Product Description

Despite the usual symptoms of sequelitis, Jeepers Creepers 2 delivers the goods for those who enjoyed the 2001 original--a group large enough to propel this sequel to a record-setting opening in August 2003. While establishing the flesh-eating "Creeper" as a new horror icon with frantic action and more elaborate special effects, writer-director Victor Salva follows the traditional formula, dispensing with plot almost altogether and focusing entirely on threat, menace, mayhem, and gore. That's likely to disappoint horror fans hoping for a more revealing exploration of the Creeper's origins (room for another sequel, perhaps?), and by trapping nondescript teens in a school bus attacked by the Creeper, Salva severely limits the movie's overall potential. Still, there's something to be said for straightforward shocks, and Jeepers Creepers 2 delivers enough of them to justify its profitable existence. --Jeff Shannon

Basically two things happen. There's kids on a bus and they keep trying to kill the Creeper but he won't stay dead. I was waiting for something more to happen but that's pretty much the story... The acting was decent and the movie looked good... The special effects on the Creeper were well done. It just lacked in plot enough that I couldn't get into it.

i actually commented on the sequel to this movie first,thinking i would
never bother to write a comment on this one.the sequel is actually not
bad,but this one is not so good.i found it boring and mean spirited
even for a so called horror movie.it doesn't really make a lot of sense
either.and i found it depressing as anything.plus,the ending was just
ridiculous.i know the sequel didn't necessarily make a lot of sense.but
it had other positives going for it,like excitement,and a really nifty
looking creature.anyway,i pretty much hated the original,and although
it's not the worst movie i have seen,it is pretty bad.my advice,skip
this movie and check out the sequel instead.for me,Jeepers Creepers is
a 2/5

I just had to write something about this movie because I saw the first 1 and absolutely adored it so when I heard that there was a Jeepers Creepers 2 I was so excited I had such high hopes for this sequel. I would rate this a -4 stars if I could. It was so boring and disapointing. The story revolves around a bunch of stupid teenaged football players and a couple of cheerleeders I guess (it s been many years since I ve seen it) on a bus. As they re being attacked by the creature all of a sudden there s a girl who is gifted with visions, that is so lame, she never had them before and now she magically learns the story about the monster. I mean I love the monster and all I think he s cool but this movie doesn t do him justice. It s just another movie they made to make more money. Don t rent it don t buy it if you re curious watch it on tv that s what I did. Anyway there are no words to describe how bad this movie is.

A weak, disappointing, needless sequel
I'm afraid I'm going to be rather harsh in my assessment of this extremely needless sequel. Writer/director Victor Salva obviously does not agree with one of my central tenets of... Read more

Poorly Made Sequel
I would have to say that Jeepers Creepers two was rather disappionting. First of all there are some missing elements in this one, such as there is no truck and the song Jeepers... Read more

Not as good as first, but a lot of points people miss...
Through out the first film the creature is less slimy than the second, and less human making him scarier than the second. Read more

Great DVD Weak Movie
I rented this movie with zero expectations. I didn't think I was going to like it, love it, or hate it. I came out somewhere in the middle. Read more

Use it as a prequel
This movie is pretty difficult to rate, because the value depends on how you watch it. So lets divide into two possibilities:

Scarier than the first
My roommate and I laughed through the first one. The sequel is scarier. You see more of the creeper and he has an attitude. His attitude is like Freddy Krugeur's. Read more
