In 2003 the second 'Jeepers Creepers' film in the series emerged from the director Victor Salva. Having been quite a fan of the original film I was looking forward to seeing this and it certainly didn't disappoint. It's not as good as the original I feel, still however it's a decent film from Victor Salva and one that I have now watched a number of times. The plot line is predictable, the film doesn't follow on particularly well from the original, still however I find 'Jeepers Creepers 2' to be interesting and enjoyable.

The appeal of the original I feel is that it's not until quite late on the film that you see what the Creeper actually looks like. It's mysterious and you watch in great anticipation as slowly more and more is revealed about the Creepers identity. With 'Jeepers Creepers 2' we already know what the Creeper looks like and there is therefore not this element present here. Right from the word go we get to see the Creeper, the appearance is instant and this second film therefore loses much of the edge of the original. Although the mystery is all but gone here, this in turn means that we see more of the Creeper in action and there is resultantly a lot more action than there ever was with the first film. It's swing and roundabouts really, personally I much prefer the original film but still 'Jeepers Creepers 2' takes an interesting angle and provides for an excellent viewing experience. It's by no means a classic horror film, it does however provide for an excellent 104 minutes of entertainment. It's action packed and the film therefore doesn't seem very long at all, always the on screen action keeps you enthused and holds your full undivided attention.

The basketball team on the bus are not a particularly likeable bunch, you don't really feel for them and ultimately don't care too much about what happens to them. I feel that this is sometimes better than liking them with horror films sometimes though as you enjoy it more when bad things happen to them without having to feel any sort of sense of loss. We warm to no one particularly and really we're not meant to, we learn little about the characters and to us as viewers these people are really quite dispensable. The film is enjoyable but there is little emotional attachment here, the plot progression is interesting and visually 'Jeepers Creepers 2' excites; cerebrally however we feel very little. This film is not about being intellectually engaging, it provides for an enjoyable viewing experience but is certainly not designed to make you think.

'Jeepers Creepers 2' was the last released film in the series, for several years now though there have been rumours of a third emerging. I never thought there would be a third but it would seem that one may well appear. The film has an intended title of 'Jeepers Creeper 3: The Creeper Walks Among Us' and if rumours are to be believed then the film may well bring back characters from the first two films in the series. As a third film is yet to emerge I can't yet comment, what I will say however is that 'Jeepers Creepers 2' is definitely worth a viewing. It's not the best film you will ever see but certainly isn't a bad one either. The 104 minute run time of the film is absolutely perfect and I personally find this film to be greatly enjoyable even if it is hugely predictable. You may not want to watch this too many times so it might be worth renting rather than outright purchasing, still though I would definitely recommend giving 'Jeepers Creepers 2' a viewing. Expect this film to be predictable yet fun and you will be entertained, watch this with the view of it providing a scare however and you will not.
