He sees something move out of the corner of his eye. He feels something - something wrong. Then, right in front of his father, the boy is snatched screaming into the sky. No one can help him. The Creeper is back… Meanwhile, returning home from a championship game, a group of varsity basketball players, cheerleaders, and coaches become stranded on the infamous East 9 Highway in Poho County - only it's the cunning Creeper who has actually crippled their bus. After the adults are killed one by one, the students are left alone, trapped on the bus and forced to defend themselves against a supernatural creature who has already decided who it wants to kill - and the kids soon know who among them are targeted. As 23 horrifying days of flesh-eating come to an end, the Creeper has embarked on its final voracious feeding frenzy. As night falls, the terrified group of young athletes must fight their own fears and prejudices and come together in a seemingly hopeless struggle against a winged nightmare hellbent on stockpiling as many victims as it can on the ultimate night of its grizzly, ritual feast. United Artists, in association with Myriad Pictures, presents an American Zoetrope production of Jeepers Creepers 2. Written and directed by Victor Salva, the film stars Ray Wise and Jonathan Breck as the Creeper, in addition to a talented young cast that includes Eric Nenninger, Garikayi Mutambirwa, Nicki Aycox, Diane Delano, Billy Aaron Brown, Marieh Delfino, Thom Gossom, Jr., Lena Cardwell, Al Santos, Kasan Butcher, Tom Tarantini, Travis Schiffner, Josh Hammond, Drew Tyler Bell, Luke Edwards, and Justin Long as Darry Jenner. Produced by Tom Luse and based on characters created by Salva, Jeepers Creepers 2 was executive produced by Francis Ford Coppola, Bobby Rock, Kirk D'Amico, and Lucas Foster, with Philip Von Alvensleben as co-executive producer. The filmmakers include director of photography Don E. FauntLeRoy, production designer Peter Jamison, editor Ed Marx, and composer Bennett Salvay. [More]

... an impressive second entry, and proof perfect that Salva may become a legendary horror film director.

The nameless monster is akin to an unintentionally funny hybrid of Batman and a blowfish.

It's the kind of insanity that we enjoy watching with our friends, trying to figure out whether or not the director knew what he was doing.

Avoids many of the pitfalls of the original by setting low goals and aiming for wholly generic, monster-horror mediocrity.

Para compensar a falta de um roteiro, Victor Salva repete cada capotagem ou explosăo várias vezes, de ângulos diferentes. É como ver inúmeros replays em uma partida sem gols.

Jeepers Creepers 2 is unremittingly bad.

...just another monster flick, with most of its budget going into the Creeper's makeup.

Faults lie in not fully explaining the creature's origin or true motivations.
