S01E10: Best Performances in Horror Movies / Comic Reading: Green Horror (1954) / Creepshow: Season One

in , ,

What are the best actor performances in horror movies? Speaking of horror, Tommy and Skippy review the first season of Shudder's Creepshow. Also: the gang reads through an old horror comic from 1954 about an evil cactus.

TIME CODES
01:35 - Best Performances in Horror Movies
21:40 - A Comic Reading: Green Horror (1954)
35:15 - Creepshow Season One

Note: The artwork for the comic above is from the original 1954 printing. Apparently the same story has been reprinted with different art and that is why some of Tommy’s descriptions of the gore may not line up exactly. The script itself is the same though.
