Inspired by the EC comic books, Stephen wrote this original screenplay anthology which includes five parts: Father’s Day, Lonesome Death of Jordy Verrill (played by King), Crate, Something to Tide You Over, and They’re Creeping Up On You. Five grisly tales from a kid’s comic book about a murdered father rising from his grave, a bizarre meteor, a vengeful husband, a mysterious crate’s occupant, and a plague of cockroaches.
