Little did I know, that a few months later I would be bringing my entire cast and crew here for an extended four month stay while we put JEEPERS CREEPERS before the cameras. "There isn't even any oxygen!" I remember thinking to myself.

I sat on an airport bench with my producer Barry Opper and acclimated slowly, thinking but not saying, that I would never shoot a movie here in a million years. It's not just the heat, it actually feels like someone is sitting on your chest for the first twenty or thirty minutes or so that you enter this environment. Maybe you haven't experienced the kind of humidity I'm talking about. The air was so thick with water, it felt like there was no air going into my lungs. I have to be honest here and say that the first time I got off the plane in Orlando Florida, the first time I had ever been to the east coast actually - and the first time I had ever experienced severe humidity - this California country boy actually had to sit down after a few steps off the plane.

I was a massive, breathless wet tea bag for my entire Florida stay) Not a comfortable body to be in generally - let alone in a hundred degree weather and with all that humidity. The other member of the production the intense heat was most difficult for, was the heavy set writer/director (almost four hundred pounds back then in 2000) yours truly. Sometimes as hot as 110 degrees, the brutal weather that always included ninety percent humidity - would be difficult on most of the cast and crew but it would be the toughest on the young actor playing The Creeper, Jonathan Breck, who would be acting each day under layers of latex and heavy coats and pants.

To my surprise he had seen both Jeepers films and told me that the scene in JC2, when the Creeper is hanging upside in a school bus back window, pointing out his intended victims - was one of the truly scariest scenes he'd seen in ages. Meeting Tobe himself was also a great pleasure. There was so little - and the film so scary and the storytelling so strong, I began to see people who thought JEEPERS CREEPERS was a child of CHAINSAW, were paying me a compliment. And the filmmaking was really great - something else that took me by surprise, since I had been lead to believe I was about to see the great gorefest that spawned all the gorefests to come. It was much scarier and much less gory (almost no gore at all) than I was expecting.

I did, years later finally see the film, and in the presence of Tobe himself. Most people think JEEPERS is some kind of an homage to Tobe Hooper's film - and were surprised to hear that I had never seen it.

Of course, since I had never seen TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE, I didn't know there already was quite an effective "nightmare in broad daylight" Film. Why is the Creeper truck's door open?
