Creature Feature is a two-man rock band based out of Los Angeles, California, helmed by Curtis Rx on guitar and lead vocals and Erik X on keyboards. The band is distinguished for their Halloween and horror movie-themed songs. The band formed after a Halloween party in 2005, and grew to prominence through extensive advertising in horror magazines and, most notably, the social-networking website MySpace.


Wikipedia notes on song inspirations:

Most of the tracks on The Greatest Show Unearthed are more or less inspired by specific horror films.

  • Aim for the Head is a tribute to zombie films.
  • Buried Alive is a tribute to the works of Edgar Allan Poe.The song contains over 20 references to Poe's work and life, at approximately one per line. Works named include "A Dream Within a Dream", "The City in the Sea," "The Valley of Unrest," "Loss of Breath," "The Premature Burial," "The Oblong Box," and others.
  • A Gorey Demise is a homage to the Edward Gorey book The Gashlycrumb Tinies.
  • Look to the Skies is based on Invasion of the Body Snatchers.
  • How to Serve Man, named after the infamous Twilight Zone episode, is based on the Gris Grimly film Cannibal Flesh Riot for which it was written.
