Jeepers Creepers II

MPAA Rating: R

Entertainment: +1

Content: -3

Young Billy Taggart (Shaun Flemming) is in the cornfield putting the scarecrows on their perches when he sees something move. Right in front of his brother (Luke Edwards) and his father (Ray Wise), he is snatched up by a winged creature. The Creeper (Jonathan Breck) is back. Then a flat tire leaves a bus of basketball players, cheerleaders and coaches stranded on the infamous Highway 9. The Creeper begins to pick off victims one by one. The scared teens, stranded on the bus with nightfall upon them, must put away their differences and join forces to fight this demonic creature who is determined to make them part of his feeding frenzy.

Aside from being boring and tiresome, this film is full of bad language, gore and an ugly creature who just isnt that scary. Due to many negative elements, Preview cannot recommend the film. The language is particularly offensive with the f-word used beyond number along with other objectionable language. The violence in the movie is continual as the Creeper kills his victims. There is nothing good about this movie, except perhaps the special effects. Jeepers, this film isnt worth the money it will cost you to see it. Even at matinee prices!
