Horror Patch’s HALLOWEEN MONSTER MASH – Day 7: Jeepers Creepers!

In this holiday feature, we will showcase the best monster movies ever made during each day of the month, leading up to Halloween.

DAY 7

JEEPERS CREEPERS (2001)

After making a horrific discovery in the basement of an old abandoned church, Trish (Gina Philips) and her brother Darry (Justin Long) watch their routine road trip home from college turn into a heart-stopping race for their lives. They find themselves the chosen prey of an indestructible force that relentlessly pursues them and gives a new and chilling meaning to the old song “Jeepers Creepers.”

I love this film so much! It has one of the best new monsters of the past 20 years. Everything about this film is superior. The story is well-crafted and written. The Creeper character is unique and well thought out. The acting is off the charts by the two leads Gina Philips and Justin Long, and the direction is well…amazing.

The Creeper is a worthy addition to the Monsters Hall of Fame. The film is superbly scary throughout and has a truly grim and incredible ending.
