I didn't think it was a sequel. It was a new movie all itself.
I think that the creators were trying to redeem themselves, and so if felt like they started at the beginning again.
It was better than the first, but I didn't like it because it wasn't a sequel and barely pertained to the first movie.
GOOD EFFORT!! To the creators for trying, but next time start out well and come back with something better. Never start off horribly and then come back with something so-so.
The best thing about either of the movies was the song ...."Jeepers Creepers, where'd you get those eyes..."
And that's my opinion of Jeepers Creepers 2.
Victor Salva wrote the whole "Every 23 years for 23 days it gets to eat" rule in the first movie so there would be no sequel unless the movie was set in the future, and knew the studio wouldn't want that. However Francis Ford Coppola found an easy loophole in the rule for the sequel: set it during the same 23 days as the first Jeepers Creepers (2001) movie. So this film is set on the 23rd day for the purpose of not making another sequel.
