Mark Duplass and Patrick Brice’s Creep will premiere on Netflix

Last Updated on August 5, 2021


We’ve been hearing about the horror-comedy CREEP for a long while now; the Patrick Brice-Duplass Brothers project (produced by Jason Blum) has been floating around since it premiered at the SXSW Film Festival over a year ago. While there have been big plans announced for the flick (a trilogy is in the works), we’ve been patiently awaiting its wide release… Well, this summer, we wait no longer.

It has been announced that Netflix has acquired exclusive worldwide streaming rights to the thriller and will unleash it on Tuesday, July 14th. The whole world gets to see this CREEP on that day!

The synopsis:

Aaron (Patrick Brice) is an optimistic videographer that decides to come work for Josef (Mark Duplass) after answering his ad on Craigslist. All Aaron has to do is record Josef throughout the day and remain discreet about the entire setup. Josef tells Aaron that he’ll be recording a series of videos for his unborn son, as he’s suffering from a terminal illness and will never be able to see him grow up. While Josef seems strange, the money is too good for Aaron to pass up and he agrees to the task. However as the day progresses Josef becomes increasingly strange and Aaron finds it difficult to tell whether or not some of the things Josef is saying or doing are truly jokes or actually a sign of true danger and mental instability.
