Jeepers Creepers

Starring: Gina Philips, Justin Long, Patricia Belcher, and Eileen Brennan

Directed by: Victor Salva

Synopsis: A young brother and sister on their way home from college see a man dumping bodies down a big pipe. They go back to the pipe to see if anyone is still alive and they unleash a horrible and un-relentlessly pursuing creature. 

My thoughts: This movie gets an A+ for originality and creepiness factor. It was on its way to getting a score of 10 until it fell apart about two-thirds of the way. It was then it became a little clichéd, and it left waaaaay too many loose ends. It sets up questions and mysteries and then doesn't deliver. Its almost like they wanted to set up for a sequel, but it isn't really clear one way or the other.

The creature is pretty sweet I must add, however. Its sort of like a cross between the Djinn from Wishmaster and the Predator with wings.

Score: 6 out of 10
