Review of Jeepers Creepers (1939) by Petros T — 14 Apr 2017
"Hold on, Central, the sky is falling". Victor Salva created an intriguing creature, invested in building tension successfully, didn't hold back on the gore and sprinkled the result with some cool lines as well.
"Jeepers Creepers" is not a modern horror classic - it has its clichés, the acting is a little shaky at times and the finale fails to outdo what came before in terms of suspense - but stays comfortably above the lot: it's fun, brisk, dark, exciting, atmospheric, memorable.
