Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe original truck from the film is owned by a private collector in Maryland, who kept it as a relic and also provided it for the production of Jeepers Creepers 3 (2017). He also rents it for some events and conventions.
- Goofs(at around 20 mins) When Darry slides down the pipe, he is encircled by light which would have had to been shining directly down the pipe. Seconds before he went in, he was staring into total blackness.
- Crazy creditsThe Creeper's truck drives across the screen after the final credits roll -- he's still hungry and searching the back roads.
- Alternate versionsThe UK DVD release omits Darry's screams at the end to secure a 15 rating (though they are audible on the director's commentary track). However the US DVD remains uncut and Darry's screams can clearly be heard in the film.

Featured review
This is one of the worst horror films I've ever seen. The kids in this movie make every other horror movie teen look like a genius. I lost count as to how many times they just stood somewhere watching the Creeper eat someone, or watching the Creeper coming towards them. And yet every time they insisted on standing around until the last minute, when one of them would finally snap out of it and yell repeatedly at their sibling to get the hell out of there. Not even worth watching. Not a single character is believable or worth caring about. I found myself wishing the kids would just get eaten to end the movie. Their acting was terrible. The actor playing Darius had only two emotions: Confused and bewildered. And neither came off as anything other than stupid. Don't look for this kid at the Oscars anytime soon. Okay, I can't write anything else. It's a waste of my life to give this film one more minute of my time. On a scale of 1-5 stars, I'd give this a 1, and that's a gift.
