Creep (2014) and Creep 2 (Brice 2017)
A different project from Duplass and Brice who take a micro project approach to horror. While the project is admirable we met it with mixed results. The sequel adds a layer of interest and potential. This was definitely enough to raise the anticipation for Creep 3. Can they pull something impressive together or will it crumble the same as The Human Centipede trilogy.
