Jeepers Creepers
« on: March 11, 2002, 08:37:34 PM »
Does anyone know what make the truck in "Jeepers Creepers" was?  I know it was modded, but it was completely bad ass!  Any help would be appreciated.

This movie was filmed right down the road from my home.  They had the road blocked off and the area was lit-up at night like a football field.  I really didn\'t think this movie would make it to the big screen.  I was really shocked when I saw the trailer for it and I thought It might be OK...  I was wrong.  It was retarded and SHORT!!!  I think they ran out of money and had to finish without filming the rest of the movie.

No, it was short. Check the running time HERE!!!!


That\'s MUCH shorter than what you thought.  But I guess time flies when your having fun, and the opposite effect for watching this movie.

I thought the average running time for a movie was about 2 hours.
I remember checking my watch at the end and thinking "That was short"

It doesn\'t matter what length a film is, as long as it\'s the appropriate length for the story being told.  I prefer a horror movie like this one, WITHOUT all the padding and empty scenes of lousy actors trying hopelessly to bring their two dimensional characters to life.

As an efficient little high energy horror picture, Jeepers Creepers was great.  It reminded me of the first Evil Dead film in a way.  Instead of including a huge amount of wind up at the beginning, describing who the victims are and why they are together, both films just drop their characters in the sh*t almost immediately.  After that, it\'s almost just nonstop hammering on the senses until the end.  I think it was highly effective.

Yes, I also live close to where they filmed that movie, and I climbed down that hole, and there was nothing but I giant pile of cheese......so I ate it... all of it.  ask Justlight.... he was there... it was, most definately, not an ordinary moment.
