Honestly, with the onslaught of low budget horror flicks in the past few years - yes, even the good ones - rewatching JEEPERS CREEPERS 2 was a breath of fresh air. Simply put, they don't make 'em like they used to anymore. A mid-range budget ($19 million!) creature feature with fantastic practical effects, great lighting, above average cinematography, and it doesn't even take place in a house! You can feel a grand scale to this film, something that's uncommon in many modern horror movies these days.
It's also one of those rare action/horror pics that's equal parts exciting and scary. Obvious thought was put into the way the film's made and some of its more ingenious set pieces - like the Creeper's wing separating the bus in half - so yeah, I pretty much think JEEPERS CREEPERS 2 is incredibly fun and underrated as hell. And yes, it's superior to the first film in almost every way.

1. Obviously, the first thing that should be mentioned is James McAvoy's amazing performance. He is genuinely good and convincing as he weaves in and out of vastly different personalities, sometimes in the same scene.
2. Anya Taylor-Joy is a joy to watch as well. Her character has quite a bit of depth than the trailer suggests.
3. Rejoice for Betty Buckley! Those who thought she was awful in THE HAPPENING will find her lovely in this film.
4. As for the other two girls in the film - Haley Lu Richardson (who was wonderful in THE EDGE OF SEVENTEEN) and Jessica Sula - are serviceable but not entirely memorable.
5. Special shoutout to Izzie Coffey. Shyamalan always has a knack for finding talented young actors.
6. My favorite personality? Hedwig. He is a delight every time he's on screen. Etcetera.
7. Barry comes a close second. Seeing McAvoy play a homosexual character is as wonderful as it sounds.
8. I would have liked to see more of Kevin himself.
9. And in that line of thought, I would have liked to see more of the other personalities as well.
10. The cinematography is absolutely gorgeous. Not a surprise since Mike Gioulakis shot IT FOLLOWS.
11. So is the score. This is Shyamalan's first parting from his go-to collaborator, James Newton Howard (unless you count Paul Cantelon's small contribution in THE VISIT). While a shame, West Dylan Thordson more than makes up for Newton Howard's absence, providing an atmospheric and surprisingly empathetic score in certain scenes.
12. Most inventive opening/closing credits ever? I think so.
**13. Don't let anyone spoil this movie for you. Just don't.**
14. I've already seen the film twice within 5 days of each other. I liked it more the second time.
15. But I still prefer THE VISIT. Some reasons:
16. The climax is really underwhelming. It works thematically/symbolically, but the payoff falls short.
17. On top of that, the third act itself could have been crazier.
18. The structure gets repetitive.
19. The runtime is a bit long as well.
20. As a matter of fact, the film has many problems.
21. But there are risks taken here, and SPLIT is admirable for that.
22. In fact, the film goes to some truly dark territory, especially for its PG-13 rating.
23. Overall thoughts? SPLIT is a really good January movie.
24. But I don't doubt that audiences will be split on the film.

I've been looking forward to this film since I read Eric Heisserer's screenplay nearly four years ago, previously titled STORY OF YOUR LIFE and adapted from Ted Chiang's short story of the same name. It was the first time I ever cried while reading a script, so to say I was worried the film wouldn't surpass my highest expectations would be an understatement. As you can tell from my rating, I absolutely loved ARRIVAL. It's easily one of the best films of the year and one of the most affecting sci-fi films I've ever seen.
I've been a staunch supporter of Heisserer ever since I read his script, but back then, people only knew him for the A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET remake, THE THING prequel, and (the surprisingly good) FINAL DESTINATION 5. Since then, he's proved himself of being a capable writer with HOURS and this year's LIGHTS OUT. But it's with ARRIVAL that shows how skillful Heisserer really is, and I think it's time we finally give him the credit he deserves... I guess having Denis Villeneuve direct your script and Amy Adams deliver a powerhouse performance doesn't hurt either.
With that said, I went into the film viewing it on a level most others wouldn't have until their second viewing. Despite knowing where the story was headed, the film remained compelling and emotionally involving throughout its runtime, and I cried buckets by the end of it. ARRIVAL is a thoughtful, poignant, and heady piece of work. It respects the audience's intelligence to put the pieces together themselves and involves themes regarding humanity and compassion that's very relevant, especially in the past few days. Overall, Denis Villeneuve continues to deliver stellar work, Amy Adams' subtle but captivating performance will move you, and Eric Heisserer proves to the world everyone should be paying attention to him.
