    What a CreepSeason 25, Episode 2John LandisJohn Landis, a well-known director and father of past Creep Max Landis, has directed some of the most successful comedies, including Animal House, Trading Places, and Coming to America. While directing his segment for 1983’s The Twilight Zone: The Movie, a helicopter accident tragically resulted in the deaths of actor Vic Morrow and child actors Myca Dinh Le and Renee Shin-Yi Chen. In 1987, Landis was charged with involuntary manslaughter but was ultimately acquitted. In this episode, we discuss why he is a Creep.

    Andy Dick

    You probably know Andy Dick from the “The Ben Stiller Show” or “NewsRadio.” But he’s also famous for a very long history of harassing, groping, licking, and punching people, as well as whipping *it out in public. He has struggled with drug and alcohol abuse, but that’s no excuse for his behavior. What a creep.

    The True Crime Story Behind “The Natural”

    The Eddie Waitkus shooting is a notable event in baseball history. It occurred in 1949 when the popular first baseman (and WW2 hero) for the Philadelphia Phillies was shot by an obsessed fan named Ruth Steinhagen. The incident was a shocking reminder of the dangers of celebrity obsession. Also, it inspired Bernard Malamud's novel The Natural, which was later adapted into a popular film starring Robert Redford (who played a 19-year-old when he was 47 at the time!)
