New Streaming: Creepshow- 'Skeletons in the Closet'

 We're back with another Segment from Season 3 of Creepshow.  

What happens when the skeletons you're hiding are real...and someone finds out?

A man and his girlfriend run a Horror Movie Museum full of props and freaky things.

Who could have so much of this stuff?  Oh right- Greg Nicotero (who co-wrote and Directed).
His rival shows up offering to buy some of his goods, but he won't sell.

However, he knows a secret and can get what he wants...
They do something dramatic and now they need to cover it up.

Seems simple enough, right?
Will it be that easy or will the 'magic' of the Store make things more dangerous?
Will all of that Psycho foreshadowing pay off?

To find out, stream it.
A fun, creepy Episode.  It's always something when a Show like this can slip in references that even I don't get.  Yes, I don't know everything about everything- big shock.

Seriously though, the simple Plot has a nice pay-off and great atmosphere.  I really want to actually go to this place if it was real.  It's worth the price of admission.

This one is a love-letter of sorts to classic Cinema, somehow referencing The Omen, TCM, Phantasm, Psycho and Clash of the Titans (plus more) in one 20-minute segment.  Nice segment and nice, random use of POV.

Next time, I try not to get too Familiar with the 2nd segment.  Get it?  You will.
