I am not a harsh critic so when I give this movie a 1 out of 10 it must mean it is really that bad. Out the gate this movie just rehashes the original almost verbatim but does it like 100x worse. The moment the old man immediately puts together that the license plate says B Eating U is just a prime example of how lazy and rushed this whole movie feels.
If you have seen Wrong Turn 5 Bloodlines that is exactly what I compare this movie to. It's cheap, poorly written, and caters to the mindless with pointless off screen killings. There is no tension building in this movie, the story is paper thin and hardly progresses, the dialogue is God awful and the acting is not much better. Unlike the original two which I consider some of the best horror to ever hit the big screen, this takes all of what makes those good and completely throws them out.
Who ever wrote and produced this has no right ever making a movie again. It is so rudimentary and stale it is beyond belief. Have they never taken any classes or produced a movie before? Nobody wants to see a creature just running around killing people for no reason for an hour and a half. Especially when the creature looks atrocious compared to the original and all the deaths are off screen! Hell this makes the third look amazing in comparison. Even though that movie was quickly written with a low budget in mind just to get the franchise moving again and did not deliver on any of it's promises. It at least had a story and was worth watching.
For the love of all things mighty do not even bother watching this. I'm warning you now coming from a huge fan. It even disappointed my super low expectations. Enough of these modern horror tripes and trying to come off as edgy. I had enough of these Halloween festivals gone wrong. Every low budget horror movie that comes out these days is rinse and repeat, you can tell them apart from a mile away and this is no different.
This is a complete disgrace to the Jeepers Creeper's franchise. I honestly wish people could separate the person from their art and allow Victor Salva to come back with the proper budget so we could get the end to the trilogy we all deserve. Sadly this does not look like it will ever happen. I thought this was going to be bad but I could have never dreamt it would be anywhere near this awful. This doesn't even belong on Syfy! And the CGI at the very end? What in the world was that? I am lost for words. Stay away from this cesspool!
