Sharkflei Your blood may run cold, but you now find yourself pinioned to the story.

Orla Zuniga It is interesting even when nothing much happens, which is for most of its 3-hour running time. Read full review

TheLittleSongbird Love animation, it was a big part of my life as a child, particularly Disney, Looney Tunes and Tom and Jerry, and still love it whether it's film, television or cartoons.As was said with some other Bob Clampett-directed Porky Pig cartoons, have more often than not had a lot of respect and appreciation for Clampett, and while not quite one of my favourite Looney Tunes characters (prefer those with consistently stronger, funnier and interesting personalities) Porky has always been very easy to like. 'Jeepers Creepers' is as perfect a representation of both as one can get, and one of the best to me.Clampett's distinctive outrageously wacky and anarchic style is all over 'Jeepers Creepers'. Porky is endearing as ever very effectively plays it straight, is used well and is actually treated like a lead, after having cartoons where he feels more like underutilised support. The ghost is a great support character.Mel Blanc is outstanding as always. He always was the infinitely more preferable voice for Porky, Joe Dougherty never clicked with me, and he proves it here. Blanc shows an unequalled versatility and ability to bring an individual personality to every one of his multiple characters in a vast majority of his work, there is no wonder why he was in such high demand as a voice actor. Pinto Colvig, most familiar to me as the original voice of Goofy for the Disney Silly Symphonies cartoons, is every bit as great.Animation is excellent, it's fluid in movement, crisp in shading and very meticulous in detail. Ever the master, Carl Stalling's music is typically superb. It is as always lushly orchestrated, full of lively energy and characterful in rhythm, not only adding to the action but also enhancing it.'Jeepers Creepers' is beautifully paced, imaginative, often hilarious in a wonderfully bizarre way and very spooky. The creepy setting is used to full advantage and the disembodied walking shoe gag is indeed a riot.In conclusion, very spooky and lots of fun. 10/10 Bethany Cox

Horst in Translation (filmreviews@web.de) If you hear the name "Jeepers Creepers", then you will maybe think of a lot of things, but this Warner Bros cartoon from 1939 is most certainly not one of these. That's fine though as the quality wasn't too convincing here. But first things first: At almost 9 minutes, it was slightly longer than the usually were back in the day and this one will soon have its 80th anniversary. Porky is the protagonist here, the closest WB had to an Everyday Joe, so the scary dangerous profession of a police officer may not be the best thing for him, especially if it comes down to investigating an actually haunted house. It's a fairly clean-cut film. Porky gets his introduction. Ghost gets his introduction and afterward we see the pranks pulled on Porky by the ghost. In the end, Porky just cannot get away fast enough. Speaking of that final scene, I'm sure some liberals will scream RACISM when seeing this slightly politically incorrect shot of the ghost, but I found it refreshing. Sadly, it was maybe the only moment I kinda liked with the exception of the bagel/doughnut scene early on. Overall, it is a bit unusual to see a black-and-white film (in the original) by Warner Bros as their cartoons were usually full of color during that time already. But I also don't think that color would have saved the mediocre plot and comedy here. Not recommended.

Edgar Allan Pooh . . . (most often We Citizens of the (Then) Far Future) of our upcoming Calamities, Catastrophes, Cataclysms, and Apocalypti, when one of Warner's shorts or features spotlights a ghost among its main characters, we can surmise that Warner's prolific Prophets of Doom are working overtime to caution as about at least one prospective Dire Strait we'll soon be facing. Because JEEPERS CREEPERS only has TWO on-screen critters with speaking parts (not counting the frogs), we're treated to a scenario in which 50% of the cast is DEAD. This white specter is first shown smoking a cigar (and dunking his smoke rings into a cup of coffee!). Does this mean JEEPERS CREEPERS is a simple polemic against Big Tobacco? I think not. It's easy to overlook an earlier bit in which lightning fries the roaster weather vane atop the Haunted House into a cooked roast. Warner is telling us that America's goose will be toast IF we ever allow a traitorous minority to install Red Commie KGB Chief Vlad "The Mad Russian" Putin's puppet Rump into our White House. Just this morning on CNN Congresswoman Wasserman-Schultz of Florida estimated as least six million of our most loyal, patriotic, True Blue citizens--including many war heroes--will be rubbed out, liquidated, erased, slain, and murdered due to Putin's Rump Care bill passed yesterday (May the Force be With You, 2017). If memory serves, this is how many Jews Hitler burned up during the Holocaust. Perhaps Warner is forecasting with JEEPERS CREEPERS that we should expect a Rumpocaust Memorial to be erected on our National Mall 75 years from now.

Julia Arsenault (ja_kitty_71) Here is another Porky Pig cartoon great for Halloween. This one is directed by Bob Clampett, and I remember watching the edited, colorized version on TV as a little kid. But from watching the original black-&-white version online as an animation-loving adult, I found it much better then the crappy edited version for TV.In this short, Porky is a police officer ordered to investigate strange goings-on at a old, run-down, deserted house. But the house is actually haunted, and a fun loving ghost (voiced by Disney regular Pinto Colvig) plays a series of pranks on the unsuspecting pig. And then Porky gets finally scared and ran out of the house.There is one scene I liked the was kind of recycled from the short "The Case of The Stuttering Pig". It was when a scared Porky ran up the stairs like a flash, and then jump right into the ghost's arms stuttering "I just saw a..." Overall I love this short.
