My Thoughts:
I enjoyed this movie quite a bit. There is a lot of well known people in this one. I especially enjoyed Lance Henriksen's character. And even though I don't normally like him... I did like Leonardo DiCaprio in this movie. I was somewhat surprised to see Tobin Bell's name in this one though... as at the time I had no idea who he was... he didn't become familiar to me till the Saw movies. Anyway... I am glad I added this movie to my collection. I think it is a good story and everyone involved did a fine job.

Jeepers Creepers, a review by addicted2dvd

Jeepers Creepers
You can keep your doors locked. You can keep your eyes closed. But still, he'll get what he wants...and what he wants is...you. Brace yourself for "90 minutes of steadily mounting horror [that] delivers more than its share of honest chills" ('The Baltimore Sun'). From "the scariest opening sequence of any horror picture in recent memory" ('Los Angeles Times') to "one of the gutsiest endings to a film this year" ('Dallas Morning News'), 'Jeepers Creepers' is the real deal in terror!

On a desolate country highway, two homeward-bound teens (Gina Philips, 'Living Out Loud' and Justin Long, TV's "Ed") are nearly run off the road by a maniac in a beat-up truck...and later spot him shoving what appears to be a body down a sewer pipe. But when they stop to investigate, they discover that the grisly reality at the bottom of that pipe is far worse than they could have ever suspected...and that they are now the targets of an evil far more unspeakable -- and unstoppable -- than they could have ever imagined!

My Thoughts:
I know this movie is not for everyone. And I can see why. It is far from the best horror movie I have in my collection. But I am able to enjoy it. I just need to turn my mind off before watching it. I did like Gina Philips in this movie. I will have to look into what else she has done... I only have a couple other titles with her in it (Ring Around the Rosie & An ep of Sliders).
