This creature feature horror franchise began in 2001 with “Jeepers Kreepers” starring Gina Phillips & Justin Long. 2003 saw the release of its sequel with a new cast that included Ray Wise, Nicky Aycox, Eric Nenninger & Garikayi Mutambirwa. 2017 saw the release of “Jeepers Creepers 3” which canonically takes place after the events of the first film but prior to events of the second. These first 3 films were directed by Victor Salva. In 2022, a 4th film was released and directed by Timo Vuorensola. This film serves as a soft reboot of the franchise. All the films surround the same basic premise, a group of people are attacked by a monster who is attracted to fear. While the first film was based on a series of actual events, the other 3 are come across as supernatural action movies than horror. The 4th film became subject of a lawsuit after changing production companies without the permission or notifying the previous producers.
