The villain is tied to a(n undercooked) back story that provides an explanation of sorts, but it’s less satisfying than the unraveling homosocial bonds between the doctors as they negotiate the perilous, rugged Canadian landscape.

Worth a rental if you enjoy this type of yarn.

What makes so much of The Creeper work in terms of its outright horror is the solid acting from Holbrook. An early, subtle, and menacing slasher.
