"How do you like those peepers b*tch?!"
Jeepers Creepers Reborn is the latest unheard of entry in the Jeepers Creepers series. Reborn plays more as a remake in a way rather than a sequel to the first three films. It's not necessarily a remake only because it mentions the existence of the films in this film so it basically treats itself as the real deal. Let's put it this way, it's the furthest thing from ever being the real deal. If you thought Jeepers Creepers 3 was bad and didn't think it could sink any lower, somehow this movie does that. This movie is pure trash on every single level imaginable. The cgi is so bad that you would think they just started post production one day before the films release. It's honestly astonishing how awful the cgi is. There's literally a scene the cgi doesn't render and you could literally see the green screen as the car door opens. If the creeper has ever frightened you in any of the first three films then unfortunately get ready to laugh at this one because he's a sniffing old weak b*tch in this outing. I'm seriously baffled at how awful this film was. The only reason it exists is because the writer/director of the first three films did some awful things we don't need to speak of and so they just flat out canceled that storyline and thought this would be an acceptable replacement. The acting is terrible, the plot is Hell Fest meets the Creeper, and somehow the cgi looked worse than it did in the 90s/early 2000s. Normally I'd say stay far away from this, but I also want you all to experience just how bad the Jeepers Creepers movies have gotten. I get movies like Jason X are laughably bad, but this one actually tries to be good which is sad. None of the kills were even good and I'm assuming that's because it was made $25.

Was pretty hyped to go for a horror movie after a while. To my surprise, this movie made me laugh more than it scared me. The plot was bad, the acting was horrible, the background seemed so fake, the dialogue was something a five year old would come up with, and the creeper looked like an expired cow boy. The movie was an hour and a half long but it felt like 4 hours. It was bad. So bad. Kept waiting for it to get better but nope. Definitely not worth the watch. I saw five people yawn throughout the movie and i even laughed a couple of times at how stupid the dialogue was.
The actors do have potential, it was just the script that sucked.

I'm still trying to fathom how someone made this movie, watched it, edited it and actually thought it was ok to release..... Just horrible. I dont understand what I just watched. It's like you get this huge feeling of - this cant be real -while your in the theater watching this absolutely horrible movie that should and could be amazing in the year we are living in. All the older movies are all way better, hands down, then this one. It's gotta be one of the worst movies ever made. People were getting up and walking out in the middle of it. I don't know why I stayed after the first 30 minutes because from that point on it was without a doubt going to be really really bad.
First thing that was a huge let down was the acting. It seemed like they just put a sign up on the side of the road that said "Actors Wanted" and took whoever said they wanted the job.

Jeepers Creepers 4 makes Jeepers Creepers 3 look like Jeepers Creepers. I would rather the Creeper eat my eyes and brain than watch this "sequel" again. Jeepers Creepers: Reborn is easily the worst movie I have ever seen in the theater, as well as one of the worst things I have ever seen in my life... and I once saw a homeless man cough up blood and die while defecating on a sidewalk. And at least that was scary. The only horrific element of JC4 is the abundance of revolting CGI, which would take one out of the story assuming there was any semblance of plot to be found. Alas, the glaring lack of budget is still outshined by the embarrassing lack of imagination. Also, there is no evidence to suggest that anyone involved in the making of this horror hound, as in dog, has so much as seen the trailers for the other three installments, let alone the films themselves. Talk about DOA. They should have titled this one "Jeepers Creepers: Stillborn."

This was almost the worst horror movie I've ever seen.
People were actually walking out of the cinema half way through.
Don't waste your money on this, go to a stamp collection show instead.
I can't believe they made this movie at all and tried to reboot Jeepers creepers.
The acting wasn't very good, the story was just stupid, it was an absolute discrace to the other 3 movies and the guy who played the creeper needs to go get another career, because he was terrible.
The whole movie was a total let down from start to finish.
I really can't understand why they tried to reboot Jeepers creepers with this waste of time.
Any fan of the other 3 movies would be very disappointed I'm sure.

This is one of the worst film I've seen from a successful horror franchise ever. I was in shock with how atrocious the acting, directing, effects, and story was. The story goes in some baffling directions, it's like the writers had never seen a creeper film in their lives. I literally wanted the Creeper to reach through the screen and rip my eyes out to keep me from watching this eye sore. The green screen is so horribly distracting and just takes you out of it.
AND THE KILLS!!! The kills are even worse. How can you mess that up?! Since when does the Creeper use a bear trap? In a house?! Please just put this franchise out of its misery. No competent director will touch this project with a 100 ft pole.

What in the hell??? Sheesh! This film is one of the worst films of 2022!! Why oh why did you make another Jeepers Creepers film if you didn't even come up with a better idea before starting this film?! Didn't you know how excellent the first 2 parts of Jeepers Creepers were? Come on!
If the editing was better, It would have been a lot easier to get immersed in the story. But it was so obvious that it looked unreal and kind of just funny!
The acting was so bad! The creeper looked funny. The camera they used, seemed like the ones used in reality shows.
This is not the type of movie I am going to sit on and watch enjoyably! This is a waste of my time! I'm super fan of Jeepers Creepers but not this one! Not the Reborn!

So much better than the third, it's creepy and scary. I don't understand why some people don't like it, but for me, overall it's still fun and interesting.
At first the movie looked uncomfortable. But over time, the movie began to be fun and exciting.
I just want to give you an open mind. Remove all prejudice and go see this movie.
The CGI scene is better than the third, the script is fine, the acting is ok.
I watched this movie till the end. And I like it , This movie was much better than I had expected.
If you don't expect it, you won't be disappointed. Excited to wait for the next installment.

There are enough reviews already, but I'm going to vent along with yall because the original was so well done and so smart, and it's completely ruined by this one-- so poorly done and so NOT smart.
I'm not going to bother checking, but it seemed obvious that this wasn't the original writer or director, and neither understood what made the first Jeepers movies great: namely, once you've accepted the premise and suspended your disbelief, the actions of the characters have to make sense and be believable. In Reborn they're WAY off, with too many mistakes to mention that make it more and more frustrating, as the whole time I'm thinking, "Why, why, WHY?"
Combined with terrible dialog, silly plot premises and sillier assumptions by the characters, this was a real disappointment and probably the end of this movie series' legacy. In fact, if you loved the first one, you might consider skipping this one because you WILL hate it.

This is honestly the worst movie I've ever seen. Terrible cgi for things that don't even need cgi!!! Who approved this and watched it before it was released and thought it looked ok. Confusing plot, horrible acting and dialog. I don't know why they would ruin the jeepers creepers franchise by releasing this painful to watch movie..spent more time laughing at the movie then I was scared. I myself whose had no film experience or ever owned a camera could've written and filmed a better movie. I honestly have never wanted to leave a theater before and save myself from the pain of watching a movie. This movie should've never been never released. Whoever directed this movie should be handcuffed and locked up for life it should be illegal to make something this bad...shame on everyone involved in this film.

Whatever you do, do not waste your money on this low budget, terrible acting, poor script movie. This film was a train wreck the minute it started. I couldn't even begin to list everything wrong with it or this review would turn into a novel. Multiple people walked out within the first 20 minutes. Than a few more followed. Why did I stay you ask?! Because I really wanted to give it a chance. It was so terrible I had to see if it could get any worse and it unfortunately did.
The acting was embarrassingly bad. The director has completely butchered the creeper we all know and love. I definitely do not recommend this movie at ALL. Stay as far away as you possibly can. Listen to the reviews people!!

The trailer looks a bit cheesy (which isn't always a bad thing) and made me kind of excited for this one, unfortunately the actual movie is a lot worse:
There are only 3 (4 if you count a grassy area) "proper" sets that still look fake (opaque windows with lights behind them), the rest is done through green screens. Usually I don't mind green screen work but in "Jeepers Creepers: Reborn" the fake environments look incredibly bad and it's easily noticable that the characters aren't actually walking on real grass or closing real doors.
The special effects also look terrible, almost worse than in "Jeepers Creepers 1", which was released in 2001.
The script and story are just as bad, cheesy (not in a good way) and don't make sense in places. I can't and don't want to (fully) blame the actors because at least the main couple looked like they did the best with the script and direction they were given.
The only positive thing would the decent make-up and prosthetics used for the creeper if there wasn't real, human skin showing through, like in the "reborn" scene.
And yet there's more to criticize: Apparently the creeper isn't able to count, which you'd think was required for an eternal demon that returns every 23 years. This movie just leaves me wondering why he was "reborn" two years early (2001+23=2024, not 2022). I would have really prefered for the creators to take the two additional years to look for proper locations to film at and practice a bit of CGI work to make the movie look less like a low budget student money-grab and more like the sequel/reboot it wants to be but in this state I'm not sure how it even managed to get into theaters.
I've never left a movie theater early but the only thing that kept me in my seat with "Jeepers Creepers: Reborn" was the fact that I paid almost $10 for the ticket and there's currently no refund policy at my local cinema.
Unless you're into cheesy, bad B-movies, do yourself a favor and rather rewatch the first one.

My best friend and I went to watch the movie and let me put it this way. If you are a big Jeepers Creepers fan like me unfortunately you will be disappointed once again. I had some what high hopes for this movie. This makes Jeepers Creepers 3 a good movie for how bad Reborn is. The producer for Reborn needs to stay away from any horror films and stick to comedy. This movie does not give any fear or chills like the first 2 films. There's maybe like 2 jump scares but that's about it. This is definitely the last Jeepers Creepers film that's going to be on the big screen and I'll put money on it. If you want to watch the movie for yourself I'd advise you to not waste your money especially if you like to buy food at the theaters and wait until it streams online. One more thing.. Nobody Can Replace Jonathan Breck as the Creeper and that's that. Thank you Jonathan for your hard work and excellent effort for the first 2 films.
Really, really terrible. I don't understand how you stuff up a movie so badly. The acting is bad but that's not even the worst part. The CGI is an absolute joke, the storyline is boring and the characters are just annoying. This movie did the Creeper dirty by making him a lame and laughable character. This is yet another movie relying on special effects, however, it takes away from the mystery of the original Creeper. It's like the writer never watched any of the others and just winged it. The storyline is just so poorly executed and the script will make you either laugh or cringe. Do not waste your time watching this movie. You will be disappointed. I am astounded it made it to the cinema and I genuinely hope there are no more if this is the standard. If you thought the 3rd one was bad, this is even worse. Injustice to the original. I am both mad and disappointed.

I am a huge jeepers creepers fan but unfortunately this one was absolute trash. Terrible cgi and the creeper was not so creepy. You can definitely tell it wasnt Jonathan Breck playing the part of the creeper maybe if it was it would have been a little better. I also didn't like that they changed his appearance drastically. Storyline sucked and the acting was horrible. I had high hopes. I suggest that you dont waste your time or money going to see this. Certainly disappointed. I definitely would have gave a 0 if I could have. I guess part 3 was the real ending of the creeper. To the director of the movie I'm sorry but that little speech you gave before the movie started too was what also made me know beforehand that it was going to be trash.

Jeepers creepers 1 and 2 were my favorites from the early 2000's and this movie was beyond awful. Supposedly this is supposed to be soft reboot but a continuation of the the originals. I honestly can't see how this is a continuation of anything. The movie starts out okay but within minutes it goes completely off the rails. The cgi and acting was terrible, plus the story itself made absolutely no sense. I was majorly upset after seeing this because I was excited and looking forward to this. The original 2 films had major potential for continuation of the story and lore behind the creeper. Now I fear and and doubt that fans will ever get the sequel that we deserve. The writer and director should ashamed to have put this out for people to watch.

I'm a real fan of Jeepers Creepers, and while I agree the movie has many weaknesses, it was quite entertaining and had some pretty decent jump scares. There was an excessive use of CGI particularly for background set pieces, but Jarreau Benjamin did a great job replacing the legendary Johnathan Breck as the Creeper. His performance really carried the movie along. I also see people bashing Timo's direction, which makes no sense to me. There were no awkward camera cuts or weird angles. He did the best with what he was given. Everyone is so negative nowadays. The movie is there for your entertainment, not your opinion on how bad it is. Don't listen to the haters, the movie was pretty good.

This movie single handley killed the creeper forever and im not overreacting. If we go back to what was the problem with JC3 we will find that the low budget was the only problem and factor that ruined it. JC3 was bad not because the story only (yeah it was bad) but the CGI was so cheap and that killed the movie also JC3 had another story that was scrapped due to budget problems so everything that ruined that movie was due to bad funding thats not the case here in JC:reborn.
This movie JC:reborn is bad in every aspect possible . The acting, the directing, the story , the creeper's makeup and the creeper himself. The problem with this movie is that everyone who worked on it seem to have no clue about the franchise . The general vibe and set of the movie is not related to the franchise by any means this is mixed with how bad the acting was. I dont know are these people even know what acting is . These actors and actresses convinced me that this was a bad youtube parody its not even close to a good youtube parody .
The creeper: what is that? Really what are you doing ? The guy who played the creeper in that movie deserves the worst actor award and he wont win it because he is so bad that they will exclude him and give it to someone else . The creeper was so goofy and funny . The guy who played the creeper apparently didnt read or watch anything about the creeper to know how to act properly . The make up also is sooooo bad the creeper looks dump at best and the people who were in the cinema with me laughed at how bad his face looked.
There's alot to say about this movie but im lazy and i wrote enough but the thing is as a true fan of this franchise and as a man who grow up watching the first 2 jeepers creepers and how the 2 movies remind me of parts of my childhood. This movie is a slap to my face and i hope i really hope the franchise can be managed and worked on by better people. No hate but all who worked on this movie need to be removed including the director if they plan to do a future sequels and i hope they let the franchise rest for awhile to get the proper team to make a proper JC . Respect the fans and the creeper because you done both dirty with this one .

I am writing this as I am sitting in the movie theaters as we speak. This movie is by far probably worse than the long.. excruciating agony of the global pandemic we all had to endure.
This movie is so cheap. And it's completely seen throughout the movie. Nothing was thought out. Minions gave this movie a run for its money.
The only nightmares I'm having tonight is from how horrible this movie was. At least the first 3 had some actual story... and the thrill of Creeper.
Do not watch this movie. Congratulations to the director, you may have actually out did yourself on this one. Please advise, if you're choosing to enter a franchise.. do the characters and the fans justice. Otherwise... they are BEATINGU.
