As mentioned by @Box earlier, Creepshow is set to return as a TV series. I hope it's good, because the idea of a Creepshow TV series interests me more than the no longer happening Tales from the Crypt reboot. But does anyone remember Creepshow RAW?

The Creepshow franchise went through some bad times during the 2000s. In 2006, there was the poorly received Creepshow 3, which featured zero involvement from George Romero or Stephen King. Around the same time, there was the rumor of a remake, but there hasn't been any word on that in a long time.

Then in 2009, there was Creepshow RAW, which was meant to be a web series. I say "meant" because there was a single eight-minute episode released and then it was canceled. Titled Insomnia, it's somewhat inspired by the original Creepshow's wraparound segment, except instead of Tom Atkins as the pissed off (step)father, it's Michael Madsen.

It'd be wrong of me to pretend that Insomnia is some lost gem. The best part of it is Michael Madsen. The design of the monster appears to be decent, but it's not easy to tell any specific details thanks to the camera/editing and the low quality of the only YouTube upload. Still, it's a strange relic of what might've been the first Creepshow show. If you have eight minutes to spare, it's worth one look.

I don't know why people weren't in the mood for more Creepshow. I thought that was a fine little skit. Using the same music and the weird backgrounds really sells it to me. Feels just like another skit from the first movie. Michael Madsen plays a great asshole.

When they make the new series, hopefully they'll be smart and keep it in the same vein as this one and the original. I love the mood of these.
