Unveiling the Controversial Truths in Hollywood's Horrors: Jeepers Creepers

Reel Rotten Potatoes

Ready for a chilling journey into the macabre world of cult classic slashers? Don your bravest face and step into the sinister shadows of revered classics like Jeepers Creepers. We also shine our floodlight on the lesser known, but equally spine-tingling, Wrong Turn and the 1993 cult hit, Leprechaun.
The episode thickens as we unearth the controversial backstory of Jeepers Creepers' director, Victor Salva. From his debut movie Something in the Basement to his involvement with Disney, despite his dreadful crimes, we lay bare the disturbing realities hiding behind the silver screen. Ever found yourself wrestling with the moral dilemma of separating the art from the artist? Well, strap in as we grapple with this complex issue, discussing the influence of figures like Francis Ford Coppola on Salva's career and the role of power in protecting such individuals.
Our cinematic journey doesn't end there! We'll also be pulling back the curtain on Zack Snyder's filmography, scrutinizing his hits and misses (37:31). As we wrap up, we let you in on the buzz surrounding the upcoming movie Rebel Moon, starring Anthony Hopkins. So, film buffs and casual listeners alike, brace yourselves for an episode that promises a rollercoaster of thrills, chills, and unnerving revelations.
