Every twenty-third spring, lasting for twenty-three days, it has to&8230; consume.

So, years ago, my sister was looking for something to watch on television and settled on Jeepers Creepers 2. I watched the portion where he is a scarecrow, or rather, masquerading as one, I suppose. Following that scene, she switched the channel because she either thought it was far too frightening for me, or she was tired of my interrogations concerning who the chap was and what the motivation behind his actions was.

Since then, I have never viewed another Jeepers Creepers film, but the other day, my pal and I were partaking in a scary movie marathon and resolved to check it out. She had never seen it to its conclusion, and I had never watched it before; ergo, we figured we would be ideal company.

Thus, the film initiates with Darry Jenner (Justin Long) and his sister Trish (Gina Phillips) journeying home for spring break. They engage in a game of deciphering the meanings on license plates while driving. Their excursion is fairly uneventful until a van appears behind them, driving erratically and terrifying them.

The vehicle eventually moves around them, and they see the license plate displaying &8220;BEATINGU&8221;. They assume that is the last they will see of him.

They continue driving when they spot an old church. And who should be there? The man who had been driving frantically earlier. They observe him discard a black bag, secured with rope, resembling a corpse, down a large pipe. They promptly decide to call the police, but are unable to because the phone is dead.

Trish: [Darry&8217;s cell phone has a low battery] The purpose of having a portable phone, you numbskull, is so that it functions when you need it.

Darry: I possess a power cable for it.

Trish: Yeah, and I own a cigarette lighter that isn&8217;t working!

Darry: G it! What did I say? My car! We should&8217;ve chosen my car!

As they proceed past, the guy notices them and pursues them, frightening them once more, and forcing them off the road.

When they manage to get their car running again, they opt to take the smart approach and drive until they can discover a phone and report what transpired.

Oh wait, no, they don&8217;t do that. They opt to journey to his location and probe it.

He is deranged; he has twice attempted to force you off the road, and you are fairly certain he just murdered someone. WHY WOULD YOU GO THERE???!!

I considered these individuals to be remarkably dimwitted. No sane person would behave in such a manner, that is, until I recognized what this was founded upon.

The director and writer insist that the film was an original idea and not based on anything, yet I believe that is a falsehood. There exists an Unsolved Mysteries episode that aired in 1990, eleven years prior to the film, which revolves around a couple who enjoy playing games with license plates and experiences a similar instance of almost being driven off the road, observing a man toss a body, and trying to &8220;investigate&8221; it. One Youtuber juxtaposed the two right after each other, and it is obvious that Jeepers Creepers draws its inspiration from this tale.

The murderer in that case turned out to be Dennis DePue, a Michigan resident, who murdered his wife when she expressed a desire to leave him.

Anyways, so the two are stupidly surveying the area when Darry conceives the bright notion that he will descend into the pipe and attempt to determine if anyone is in there requiring assistance, while Trish holds his feet. All I can convey is, bad idea.

Trish:[Darry wishes to descend in the pipe leading to the Creeper&8217;s House of Pain] You are familiar with the portion in scary films where someone does something extremely foolish, and everyone despises them for it? This is it.

Yes, you all should never have ventured there, but instead, contacted the police.

So, of course, Darry descends, when the pair are caught off guard by some rats.

When he goes down into this abyss, he discovers all kinds of horrors. Corpses missing parts, one that have been cut open and re-sewn. Some have been stitched together. Truly creepy and repulsive. And all the bodies are attached to the walls, much like some bizarre spider web/wall/cave contraption.

Trish waits for him on top, not even checking to see if the PERSON IS RETURNING!!! Seriously, what is wrong with you?

Eventually, Darry ascends, yet they never clarify how he exited. He is severely traumatized, particularly after he beheld a dead girl from their hometown&8217;s body.

They drive to the nearest phone to acquire gas. There, they receive a call on the payphone from Jezelle Gay Hartman, the local psychic.

She is cognizant of them and cautions them to flee. The creeper will be after them. They believe it is a prank, hang up, and contact the police.

When the police arrive, they don&8217;t truly believe Darry, as he sounds deranged.

The car license was registered years ago and is no longer valid. Some of the statements he utters, the individuals, have been absent for over twenty years. If they had perished that long ago, how was the corpse still replete with skin? It doesn&8217;t make a great deal of sense, but they opt to follow the two and proceed to the church.

This next scene, I thought, was executed exceptionally well. I relished how they conduct all the action with the Creeper in the background, through the back window. And observe the sign placement when the Creeper devours the policeman.

After that, they endeavor to stop someplace for a phone and end up at a cat lady&8217;s residence. She is rather awesome, as she grabs her shotgun and initiates firing at the Creeper, not allowing him into her home. However, he kills her, and unveils his appearance. And it is pretty disgusting. He&8217;s like a bat-person hybrid, and even possesses wings.

Trish strikes the Creeper with her vehicle and then runs it over five times. You go, girl! You persist in doing that; ensure that creature is severely injured or deceased.

[following running over the Creeper]

Darry: Is he dead?

Trish: They never are.

They go to the police precinct and attempt to report what has happened, but the cops don&8217;t truly accept their account. There, they meet the psychic Jezelle, who informs them the Creeper is after them. Every twenty-three years, lasting for twenty-three days, he hunts humans; taking those he can, who have organs he can consume, which will become a part of his body. He detects something in Darry and Trish, although Jezelle isn&8217;t certain which one he is pursuing.

The Creeper is wounded, and his body is broken in certain areas. He cuts off the power at the police headquarters and preys on the prisoners to heal himself. The police attempt to stop him, but are unable to.

In the meantime, Jezelle has cautioned the two that one will encounter a terrible demise. She conveys they must escape and remains behind to attempt to fight the creeper. The creeper has no desire for her and casts her aside, pursuing the brother and sister.

He goes after the two and seizes Darry. Trish endeavors to change his mind and implores him to take her instead, but he looks at her and departs with Darry.

The police inspect the abandoned church and discover everything precisely as Darry stated; but no Creeper and no Darry. He has discovered a new lair and has taken Darry&8217;s eyes.

I thought the film was passable. I didn&8217;t think it was that exceptional, and there was a lot of stuff left unexplained; yet, I suppose I&8217;m in the minority, as it was a massive hit in theaters and for Long&8217;s career, had a sequel that earned even more revenue, and will be getting a threequel next year.
