If the reptile brain in you, that ugly little cluster of cerebral cells where all the destructive urges lie, needs a good jolt, Jeepers Creepers offers you just such a treat.

Loren King Boston Globe (Top Critic)

Unlike the recent horror films Session 9 and The Others, there's nothing remotely ambitious or imaginative in Jeepers Creepers.

The only mystery to Jeepers Creepers is why Francis Ford Coppola chose to stamp his name on this grade-Z movie as producer.

Jeepers Creepers might have a stylishly sinister look, but the goods are rudimentary.

David Edelstein Slate (Top Critic)

The plotting is a tad generic, and the film feels long at a scant 90 minutes. But the movie is good enough to put a chill into the late-summer air.

A good way to find some genuinely creepy moments in a decade where they were short in supply.

One genuinely gets the sense from the first hour of this film that Salva is exorcising some of his own demons.

One of those horror movies in which its characters do such unbelievably stupid things all the time that you literally want to shout at them.

The only thing about this movie that really made me shudder is that we are probably going to be deluged with a bunch of crappy sequels for it.

Tom Grealis RTE Interactive (Dublin, Ireland)

As the plot hemorrhages from one dire encounter to another, the cliched old psychic routine is used to explain the plot to anyone who might still care.

...Alternates between moments of sheer terror and ridiculously cheesy effects...

The story hits a wall with an abrupt, dismal ending.

This is definitely not a good movie, and it has too many major flaws within the context of the genre to be a good horror movie.

...takes an enduring monster-movie premise, starts to rework it promisingly, and then drops the ball and falls back on trite, stereotyped action until we finally stop caring.

Brennan ... turns in a nice comic turn that is well worth waiting for.

Jeepers Creepers is one of those movies that starts promisingly, then goes downhill very quickly.

packs in virtually every horror-movie paradigm from the last 30 years into a lean 90 minutes

It is stylish and atmospheric; despite some problems with motivation, its main character duo is sympathetic and credible.

It's not a very respectable horror film, but it does deliver the goods more often than not.
