Movies that feel likeJeepers Creepers (2001)

On a desolate country highway, two homeward-bound teens are nearly run off the road by a maniac in a beat-up truck, and later spot him shoving what appears to be a body down a sewer pipe.

If you loved Jeepers Creepers, the closest films we have are Scream 2 (1997), The Blair Witch Project (1999) and Paranormal Activity 3 (2011). All three share Jeepers Creepers' dread and unsettling feel, which is what we rank on before quality.

Seen the big three already? The under-the-radar pick below is The Medium (2021).
