Creepshow 2 is a 1987 horror anthology film directed by Michael Gornick (who was George A. Romero's cinematographer on the original Creepshow). The screenplay for Creepshow 2 was penned by George A. Romero (director of the original film), once again based upon stories by Stephen King. It is, of course, the follow-up to Creepshow, featuring three more "Jolting Tales of Horror": Old Chief Wood'nHead, The Raft, and The Hitch-Hiker. Creepshow 2 was followed by an unofficial (that is, no involvement from Stephen King or George Romero) sequel in 2007, titled "Creepshow III". // May 9 - Actor Tom Cruise marries actress Mimi Rogers. ... “Horror Movie” redirects here. ...
