an event in the skiing center of Vuokatti, but the party is soon interrupted when the Creeps; small but lethal, take over the event. Inspired by 80-90’s classics like Gremlins, Critters, Highlander, and American Pie. The Creeps bring in Nordic style to the subgenre. The creatures are designed by Disney- veteran Barry Atkinson (The Lion King, Heavy Metal, Pocahontas, An American Tail, The Land before time).

“We are extremely happy and excited that we get to produce The Creeps with Mäkilaakso. We have been planning a film together for a long time, and now we can finally get to work on it. Of course, having Christopher Lambert with us is a dream come true in so many ways. This is an awesome start for Kajawood and it’s international productions still to come”, producer Miika J. Norvanto states.

“We finally get to carry out this genre I love, and which I miss from my childhood. 1980-90’s nostalgia, action, comedy, and innocence. Pure unexcused entertainment”, producer Timo Puustinen tells.

“The Creeps will be a very entertaining, popcorn-flick for a large audience, and it is insanely great that Christopher, Chris, and other actors are in this fun adventure”, director-screenwriter Marko Mäkilaakso tells.
