>.The actors are good,the monster
is cool,it's well done and the hole movie ROCKS.
The movie is about a brother (Longand)and sister (Philips) return home during college break.Something happens on the road... something horrible and scary.They discover something in the basement of a church
which leads to them being pursued by a "nightmare cloaked in rags." "After making a horrific discovery in the basement of
an old abandoned church,Trish (Gina Philips) and her
brother Darry (Justin Long)watch their routine road trip
home from college turn into a heart stopping race for their lives. They find themselves the chosen prey of an
indestructible force that relentlessly pursues them and
gives a new and chilling meaning to the old song
JEEPERS CREEPERS." But this is not all there's more or this GOOD HORROR MOVIE.(...).OK!everybody that says they knowe what a good horror
movie is and they say that Jeepers Creepers is weak and bad,
they don't knowe anything about the hystory of horror movies.
So,i hope you rent and buy it,you WON'T REGRET IT.(...)

Summary: Weepers Sleepers
Review: The pain is almost palpable...I'm referring, of course, to storyline, not the acting of "pain" in this film.
I was sort of settling myself in the mood of watching a good horror film with my fiancee, after having told her that what I heard; it sounded good...and squirmed with embarrassment as the film unfolded.
Please read no further if you HAVEN'T seen the film. Suffice it to say that you really should save yourself the agony if you haven't.
The film could easily have ended if a parent had driven the car.

Brother: Did not!
Sister: Did too!
Brother: Did not!
Sister: Did too!
(divine intervention from parent): You kids either shut up or I'm going to turn this car around!!
Other problems with this movie:
1. Our demonic creature, invincible--even invulnerable--and scary, can fly...yes, FLY...yet feels compelled to drive (yes, DRIVE) around incognito in a truck stolen from the DUEL (nod to a good film by Spielberg) studio lot in a disguise that would have made DARKMAN say, "Oh, please."
2. Is this creature scary?
*Yes!*
After you?
*Oh, yes, please someone stop it!*
Is it eating a victim?
*Why, yes it is...let's watch, sis, whaddya say?*
Most people run when they have a chance, but not our "static" duo...they're going to watch every gruesome moment as our hero...um...demon begins to eat someone's head.
3. The scarecrow scene. Was there a point? Did the demon really feel compelled to use a ruse that was devised more to scare the audience then to serve any meaningful purpose within the story's context? Also, what was up with the CATS???? The movie was creepy enough without some deranged woman who attempts to be creepy, but is just downright eccentric and in need of better lighting for her house. Advice: use Yellow Pages.
4. Victims. Victims galore. Over 500 and counting in a deserted area. Did anyone ever think of looking? Even if they were all travelers, you think that the dragnet of law enforcement would sit and ponder, "You know, those darned kids took the same route as the other 498 other missing cases in this darned area. Maybe we should ask that weird fellow at the abandoned building over yonder...seems kinda strange that there is a truck parked in front of it. *spitting and bell sound*"
5. Jeepers Creepers...where did you get those eyes...was this really meant to shock us at the end? Oh, the demon took the little fellow's eyes...what a surprise.
6. The CAR. Oh, that hurt the most. I could almost hear the director saying, "Hey, Bob. This scene needs some tension. Whaddya think?" Bob: "Oh, I've got it!! How about making the car difficult to start?!? We haven't done that before!!" (repeat 6 times -- but when it's not necessary, make sure the car starts just fine like when they decide to run over the demon). It was the first time that I can recall actually moaning out loud in a film every time I heard the engine grind.
With some rework and common sense, this story could have worked beautifully. It's also nice to see a horror story that serves to perpetuate itself by not making us wonder if the demon died, but to let the demon survive. But the arguing between the two main characters who somehow manage to develop an undying bond near the film's end, a pointless psychic, a creature that obviously has no need for disguise if it can survive being run over by a car several times, law enforcement that practices "let's stay in a huddle so one grenade could take us out" tactics, and so on, was enough to make me say, "What was that? And did you get the license plate number?"

Summary: I've coughed up scarier things!!!!!
Review: I cannot believe anyone could be scared by this predictable tosh!
I was "lucky" enough to get in for free but I was expecting an entertaining ride - how wrong I was.
The characters are so incredibly stupid you end up hoping they die.
The "shock" ending is obvious a mile off! ..and a let down at that!
As to the people who thought it was scary - How did you make it out of your front door without being scared of your shadow?

Summary: Just don't be too critical
Review: I dunno, I liked this movie alot, It was very stylish, and I loved how they linked the Creep with that song, I thought it was really, really scary, You just have to imagine yourself in their shoes.The ending was, hmmm , well I guess you have to tell the audience what their up against. I thought it was disturbing and horrific. There was no happy ending. I think it made it more realistic though. But anyways this was a great film, The music is Excellent!

Summary: Horrible
Review: I have to admit, I loved the first 15-20 minutes. It really seemed promising but COME ON. The ending is absolutely terrible, and the demon? Whoever made this movie needs to go back to film school. I am angered because movies like these make up to 40 million, and movies that are actually ORIGINAL, such as fight club do about 30 or less.
I honestly despise the critics who gave this movie anything over 1 star.
...
Rent, Mangler, IT, Session 9 or something along those movies, skip this one, you will be dissapointed.

Summary: What was that?!
Review: I was actually looking forward to seeing this film, as I thought the trailers looked good and the radio advertisements really sounded quite creepy. However, by the time the film had finished, I found myself sat there looking at my companion mouthing the words "what the hell was that?!" I couldn't believe it finished where it did, and it seemed like an incomplete film that hadn't really got anywhere.
The actors were ok but I think it was the storyline that let the film down. I could think of half a dozen better endings than that and realised that the overall reaction of the rest of the audience was confusion aswell. It appears that the ideas just seemed to have run out because it stops too abruptly and doesn't supply the audience with a convincing conclusion. Then again, reality doesn't seem to be a big concern of the film-makers.
Granted, the purpose of many films is to entertain the audience and provide them with a situation to 'lose' themselves in for a few hours, but a bit of credibility goes a long way in helping a film be entertaining.
A few scenes did make me jump and some I couldn't even watch, but loads of films make me do this; it is only the really good ones that get me interested and leave me thinking. Sadly, Jeepers Creepers didn't do this for me and as much as I'd like to give this film a good rating, it only gets a weak 2.

Summary: Better ending PLEASE
Review: Come on. The movie was great and the plot was excellent but the ending (...) blew. There was no ending. The company will make a lot of mone off this movie becasue they have to have a sequal so everyone who saw it the first time will crawl back to the theatre wanting to know what happen next. Other than that the movie was spectacular.

Summary: Jeepers Creepers am I glad I didnt pay!
Review: I've grown up watching alot of horror films, so I'm used to the horror cliches:idiot teenagers,non-cooperative vehicles,useless side characters there for body count only ,just to name a few. With this film I found myself wanting the monster to kill the "heroes" within minutes.The "heroes" are so annoying that I, along with the theatre staff I was watching it with, wanted to kill them myself.Actually,by the end of the film we wanted to kill not only the director, but ourselves.I laugh at all the reviewers that compare this to the Texas Chainsaw Massacre. That film has more going for it than a series of Jeepers Creepers films could ever garner. This has to be the only film I've ever watched that gave no background on the creature. Some would find that a little detail that would help a story along. Guess that wasn't necessary here.I did like the decapitation scene. Thats about it.Other than that, this film just stinks.If I could, I'd bribe the director to not make a sequel.If he does, please send it directly to video.Needless to say, I'm still waiting for a quality horror film to come to theatres..........waiting.
