Jeepers Creepers 2 is a 2003 American horror film written and directed by Victor Salva, produced by American Zoetrope, Capitol Films, Myriad Pictures and distributed by United Artists, a Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer division.

Summary
A couple of day’s after the events of the first movie, The Creeper is still hunting for food and targets a school bus full of helpless teenagers.

Bad Qualities

 * 1) It mostly lacks the suspense build that it’s predecessor had.
 * 2) The characters are completely unlikable and clichéd that it makes it hard to root for most of them, especially Scotty.
 * 3) Minxie is a complete rehash of Jezelle from the first movie since they both have psychic powers and are able to figure out what the Creeper wants.
 * 4) We don’t get as much action or suspense build-up as the first movie as most of it is just the main characters arguing and trying to survive while in a broken-down bus.
 * 5) It recycles some of the elements the first movie had.
 * 6) The teenage characters argue with each other SO MUCH in this movie.
 * 7) The characters drop so many F-bombs that it just gets irritating.
 * 8) An unneeded brief subplot where one of the main characters has a gay attraction for another character.
 * 9) Some scenes come off more hilariously disturbing then it does scary
 * 10) * Like the scene where one of the characters gets their head torn off by the Creeper’s wing and starts moving around hysterically which is also a basic rip-off of the decapitation scene in Friday The 13th.
 * 11) * The scene where the Creeper is picking out a particular teenage inside the bus to eat feels like something out of a cheesy comedy flick when it was meant to be a suspenseful moment.
 * 12) A pointless cameo by Justin Long who returns to play his character, Darry, from the first movie and has nothing else to do with the film then to be a part of Minxie’s dream sequence.

Good Qualities

 * 1) There are several of the teenage characters that are pretty decent and likable, like Rhonda, Bucky and D.
 * 2) Jack Taggart Sr. and his son, Jack Taggart Jr., are pretty decent characters to watch as well.
 * 3) The acting is not too bad and the actors give some great performances, like Jonathan Breck who returns to play the man-eating Creeper.
 * 4) Some of the scenes are awesome, like the scene where the Creeper chases the main characters through a large landscape or the scene where the Creeper forms a new head with Dante’s decapitated head.
 * 5) The opening scene where the Creeper disguises itself as a scarecrow, runs through a cornfield and kidnaps a farmer boy.
 * 6) The cliffhanger ending is okay and leaves it open for a sequel.
 * 7) Some of the Creeper's weaponry, especially the shurikens, are pretty cool.
 * 8) Creepy, yet good soundtrack.
