Before making a single edit, Tropedia EXPECTS our site policy and manual of style to be followed. Failure to do so may result in deletion of contributions and blocks of users who refuse to learn to do so. Our policies can be reviewed here.
All images MUST now have proper attribution, those who neglect to assign at least the "fair use" licensing to an image may have it deleted. All new pages should use the preloadable templates feature on the edit page to add the appropriate basic page markup. Pages that don't do this will be subject to deletion, with or without explanation.
All new trope pages will be made with the "Trope Workshop" found on the "Troper Tools" menu and worked on until they have at least three examples. The Trope workshop specific templates can then be removed and it will be regarded as a regular trope page after being moved to the Main namespace. THIS SHOULD BE WORKING NOW, REPORT ANY ISSUES TO Janna2000, SelfCloak or RRabbit42. DON'T MAKE PAGES MANUALLY UNLESS A TEMPLATE IS BROKEN, AND REPORT IT THAT IS THE CASE. PAGES WILL BE DELETED OTHERWISE IF THEY ARE MISSING BASIC MARKUP.
Most Annoying Sound: "BEDELIA! WHERE'S...MY...CAKE? IT'S FATHER'S DAY! I...WANT...MY...CAKE! BEDELIA, YOU BITCH, WHERE'S MY CAKE?!?" No viewer will mourn Nathan Gratham.
Which in fact lead F.K.U. to write the song "Bedelia-Back for Cake."
Narm Charm: I CAN HOLD MY BREATH FOR A LOOOOOOOOOONG TIME!!
Nightmare Retardant: The scene at the end of Something To Tide You Over is actually genuinely unnerving, with Leslie Nielsen still remaining scary even when being threatened. And then you see him buried in the sand, and...well, see the above Narm Charm quote.
The bug-eyed expression on Nielsen's face in freeze-frame (coupled with the music score going silly) doesn't help.
Sequelitis: The second movie flopped a bit when it only had three stories as opposed to five, while the 2006 unofficial threequel didn't involve King or Romero whatsoever. Rumours are flying around that there's going to be another Creepshow, but only time will tell.
The Woobie: Poor Jordy has no idea what he's gotten himself into. At least his luck finally comes in to save him from a Fate Worse Than Death.
Maybe it has something to do with the fact that the movie is intentionally goofy and therefore Narm is acceptable, but he pretty much put on a one-man show and it was really enjoyable.
