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 serial killer Josef 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 overall. Its sequel was praised for being an effective sequel, and worthy of its predecessor.
