Jeepers Creepers 3 (2017)

We're kicking off our horror marathon with Jeepers Creepers 3, which is actually the first chapter in the timeline. It came out third, but it actually takes place between the first and second films. This installment goes deeper into The Creeper's background and his iconic truck, revealing more secrets than just a creepy horn. Get ready for some psychic visions, a witchy vibe, and a group of farmers and police officers who think they can stop The Creeper. Here's a little secret: they can't. Jonathan Breck is back as the winged, bat-like killer, and we find out more about his connection to the abandoned church lair and his 23-year feeding cycle. The film also introduces a mysterious weapon that could spell his downfall. It's not perfect, but it's essential for understanding the timeline and the rural highway horror setting the franchise is known for.

Jeepers Creepers (2001)

Next up is the classic that started it all. Jeepers Creepers from 2001 is the perfect example of a 2000s horror movie—it's a slow-burn thriller that'll knock your socks off. We meet Gina Philips' Trish Jenner and Justin Long's Darry Jenner, two students driving home on a deserted highway. When they spot a mysterious figure dumping something in a pit near a remote church, they decide to investigate. Things get pretty gruesome from there. This movie sets the tone for the whole franchise with its creature feature horror, a touch of mystery, and an ever-present ominous atmosphere. The Creeper is at his scariest here, hidden in shadows and mystery. The creepy cornfield setting, the pursuing van, and the paranoid vibe make this a must-see, especially if you're new to the series. Keep an eye out for the psychic visions that'll pop up again later.

Jeepers Creepers 2 (2003)

Just a few days after the first film, we're back with Jeepers Creepers 2. This time, a high school bus is stuck on a remote road during The Creeper's feeding frenzy. The movie feels like one long, tense nightmare as the teens on the bus are hunted by the winged demon. And yeah, those wings really stand out here. Ray Wise plays Jack Taggart, a farmer looking for revenge after something tragic happens. He teams up with his son, Jack Taggart Jr., who's played by Luke Edwards. This is the most action-packed film in the series, and the claustrophobic bus setting adds a lot of intensity and suspense. We also get more hints about The Creeper's nature, including his preference for certain body parts. It's the perfect pick-me-up to get you through the mid-marathon stretch.

Jeepers Creepers: Reborn (2022)

And finally, we have Jeepers Creepers: Reborn is a reboot that's taking the franchise in a new direction. Timo Vuorensola directed it, and Screen Media Films released it. This installment introduces a fresh story and new characters. We follow Laine (Imran Adams) and Chase (Sidney Reddick) as they head to a horror festival in Louisiana, where, of course, things go sideways. Now that Jarreau Benjamin is playing The Creeper, the vibe stays the same: a remote setting, folklore horror with a dash of mystery, and that 23-year cycle we all know and love. Fans are divided on this reboot, but it's an interesting way to end your marathon. It tries to restart the story while paying homage to the original, with subtle callbacks and hints at a larger narrative.

Tips for Your Jeepers Creepers Movie Marathon

Before you start your Jeepers Creepers binge, a few essentials: watch in chronological order, not release order. This helps you follow the lore and timeline logically, especially if you want to understand where the Creeper came from and how it's connected to past victims. Hey, make sure you stock up on snacks because these movies are pretty short, so you can easily watch them all in one sitting. And check out the visual style, from the classic 2000s horror vibes in the first two movies to the digital look of Reborn. The difference is significant, and it'll definitely add an extra layer of interest to your marathon. For the real fans out there, you might want to check out the Jeepers Creepers comics or merchandise for some extra points. And remember: The Creeper returns every 23 years. Thankfully, you won't have to wait two decades to experience this thrilling franchise again.
