In late March we learned that the feature-length documentary Just Desserts: The Making of Creepshow is heading our way later this year on Blu-ray via Synapse Films, but there weren’t many details available at that time.  Now we have the skinny… plus a batch of new photos to share!

You’ll be able to find the film online and in stores on July 12th (pre-order here).

From the Press Release:
For years, fans have been clamoring for the definitive word on the making of George A. Romero’s classic 1982 horror anthology CREEPSHOW, the first of his many big screen collaborations with best-selling novelist Stephen King. Now, 34 years later, Synapse Films and Red Shirt Pictures join forces to bring this terrifyingly entertaining story to life in JUST DESSERTS: THE MAKING OF CREEPSHOW, a special edition Blu-ray release documenting one of the greatest horror films ever made!

In 1982, author Stephen King and director George A. Romero collaborated on a feature-film tribute to the popular, and often controversial, EC comics of the 1950s. Told through five terrifying tales of terror, CREEPSHOW was a hit with critics and audiences alike and has become a venerated horror classic over the past three decades since its release. With an all-star cast and featuring gruesome and groundbreaking creature and make-up effects by genre legend Tom Savini, CREEPSHOW stands as a horrific and often hilarious tribute to the stories that helped influence (and corrupt) a generation of writers and filmmakers, and now the tales behind the creation of this chilling masterpiece can finally be told. 

JUST DESSERTS: THE MAKING OF CREEPSHOW is filled with rare behind-the-scenes footage, photographs, and other exciting memorabilia. Featuring over a dozen interviews, including George A. Romero, Tom Savini, Adrienne Barbeau, Ed Harris, Tom Atkins, and many others, this Special Edition Blu-ray also contains hours of additional supplemental materials. These are the terrifying stories behind the film that promised you, “The Most Fun You’ll Ever Have BEING SCARED!”
