THE MOVIE<\/strong> \u2013 3.0\/5<\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\n

Plot Synopsis: <\/strong>When their bus is crippled on the side of a deserted road, a team of high school athletes discover an opponent they cannot defeat \u2013 and may not survive. Staring hungrily at them through the school bus window, the \u201cCreeper\u201d (JONATHAN BRECK) returns again and again. But when the teammates discover that it\u2019s selective about whom it attacks, it will test their ability to stick together \u2013 as the insatiable menace tries to tear them apart. Meanwhile, a father (RAY WISE) seeks revenge after the \u201cCreeper\u201d flies off with his youngest son.<\/p>\n

Quick Hit Review: <\/strong>Not quite as sharp as the first, on the whole Jeepers Creepers II<\/em><\/strong> is in some respects, on the whole anyway, better than the original if only since its more consistent from the first and second halves. There\u2019s also a lot more dark humor that I absolutely loved and it would seem Writer\/Director Victor Salva gives his Creeper villain a bit more personality this time around while the human characters are a bit more one-dimensional and with an ensemble serve well as victims for the Creeper.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

VIDEO \u2013 4.0\/5<\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

Shout Factory, through their Scream line, releases Jeepers Creepers 2 <\/em><\/strong>onto Blu-ray presented in the original 2.35 widescreen aspect ratio and given a 1080p high-definition transfer. The picture quality actually isn\u2019t half bad. In spite of primarily taking place at night, detail still is well defined, though there is some apparent noise, and colors are decent without appearing overblown or artificially elevated. There were a couple instances of dust marks and specs but nothing overly distracting.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

AUDIO \u2013 4.0\/5<\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

The disc comes with the choice of a 2.0 and 5.1 DTS-HD Master Audio track, the latter selected by default. Either option is more than adequate as they provide clear dialogue levels throughout as ambient noises and other elements make usage of the front and rear channels on the 5.1 track, though it\u2019s nothing overly robust. That said, it\u2019s more than adequate for a movie of this type and age.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

OVERALL \u2013 3.0\/5<\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

Overall, Jeepers Creepers 2<\/em><\/strong> isn\u2019t anything great and doesn\u2019t quite have the same atmosphere as the first half of the original, however on the whole it\u2019s still an entertaining horror-thriller with more tinge of humor thrown in this go around. The cast, outside of Ray Wise, aren\u2019t as memorable and a few are more than obnoxious (albeit purposefully). Still, it\u2019s worth a watch. The Blu-ray released by Shout Factory offers good bonus material while the video\/audio transfers are both solid.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n
