About this movie

Looking for work, Aaron (Patrick Brice) comes across a cryptic online ad: “$1,000 for the day. Filming service. Discretion is appreciated.” Low on cash and full of naiveté, he decides to go for it. He drives to a cabin in a remote mountain town where he meets Josef (Mark Duplass), his cinematic subject for the day. Josef is sincere and the project seems heartfelt, so Aaron begins to film. But as the day goes on, it becomes clear that Josef is not who he says, and his intentions are not at all pure. The directorial debut of Patrick Brice and produced by Jason Blum (PARANORMAL ACTIVITY, INSIDIOUS) and Mark Duplass (SAFETY NOT GUARANTEED), CREEP’s intense interplay between its two protagonists upends expectations at every turn.

Ratings and reviews

Great idea, there is only one aspect that left me scratching my head, which I won't spoil, but it isn't the naivete of the filmogropher who stays when this guy gets weirder by the minute. I've been a college kid hard up for dough before so all of that makes total sense, so I wish folks wouldn't rate it poorly for that aspect . I understand this is the first of a trilogy so explanation to come? Overall, it's entertaining and I believe both of these guys are probably on their way up in the biz.

Pretty good horror movie. I felt like the first half was OK, it was pretty creepy but also sort of annoying in the way they handled the whole found footage thing. I think the second half of the movie is definitely the best part of that movie. I was on the edge of my seat and found it really unsettling. The main character may act a bit stupid at times, but overall I felt it was a decent watch.

One of the stupidist movies I have seen. The primis that someone would stay through without getting in the car and leaving, just dumb. The writer of this screen play should get a job at McDonald's where he will be doing something worth while.
