Anybody who's ever read an old-time horror comic should feel instantly familiar with these stories. There's five tales here, each one packing its own delicious bit of twisted irony or supernatural revenge. Instead, they recreated something straight out of their childhoods.Ĭreepshow is a horror anthology - a beast one didn't see a lot after Amicus closed up house in the mid-1970s. Even Night of the Living Dead, with its shock ending, is a bit like a story from "Tales from the Crypt." So when Romero and Stephen King collided creatively for the first time, it came as little surprise that the effort would not be for a straight adaptation of one of King's novels. Martin is a concept that would fit easily into an EC comic.
Dawn of the Dead is as much a graphic novel made flesh as it is a zombie movie. Romero's comic book sensibilities have always boiled just under the surface of his work.
