He sees something move out of the corner of his... Every 23rd spring, for 23 days, it gets to eat… It's day 22. Young Billy Taggart is doing his chores in a sunny cornfield in the late afternoon. 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]

...it may be the first flick ever to borrow from "Jaws," "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre" and "Monty Python and the Holy Grail"

Not consistent enough in its lore to merit much conversation, not gory enough to appall, not titillating, not scary, not exciting, a little too long. . .

The only thing frightening to come out of [this sequel] is the sprained wrist you'll receive from constantly looking at your watch, wishing it would all be over.

There's greater consistency to it, and considerably more humor, with macabre slapstick and fun-house ghoulishness that, at their best, recall early Tim Burton.

Even when the boys in the film do manage to put their clothes back on, it’s only a matter of time before the Creeper takes them off (amongst other things).

As far as diverting, popcorn, scary late-night dingers go... it delivers.

JC2 is a cheap creep that is certainly not worth the gold bullion it requires to venture out to a theater these days.
