Greg Nicotero’s Creepshow season 4 coming to Shudder, trailer & more
By Renee Hansen
Walking Dead director and SFX guru, Greg Nicotero is a master at creating gruesome special effects. This was proven time and time again in The Walking Dead series and the Shudder anthology series Creepshow, as well as numerous other projects throughout his career. AMC has recently announced that season 4 of Creepshow will air this fall.
Creepshow, the series, is a continuation of George Romero’s 1982 horror comedy movie of the same title. Nicotero serves as showrunner and executive producer for the series, which features two darkly grim horror stories per episode.
Creepshow season 4 release date
AMC has announced that season 4 of Creepshow will premiere on Shudder and AMC+, very fittingly, on Friday, October 13 at 10 p.m. ET. The season will begin with a six-episode release followed by new episodes released weekly.
Creepshow season 4 trailer
Below is the terrifying trailer for the upcoming fourth season and promises to continue to be “the most fun you’ll ever have being scared.” It begins with a fantastic jump scare and builds from there. This season looks to contain the creepy/campy vibe as always while adding in some extraterrestrial excitement.
There have been no casting announcements for this season. In the past, many Walking Dead actors have starred in the series, including Josh McDermitt, C. Thomas Howell, Cailey Fleming, Michael Rooker, Josh Mickel, Ethan Embry, and King Bach.
Shudder’s Creepshow: From Script to Scream
If you are unaware, there is a companion coffee table book, Shudder’s Creepshow: From Script to Scream. This book highlights the origins, development, special effects, interviews, behind-the-scenes images, and more. Horror legend Stephen King provides the books forward, with Kirk Hammett, lead guitarist of Metallica and horror aficionado, providing the afterword. This is a must-have for Creepshow and Greg Nicotero fans that can be purchased on AMC in standard or exclusive addition.
