Unearthed Films wants you to meet the Creeper in September

Last Updated on August 2, 2021

Given the success of the chat room horror movie UNFRIENDED earlier this year, it seems like a perfect time for Unearthed Films to get the social media horrors of writer/director Matthew Gunnoe’s CREEPER out on video. The distributor has announced a September 29th street date for the film’s DVD release.

CREEPER, which has the tagline “Be careful who you friend”, tells the following story:

Heather and her friends have some devilish fun on the social website, ConnectMeNet. However, their amusement has come at the expense of a lonely and medicated half-wit, Jerry Tobin. After goading him into humiliating himself on camera in various cruel acts of depravity, they post the clips online for the world to see in a video titled “Revenge on a Creeper”. This ruins Jerry’s meager life and he disappears without a trace… Fast forward a year, and the tables are now turned when Jerry reemerges, off the antipsychotic medication that clouded his thoughts and kept his demons at bay. Now the girls are forced into a nightmarish fight for their lives!

Ah, revenge for a mind-breaking prank. I always have hope for a movie with a classic slasher set-up like that.

It appears that CREEPER has been down a long road to get to this point, as its IMDb page says it had its first screening in 2012. Now it’s finally going to be seen by a wider audience, and if you’d like to be one of its viewers, the DVD can be pre-ordered on Amazon.
