Jeeper's Creepers & Jeepers Creepers II




I (A) was thinking about writing two separate reviews for these movies until I realized something... They are practically the same movie!  It's the same story about a monster who comes alive for a month every 23 years to eat teenagers, So I figured just reviewing them together.

The Good:  There is nothing more hilarious than watching a bunch of dumb teenagers continually make dumb decisions in a Horror movie, HAVE THEY LEARNED NOTHING??!!  I guess one of the reasons I like it is because I get to look at myself in a mirror afterwards and say to myself "I am not as stupid as that one guy. right?!".  I personally enjoyed how campy these movies are, that no matter what mood i'm in, there is no mood-lifter than a bunch of kids running from an oversized bat.....but he's also a man.....hey! BATMAN!

The Bad:  Well these movies are pretty stupid, and I can't pull any significant redeeming values from them, other than the fact that they are so dumb/fun to watch.  Other than Justin Long in the first Jeeper's Creepers movie, every other cast member is so laughably horrible that you pity their futures.  Sure there may be some good character development going on in each film, but when all is said and done... it's a Horror film, who cares?

The Ugly:  If you have a bunch of bro's getting together for a (totally straight) sleep over, then this movie will unite them in a (totally straight) awesome way.  The Ugly truth for these movies is that although they may be dumb to watch, you end up not caring about how dumb they are and start enjoying them.
