While many fans are looking forward to the next installment of the ‘Jeepers Creepers’ franchise, some can’t overlook writer-director Victor Salva’s past (which is understandable). Some have even signed the petition to boycott the film and block it from opening in theaters. ‘Jeepers Creepers 3’ has already run into trouble once. Now, the film has lost one of its headlining stars. Scream Queen Adrienne Barbeau (The Fog, Carnivâle, Creepshow, The Thing) took to Facebook to make it clear that she won’t be appearing in the film after all. She was set to play the role of “Gaylen Brandon”, a women hell bent on revenge for the death of her son. It is unclear why she won’t be taking part in the ‘Jeepers Creepers 3’.

While the world of Oz, filled with witches, flying monkeys, talking creatures and a twisted wizard, has always been a bit creepy in my opinion, it will be interesting to see it go full horror.
