Jeepers Creepers

[jonathan_d]

has anyone else seen this yet
i thought the ending was quite poor

i felt that a lot of things weren't explained
there didn't seem to be a motive for the killer
why and how did he morph into the bird/bat type monster
What happened to the people down under the church?
there was a part saying that it burnt down and no-one would ever know what happened down there, i presume it was the killer who burnt it down, but again this was not explained :confused:

what did you think?
it was genuinely scary in parts but i have a mixed reaction to the actual plot of the film :rolleyes:

[utero]

films don't have to answer every question, if they did then they'd be bogged down. Every question you had was either explained or easy to figure out.

I would explain but I don't know how to use the spoiler tags!

[GK]

Jonathan, what kind of answer are you looking for to your second question ?!

[dogbert]

I thought the film was excellent, it was very well done.
the ending was excellent i thought and deffo left me looking forward to seeing the sequel if its made.
This is one film i will be adding to my DVD collection as soon as it comes out.

I also thought the film was really good. A marvelous first half hour and a great ending slightly let down by an ordinary middle section which suffers from a textbook case of "Show Me The Money" (if you know what I mean).

I though the fact that everything wasn't explained was good, although it could be seen as blatantly setting itself up for a sequel.

by the way, I've seen copies of this on ebay, are they pirates or what?

I would say that they are pirate copies...

The R1 is due for release on the 8/1/2002 and I already have my pre order in :)

[dogbert]

yeah they must be pirates cos i read on dvdblokes.co.uk that the release date for the dvd wasnt until january.

Shouldn't this be in the cinema review section. Where's there's allready a thread about this film?

[mysteriousjimmy]

look , we are now talking about the upcoming dvd release, so it is in the right section .... :)

i am defo going to buy this in jan. IMO it was an excellent film and really scary parts. I was a bit dissapointed that justin long died because he acted the part out well. Can't wait for a sequel.

Maybe we will see the girl when shes old and the demon revists her. i dunno

what do u think would be a good sequel for it?

I am getting the creeps that some people on these forums actually liked this. Around 100 people watched this when I did. 8 people walked out. At the end, the cinema erupted in jeers. Although I usually despise this behaviour, I actually didn't mind, because I have never felt so cheated by a film before.
Here are more of my thoughts which were posted in the cinema forum.
Please, please, please - don't go and see this utter garbage. My last 2 visits to the cinema have resulted in me seeing the 2 worst films of my 26 year life - this and Planet of the Apes. What I can't understand is that most critics gave it a favourable review. That's the last time I pay attention to critics or see anything with Francis Ford Coppola's name attached to it. I have never seen anyone detoriate so badly. Next he'll be directing episodes of Neighbours. Oh.. and I am a horror fan, and this makes the truly dire Scream 3 look like a masterpiece.

Definitly need a spoiler button....

[GK]

Agree with you, mate, but I have a different kind of button in mind for this continuing lack of consideration. Use the bloody spoiler button, for god's sake.

[arkham]

Does anyone else think it was like a very average episoe of the x - files?

[mythuk]

i've not seen this but a friend of mine has. apparently it's the first major hollywood film to be written by a convicted child abuser. the 'preditory' element of the film takes on a whole new meaning.

What apart from the other 3 films he wrote/directed after he was convicted, especially Powder.

[mythuk]

well i'm no expert as i say it's what i was told:D , maybe it's just the biggest hit from someone like 'that'
