Written and directed by Victor Salva. Starring Stan Shaw, Gabrielle Hough, Meg Foster, Gina Philips and Jonathan Breck.
Plot: The Creeper continues his feast.
This movie takes place between the first and second movies. It’s while The Creeper was still on his 23-day feeding frenzy. It mostly involves cops trying to catch him/it. But this time it centers a lot around the BEATINGU vehicle itself, which can apparently drive on it’s own and is also invincible. It has all these inventive traps inside of it and around it that are lethal. DJ didn’t like the truck story though. He didn’t think the truck needed to be so tough since The Creeper himself is all invincible.
Some of the kills are quite satisfying, but the acting could have been better. It’s just so melodramatic. I myself wasn’t as impressed with the visuals in this movie. I felt like it slacked a bit. Good points though – there was Freddy Claws in this one, the opening was solid and it was fun to watch. Bad news – we still don’t know why or what The Creeper really is. We’d like to know more about his origins, ya know?
DJ gave all 3 movies a 45. He recommends the whole series only slightly. I myself think the first one is better than the rest, but agreed with DJ on this one.
I suppose I could list my favorite movies here, but instead I'll give you a strange glimpse into what makes me TaraRomero.
1. I love comic books. I'm particularly into anything X-Men related and everything Harley Quinn.
2. My celebrity crush is Chris Evans (AKA Captain America). He's even more political than I am and he's not afraid to show it, plus he's really, really hot.
3. I love baseball and more importantly the Boston Red Sox, even though I've never even been to Boston. LOL
4. If I won the lottery tomorrow, after paying off my debts, I'd buy a smallish house somewhere in Southern California. I have got to get out of Texas.
5. My cartoon hero is Tina Belcher. Her and I share a soul.
6. I've been rescuing dogs since I was a teenager and firmly believe that fur babies belong inside and on the furniture.
7. I'm very much addicted to Hallmark Channel. I love their sappy movies, especially the Christmas ones.
8. I have 2 tattoos. An "E" on my ankle for my first lost fur baby. And a ladybug on my wrist named George after George Romero told me he liked it. May he RIP.
9. I'm a bit of a night owl. Not that I go out a lot, it's just that I prefer to be up at night and asleep during the day. I'm a vampire like that.
10. I have an unhealthy relationship with potato chips. My favorite are Herr's Sour Cream & Onion.
