  1. Salva's view of the universe is bleak, but he communicates it with scary sincerity.
  2. As stylish as it is grisly, Jeepers Creepers has cult film written all over it, and it's not for nothing that Francis Ford Coppola has been a staunch Victor Salva mentor.
  3. 60
    It's a shame that Jeepers Creepers cops out -- as American genre movies have been doing for years -- and plays it safe with an F/X-heavy creature that no one would believe in a thousand years.

    The limp script actually has the characters spout ''Let's get outta here!'' more than once. Or maybe that's just a wise member of the audience talking.

    An instant horror classic one of the best of its kind Creepy intelligent suspenseful and scary a refreshing story as well.
  2. One of the first Horror films from the 2000's that really stood-out from the bunch, and it gave us an even better sequel in my opinion, but here's where it all began We only follow two main characters, bro/sis duo Darryl Trish but they work well together and are great characters. It's slow paced but when the action picks up it doesn't die down! A little corny here and there but for a Horror film you need to expect that, but Horror buff's have generally favoured this enjoyable flick! Expand
  3. Terrifying. Will make you jump out of your seat. You scare. You will die of fear.

    Excellent openning, then slowly crept toward the "stupid victim" sub-genre of horror. Too bad, the openning really did have promise.
