Creeps (novel)

Creeps is a 2013 young adult novel that was written by Darren Hynes. It was first published in Canada on July 30, 2013 through RazorBill.

Synopsis

Wayne is a teenager growing up in a dysfunctional home. His father is an alcoholic and his mother keeps threatening to desert him all. He can't escape his home life in school either, as Wayne is constantly bullied by his schoolmate Pete "The Meat". One morning he's rescued by Marjorie, a teen girl dealing with her own problematic home life, and the two begin to befriend one another. However even as the two seek solace in one another, Pete has decided to take matters into his own hands and find a way to torment not only Wayne but Marjorie as well.

Reception

Quill and Quire panned Creeps overall, criticizing Hynes for "[rehashing] familiar caricatures" and that "aside from Wayne’s fear of daily menace and a subplot involving a play that almost doesn’t go on, there’s not a lot to the story."CM Magazine also heavily criticized Creeps, stating that "the writing style is not terribly problematic in itself—though the first-person unsent letters are a bit jarring and don’t always flow with the rest of the narration—however the failure of Hynes to move beyond stereotypes and flat adult characters—with the possible exception of Mr. Rollie, the drama teacher, and Mr. Ricketts, the janitor—keeps the story from moving beyond a limited exploration of a very haunted group of young people. "

Creeps (film)

Creeps is the 168th short subject starring American slapstick comedy team the Three Stooges. The trio made a total of 190 shorts for Columbia Pictures between 1934 and 1959. This short was released in 1951 and features Shemp Howard, Moe Howard and Larry Fine.

Plot

The Stooges tell their three sons (also the Stooges) about the time they had jobs as moving men assigned to the haunted Smorgasbord Castle. All goes well until a clanking suit of armor inhabited by the ghost of Sir Tom (voiced by Phil Arnold) instructs the Stooges to leave him be. Shemp, Larry and Moe all take turns trying to move Tom but he spooks the Stooges away.

Production notes

Creeps is a remake of 1949's The Ghost Talks using ample stock footage from the original film. The new footage includes the babies (also the Stooges) and a torture room scene where Moe's trousers are sliced off.

In the scene when Sir Tom is telling the Stooges his story, there is a brief shot added where the boys are smoking; in the next shot (a recycled clip), the boys are not smoking.
