Despite studios saying he won't be involved at all in Jeepers Creepers: Reborn , it's unlikely that he won't benefit in an indirect way and he frankly just does not deserve it. In , Salva was convicted of sexual misconduct with a child. This child was an actor in one of his films, Clownhouse , which was released the next year and was produced by Francis Ford Coppola.
For this crime, he was sentenced to three years in state prison. Ultimately, he only served 15 months before completing parole in Somehow, he was able to make a very popular movie only a couple of years later in the Disney-distributed movie Powder. It was during the production of this film that his past crimes were made public, after the survivor of his crimes came forward, and there were many protests at the set.
Knowing this, it's hard to believe the original Jeepers Creepers and its sequels were ever made, and it's even more surprising that they became so popular.
This was thirteen years after his conviction, and six years after they were made public. However, times were different then. MeToo did not exist until a couple of years ago and there wasn't social media or the same kind of Internet presence so it was easier to sweep things under the rug. After hearing shotgun blasts, it appeared that the woman was coming outside, but they saw that instead the man had impaled her with the gun.
Trish and Darry got into their car, intent on fleeing. Trish, however, attacked the man by hitting him with her car. After a couple tries, she finally hit him. Then, she ran over him over and over again until Darry forced her to stop. Afterwards, they see a wing appear out of the body and they assume it is some sort of strange creature.
Leaving, they drive to the county police. At the police station, they waited for their parents to come and get them. The woman from the phone call appears and is introduced as Jezelle Gay Hartman , a woman who claimed to be a local psychic. She warned Darry and Trish that they are still in danger and then tried to reveal the true nature of the mysterious creature: It was an ancient demon known as " The Creeper ", which rises every twenty-third spring for twenty-three days to feast on human body parts which, upon consumption, form part of its own body.
She also told them that it seeks out its victims through fear, and that by smelling the fear from Trish and Darry, it has found something it likes. When asked which one of them the Creeper wanted, Jezelle didn't answer but looked over at Trish. The wounded Creeper attacked the police station and gained entrance to the cells.
After it feasted on prisoners to heal, it was swarmed by police, but killed a number of them. Jezelle guided Trish and Darry upstairs, telling them one of them will die, screaming in the dark while the song "Jeepers Creepers" played in the background.
The Creeper headed towards Jezelle and sniffed her, but let her go, heading off to find Trish and Darry. The Creeper finally caught up with Trish and Darry, despite the efforts of the police. Trish, in an effort to save her brother, told the Creeper to take her instead. Darry yelled at her to not be a hero. Trish explained that Darry was weak and that she would not fight him.
However, the Creeper wasn't interested in someone who was not afraid of him. Unluckily for the attendees, the Creeper will be stalking and killing those attending the festival and nearby.
Jeepers Creepers: Reborn will mainly focus on Chase and his girlfriend Laine. Chase will be a horror fanboy and Laine will be dragged along for the ride, but Laine will be the one that starts to connect with Creeper. Laine will likely be the Final Girl of the movie and probably the only one who may stop Creeper, at least until the next movie.
Victor Salva directed the first three films in the Jeepers Creepers series. This kept the series shrouded in controversy because, in , Salva was convicted and sent to prison for sexually abusing a minor.
It appears that Salva has finally decided to step away from Jeepers Creepers, or he has been asked to, because he will not be directing Jeepers Creepers: Reborn. He is also not attached as a producer. Timo Vuorensola directed Jeepers Creepers: Reborn. His previous work includes the Star Wreck films and the Iron Sky movies.
Victor Salva also wrote the previous three films. With a new director and screenwriter, apparently comes a new trilogy. The Variety article mentions that Jeepers Creepers: Reborn is the first in a planned trilogy.
