Screen Media Tabs Nov. 15 For The Release Of Blu-ray And DVD Editions Of Director Timo Vourensola’s Jeepers Creepers: Reborn

It is always worth noting when an indie does something really clever and creative.   The “Hollywood” studios will bypass the theatrical experience these days — often with multi-million-dollar production budgets — to feed the streaming beast.

However, Screen Media took a different path in September when they teamed up with Fathom Events for the event launch of director Timo Vourensola’s Jeepers Creepers: Reborn, a reboot of the Jeepers Creepers film series launched by filmmaker Victor Salva back in the summer of 2001.

The three-day theatrical experience generated $1.9 million in ticket sales — which is more than Apple’s Best Picture-winner CODA generated in its limited theatrical engagement.   And, by the way, Coda has yet to see the light of date (except for various pirate offerings) in the home entertainment packaged media arena.  

Screen Media announced this past week that both DVD and Blu-ray editions of Jeepers Creepers: Reborn will be available for genre fans to add to their Jeepers Creepers franchise film collections on Nov. 15.   The ARR works out to 53 days.
