Creepshow: expert The Lonesome Death of Jordy Verill 1982

From E.C. comics, Stephen King and George Romero (!), comes this tale of Jordy Verill, played by King himself, and his encounter with a very odd meteorite! While Jordy witnesses the crash landing of said "meteor," and then fantasizes about how much the college will pay him for it (a whopping $200!), he fails to notice that the extra-terretrial object is emitting a strange gas. After waking to the worst shaving nightmare ever, Jordy then discovers he's grown a green, plant like beard.... Well, things go downhill pretty fast from this moment. Jordy finds himself wanting to take a bath in the worst way....a bad idea, as the apparition in his bathroom mirror of his long dead father tries tell him! You ain't gonna get in that tub, are you? It's the water it wants, Jordy. Don't you know that? You get in that water, you, Jordy, you might as well sign you death warrant! Jordy's dead father
