Jeepers Creepers III

I love the Jeeper Creeper Series but this was terrible. From drive the truck while standing on the hood, the rigged truck, the buried hand, and overall poor acting, except from the horse. I watched better acting on "In the Heat of the Night" in "Sparta Mississippi" and in my Charles Barkley voice, this movie was turrible.

i am the kind of person who will watch a good horror/thriller if it sounds interesting with a low rating, i just think 'why not give it a try, and some times they end up worth he watch. but this was NOT one of them movies. i don't know if it is because i know how great the other 2 are, so i am comparing, but either way to me this movie was not worth a watch. from the whole boring police scenes, and the shitty acting from the leads, its ridiculous !! i loved how jeepers was set around a couple, then a bus.. this... was set around boring police and a really story line! defiantly did not have the same feel to it as it did !

i am NOT a hater of new franchises being made and remakes. but this is just a let down, should of just left it were it was!!

Normally with a movie like this that took so long getting and presumably had trouble securing financing, you'd expect the problem to be a restrictive budget. But actually "JC3" would have been better-and more like the earlier films-if it were smaller scaled and less costly. There's too much action here, too many characters, all unconvincing and sometimes silly.

But what's really inexplicable is that there's way too much of the Creeper, who is no longer a seldom-seen figure of mystery but one seen WAY too often, in broad daylight, moving around like a regular guy albeit in some kind of Comic Con costume. He's not scary this way. He's just some dude in a mask. Nor is the hitherto teasingly doled-out mythology at all heightened by overly graphic FX views of him in flight, or so much dwelling on the armored truck he's got that isn't just a "death wagon," it's made out of indestructible stuff and has all kinds of lethal gizmos more appropriate to a "Phantasm" movie.

Lingering on a few characters in peril, with few and frightening glimpses of the Creeper, was clearly something that worked well for the prior installments. All that gets thrown out the window here, only lessening atmosphere and suspense. Victor Salva remains a technically proficient filmmaker (at least compared to most direct-to-video-level horror directors), and there are scattered things to like, notably giving Meg Foster a major role. Having #3 bridge the narratives of #1 and #2 was at least an unexpected decision. The movie isn't good, but at least it isn't dull (something you can't say about some of those later "Phantasms"). Getting an interview with Creeper actor Jonathan Breck, who appears a pleasant guy, provides a nice (if sole) bonus feature.

Still, this is a disappointing film that goes from generally wrong-headed to just plain ridiculous at its ill-judged climax, at which point the Creeper becomes so feeble a menace he might as well be shown dancing to "The Monster Mash." It's almost as if Salva wanted to deliberately kill off his own franchise, no matter that (of course) he claims #4 is already written.

I waited 14 years to be disappointed. The acting was terrible, the story lines were terrible, and the plot was inconsistent. Because of the time difference between when the second Creepers was filmed and the third, everybody has aged especially the sheriff. It was obviously he had on a wig and it made him look comical. Despite my disappointment I continue to be a Creepers' fan and hope that the fourth installment makes-up for the third.

Honestly, to me the movie was a complete and utter let down. I had some high expectations for this movie because the 1st and 2nd movie were so good and I thought this 3rd movie would have been way better. Although, when I went to the movies to see the movie I was really disappointed on how it turned out. There were many flaws from the movie. For example on how the video effects and cinematography turned out, this had way more green screen action then the 1st and 2nd movie those two movies took place in the open and I think this movie didn't get enough of the open area.

Also I was a little disappointed that they didn't tell us who Jeepers creepers really was. That was one of the reasons I wanted to see the movie. I do understand why the movie looked the way it did because the video effects and it was because they were on a low budget which is also why it wasn't advertised as much. So probably why a lot of people didn't know about the movie's release date or anything. Even with a lot of the things that was wrong with the movie I just hope in some way if they make another movie it comes out to be better.
