Strapped-for-cash videographer Aaron (Patrick Brice) responds to an online job request that takes him to a remote house in Crestline, California. There, he meets his client, Josef (Mark Duplass), a strange man who wants Aaron to help him film a video diary for his unborn child, as he claims he is dying from an inoperable brain tumor. As the direction for the video becomes more bizarre, Aaron slowly realizes that Josef brought him out there for a very different reason.
Directed by Brice and co-written by Brice alongside Duplass, Creep is a psychological horror that uses the found footage style of filmmaking, with the story being presented through the videos that Aaron shoots. Clever, funny, and extremely tense, Creep also succeeds at creating a suffocating atmosphere and unsettling tone, bolstered by Duplass’s unnerving performance. If you enjoy Creep, be sure to check out the sequel, Creep 2.
