The Creep franchise consists of found footage psychological-horror installments, including two streaming exclusive and video on demand feature films, and a spin-off television series. Based on an original story by Patrick Brice and Mark Duplass, the movies have co-starred the pair, in addition to a supporting cast. The plot centers around a serial killer who regularly posts listings for one-time videography job assistance, to lure in his victims; after which he saves their created video in his personal vault and assumes their name as an alias.
The movies which were created with a shoe-string budget and released in collaboration with Netflix, were met with a strong critical response and viewership numbers upon their respective releases. The first installment has since been called a horror cult classic and one of the best found footage movies of all time. Its sequel was praised for being an effective sequel, and worthy of its predecessor. The television series has been mostly well-received and considered a fitting expansion of the films and the found footage genre.
