Less time, so a quicker Review.
Let's check out the first part of the 2nd Episode of...
He learns that 'all Writers' had a lucky charm (Lovecraft a token, Matheson a cigar) and he is allowed to borrow the one used by his idol- Stephen Bachman.
This is Creepshow, so there's a catch.
It allows him to write constantly...but always constantly.
He also seems to lose control of himself...but is it worth it?
Surely there's not a horrifying secret behind this item.
Surely not.
Yeah, you know that there is.
How it all plays out, however, you'll have to watch and see...
A really fun and crazy one.
Sidenote: I was going crazy (like the Lead) while trying to figure out where I knew the Actor from. You'll find out tomorrow.
I like the idea and the execution. It works nicely as a realistic thing at first- people believe in totems and superstitions- and then just gets pretty crazy.
It feels as real as, well, a Story like this can feel.
Hopefully you can figure out the joke with the Author's name.
This is a great example of how well something can work as a Creepshow Segment. Stretched to full length, it wouldn't be nearly as good. In here, it works.
Listen, Fictional Author, if you do need some advice, I know a guy who can help. He's out at a Hotel...
A fun one that was just horrifying enough to be scary, but still funny. I feel for you, man.
