Creepshow is a great collection of short spooky stories told in a
Tales From The Crypt style. Though many of the Stephen King
written/George Romero directed segments are great, one of the more
terrifying is "The Crate". In a grisly take on pandora's box, a
mysterious crate is found in the basement lab of a college from an
old expedition. One by one various characters are exposed to the
contents of the crate both accidentally and intentionally. The
payoff of what's inside does not disappoint.
