If you've seen Jeepers Creepers (1), you know it was one of Justin Long's first leading rolls.  You also know it was a pretty lame horror movie!!  So when I heard they were making a 2nd one, I threw up a little in my mouth.

Honestly, it wasn't so bad.  In the sequel they didn't have to do a lot of character interaction, they just jumped right to the scary, winged man who eats people.

The movie opens and explains that every 23 years this weirdo comes out to feed for 23 days.  Thankfully, today is day 22.  Unthankfully, he's snatched a young boy from his father's farm.

Minutes later, a bus full of cheerleaders and basketball players gets a flat tire.  When the bus driver looks at the tire, she can tell it's been tampered with.  They are stuck in the middle of know where.  I wonder if that tire has been tampered with ... huh?!?  I mean, the crazy, fugly, winged guy is hungry and it's his last night!

Thankfully, the cheerleaders and basketball players aren't a bunch of horny, smoking hot teens (so cliched!).  They are a bunch of normal kids who are getting picked off one by one by the hungry dude.  All of a sudden *horn sound!*, the farmer shows up with a home made harpoon gun!

Will he save the day?  Or is this thing unkillable?

In typical horror movie fashion, it leaves it open for a sequel.  But the ending was really good!  It don't want to give anything away, but I was really pleasantly surprised.

Also, kudos for Justin Long coming back.  He only had 2 short scenes when he appears in a dream of a cheerleader, but it was refreshing to see.
