(2001) ***1/2
[Sung to the tune of "The Seeker" by the Who]
The two Jenner kids
Drive across Dakota
When a crazy stranger tries
to run them off the road-a.
They call him the Creeper.
He's a scaly, beasty guy.
Here he comes. Speeding truck. Chasing after.
Where's he get those eyes?
They see a dark figure
stashing cadavers.
Derry falls down a hole and finds more
stitched together like wallpaper
They call him the Creeper.
He's a scaly, beasty guy.
Here he comes. Speeding truck. Chasing after.
Where's he get those eyes?
It's in local legends:
disappearing drivers.
And it seems to happen every 23 years.
The Creeper makes his body
from stitched up human parts.
He'll eat'cha after sniffing you out by your fears.
[awesome guitar solo]
Here he comes. Speeding truck. Chasing after.
Where's he get those eyes?
The first half of the movie's filled with promise.
But it loses its steam in act 2 and 3
Suspenseful storyline, and excellent visual style.
Not bad, not great. At least, it's worth your while.
Another song review
Got no original take.
But this format takes as long as a review.
So give me a friggin' break.
They call him the Creeper.
He's a scaly, beasty guy.
Here he comes. Speeding truck. Chasing after.
Where's he get those eyes?
Here he comes. Speeding truck. Chasing after.
Where's he get those eyes?

Nice! I can't even imagine how long that must have taken you to compose. I real liking these two movies but I haven't seen them in years. I recall Jeepers Creepers having some style, which set it apart from the regular horror movies being released at the time.
Haha, that's awesome! This is my favorite of your reviews so far.
A Who song. Of course.
No, actually, that was fun. I clicked the link and followed along. "Here he comes. Speeding truck. Chasing after" is particularly inspired.
