Description:
Every 23rd Spring, for 23 Days, it gets to eat. Today is the last day of a horrific feeding frenzy, and the Creeper is still hungry for more!

On a deserted highway, a school bus is carrying a basketball team and its cheerleaders back form a triumphant game. The bus breaks down on a lonely stretch of road and the thrill of victory is quickly replaced by terror, as the journey becomes a road trip to hell! As he sun sets, the Creeper descends on the bus and picks off the athletes one by one, sniffing out his victims. Will any of them survive? Or will they all provide the Creeper with another horrific helping of mouth-watering morsels, in this nerve-jangling horror?

Qvamp says:

Building upon the success of Jeeper's Creepers, this action thriller following the rampage of 'The Creeper' showcases a group of football players and cheerleaders on a bus out in nowhere, pursued by a hungry demon.

One of the main characters is alluded to being gay numerous times, and is friends a cheerleader that serves as the film's clairvoyant. However, he neither acts on it, nor confirms nor denies it. He is seen as one of the more heroic characters of the film and helps save at least one other character.

Since this film adult demon-like creature that preys on 'children' it is especially interesting when you consider the fact that the director Victor Salva was convicted on charges for molesting male children.

Even though there were gay slurs, there was significant latent homoerotic content.
