Once he (John H. Shelton) was a martial arts fighter, who had only ever
lost one fight - but that experience has left him mentally scarred. These
days, he spends his time as a litter picker, still contemplating revenge,
not only on his opponent from back when, but on society at large. So
eventually, he dons the mask of the Crimson Creeper, and goes off to haunt
whoever crosses his way - and it's not long before he virtually bumps into
Baydzone (Bayden Ray Redshaw), who's soon on the verge of freaking out
from the Crimson Creeper videos he gets sent ... Basically, The
Curse of the Crimson Creeper is just a really fun no budget exercise
in horror, it's in equal parts origin story of the titular character that
John H. Shelton has used time and again over the years, and paranoia
thriller with a found footage feel to it, and what really becomes apparent
in all of this is how much Shelton actually loves genre films and
filmmaking - something that clearly translates into the enjoyability of
this short. ... and if this has at all gotten you interested,
