Creepshow Drinkalong!

by sj

It’s finally here!  It feels like we’ve been waiting for this drinkalong for…oh, I don’t know – like, a month or something.

I’m still hoping this will mostly be a Free Drink (meaning DRINK WHEN YOU WANT) but I’ve made a few rules that you can follow (if you like) that should suffice.

Just so we’re clear, you all understand what I mean by “Murdery Ashtray,” right?  The ashtray that’s used as a murder weapon in the first segment appears throughout each of the following segments.  So, it’s like an easter egg hunt.  Even if you don’t choose to follow that rule, you can still drink when little Joe Hill shows up in the intro, and when King is overcome by meteor shit.

Here are the links you need:

  • Tweet Chat room (I decided to go with #groupwatch as our permanent hashtag, all the others I could think of are already in use.)
  • Countdown timer
  • If you’re watching on your computer, here’s a link to the streaming version of Creepshow on Netflix.  If you’re watching on your tv with a streaming device or have the DVD, well – you don’t need my help, do you?

I am THE MOST EXCITED to watch this with you guys!  It should be a great time.  I’ve missed our weekly drinkalongs.

For November, I was thinking maybe Rat Race or Saving Silverman (mostly because I know I could make a drinking game out of either of those, easy peasy), but nothing is set in stone, obviously – what do you guys want to watch next month?

See you at 10:15 EDT!

  1. Hooray! Looking forward to Creepshow.

    I haven’t seen Rat Race or Saving Silverman, so no opinion. Or rather, I am capable of being a snarky peanut gallery member for any movie.

  2. If the drinking game was “Every time someone says a line you think is great, drink” I’d be dead before the halfway point. On the plus side, it being Creepshow, I’d almost certainly come back to life.

    • I almost had something with quotable lines, but then realized I couldn’t hang for more than 20 minutes with that one. So! FREE DRINK! If you want to drink every time you giggle like a maniac, you go right ahead!

  3. You guys have so much fun it makes me want to start drinking again… but that wouldn’t be good fer anybody…

  4. Yay! Can’t wait :) What are you fine folks drinking tonight? I need to hit the liquor store, it’s rather dry here right now.

  5. I’m going to throw my vote in for Rat Race next time. Rowan Atkinson is so awesome that I named my daughter after him.

  6. I feel stupid. I didn’t see the tagline “the most fun you’ll have being scared” until this morning. I just wasn’t sure if the movie was like Evil Dead (trying to be scary but being ridiculous) or like Army of Darkness (giving up on the scary and trying to be funny).

    • I was so worried that you’d left because it was too scary (but you like scary movies, I thought?) and not just because it was time for bed.

      Don’t worry – we’re going all comedy next time and Kate is trying to convince me to do the Harry Potter movies starting in December.

  7. Sometimes I don’t like scary movies because I think I have jumping Frenchmen of Maine and get startled really easily. Sometimes it’s funny. No, I left because I’m lame and go to bed early, not because I’m lame and don’t like scary movies.

  8. So glad I joined this as my first drinkalong! Maybe next time I’ll have fixed the Wii-Netflix connection, so I can actually participate more in the chat ^_^;

    Oooh, sometime can we do a Labyrinth drinkalong? I can totally suggest a bunch of when-to-drink moments! Like: every time someone mispronounces “Hoggle.” Or every time you see a phallic object (not including…well, y’know…because that should get its own “drink” moment ;) ) Every time Sarah says “Not fair!” Every Bowie costume change! Random black chickens!!

    I’ll stop now.

Comments make us happy. Leave lots of comments. Just don't be a snapebag or you'll face the wrath of dodisharkicorn and your comment will be deleted. Or we'll make fun of you. Or both. Probably both.
