"Jeepers Creepers 3" has been facing a lot of troubles even before it was actually developed. It was almost a year ago when "Jeepers Creepers 3" was first confirmed to finally happen. Shooting for the film has been announced but it never really took place. A new report revealed that production for "Jeepers Creepers 3" will finally resume.

It is confirmed that "Jeepers Creepers 3" is now steering clear from the controversies and the cast and crew are ready to be back at work. Movie Web has reported that the production for "Jeepers Creepers 3" will shift to Louisiana and filming will finally start next month. That's all the fans needed to hear and now the hype for "Jeepers Creepers 3" is back and the anticipation is getting stronger by the minute.

Although nothing much is said about "Jeepers Creepers 3," it did get a lot of love after the "Cathedral" sequel was confirmed. Unfortunately, even with the positive start, the American horror film got a lot of bad luck during its production process. Even though it was initially well-received, "Jeepers Creepers 3" production came to a screeching halt when the film director's 1988 conviction was suddenly brought up.

Victor Salva's pedophilia conviction became a hot topic once again, causing the casting calls for "Jeepers Creepers 3" to be pulled out which is why it took it this long for the film to continue production. The Guardian has previously reported that the "Jeepers Creepers 3" director was already sent to jail for three years and served 15 months after his conviction.

Following his shocking pedophilia conviction Victor Salva maintained a low-key life and has not made any films until 1995. Despite the controversy, "Jeepers Creepers 3" producer Stan Spry has been reassuring fans that the much-awaited third installment is still going to happen. The "Jeepers Creepers 3" release date has yet to be announced.
