23 years have passed
since that the Creeper (Jonathan Breck)
has roamed the county area of Arizona.
Well its that year when the Creeper gets
to hunt and a school bus is stranded in
the middle of a hot countryside road. The
students are there all night and the
Creeper has them trapped as it plans to
eat some of the students and the students
needs to spend the entire night in order
to surive it as they are trapped inside
the bus.
One of the girls named Minxie Hayes
(Nicki Aycox) has a dream of the boy
named Darry Jenner (Justin Long) who was
killed 23 earlier by the Creeper as he
explains to her why it is there as it
wants to eat one of the students as every
23rd spring for 23 days it gets to eat
and the thing can't be killed as it will
come back 23 years later to eat again.
The trouble is, the students aren't sure
which one it wants.
The students manage to escpae the bus but
it's suddenly open prey for the Creeper
as it traps people down with it's own
daggers and other deadly devices. A
redneck farmer tries to get there on time
to rescue the students as the Creeper
killed his son.
Although this
sequel wasn't as good or creepy it did
explain why this thing did what it did as
it didn't totally explain the situation
in the first flick although the psychic
lady who dreamed of the Creeper tried to
explain the situation but it wasn't too
clear. This film was still non paced fun
and lots of great energy too. Do try it
out.
We have a bigger
cast in this one and all of them do a
great job and play well for students.
Supporting actress Nicki Aycox
does well with her emotions when she
dicovers what the creeper is after her
dream.
Ray Wise does well as the
obnoxious redneck farmer trying to rescue
the student from the Creeper and to
avenge on it for killing his son.
A young boy has a
bloodied head.
A metal pole is sliced through the
Creepers face and half of his head is
gone.
A head is bitten off a students body.
The Creeper rips off it's head to put on
the head of the head it bit off and ate.
Victor Salva
is still shows great talent with his work
in this one as you see more of the
Creeper played by Jonathan Breck.
There's great camera shots of the Creeper
flying in the air at night.
I especially loved the dream sequence
when Justin Long reprises his
role this time as a spirit explaining to Nicki
Aycox's character why the Creeper
does what it does.
The very ending of the film is a classic
too.
Bennet Salvay is
back again as he's a terrific composer
and I wouldn't choose anyone else for
this film

Two groups? What, the "will be
eaten" and the "won't be
