't know the cast, directed or really anything about this movie. I like watching movies like this because then I don't have any expectations going in. Creep, directed by Patrick Brice and starring Mark Duplass, follows Aaron who answers a sketchy craigslist ad for a one-day job to shoot a film. His client is a little weird and talkative, but Aaron realizes this man is not who he seems. It sounds generic and overdone, but Creep executes its premise in an original and memorable way. This guy, Josef, seems like a pretty normal guy. He's not a shady, mustachioed guy who drives a windowless white van, but he's also not "too nice" or "too perfect." Josef is just the guy in line behind you at McDonald's who's way too talkative and kinda aggravating. Paired with a standout performance by Mark Duplass makes him an incredibly memorable villain. The plot itself is also wildly unpredictable, which is far too uncommon in movies like this. You never know where this movie will go or what will happen next. It has so many tricks up its sleeve that it'll keep you on the edge of your seat, anticipating the next move that the movie will make. Creep is without a doubt one of the best found footage films in a long time, and it may be one of the best horror films of the year.… Expand

as far as found footage films go this is as good as it gets. The name of the movie says it all, this film is creepy. The acting is top notch, it keeps you guessing from beginning to end and its atmosphere will have you completely absorbed.

Thought it was a unique and original horror movie that plays off Duplass's performance brilliantly. Well worth the watch and made me super hyped for the sequel.
