Stephen King In Creepshow -1980

There’s a mention of Stephen King on one of io9’s article – about STD on space.

Let’s qoutes: (spelling intentional)

…there is the excellent space disease that comes in a meterorite in one of the short stories in 1980s classic movie Creepshow. Stephen King in a rare movie acting role plays a dim-witted guy in Maine who touches the meterorite and slowly turns into a giant plant creature.

I’m not sure if I’ve seen this movie.. probably not, I can’t recall.. nor read the book.. but for Stephen King to appear on a movie based on his work is not at all that surpringsing. He always do that.. There quite a number of films where he was in character and on scene for a couple of seconds.

Can you name one?

Pet Cematery for example…?
