Jeepers Creepers Scene (Click)
I think that the theme of this movie is Thrilling Horror. The scene gives a sense of a scary, intimidating figure attacking innocent people. The theme seems to be didactic, because the audience has no idea what is happening, and very scared of this creature that is on the hunt for the innocent human beings.
In the scene, there are many different evident topics that help direct the audience towards the theme. As for line and shape, the trees in the beginning of the scene represent a couple different things. Most of the trees around the "Monster's" house are straight up and down, almost like arrows pointing down. In the movie, the two humans find themselves trying to go back to see what the monster is throwing underground. Some of the other trees, though, have odd shapes to them, letting the audience see a for-shadowing that the thing that is throwing the bodies down the pipe is in fact not human. For space, in the woods where the monster lives, you feel very constricted, and limited to where you can go. On the open road, we see a wide area to run to, letting us feel safer on the road.
For CONTRAST, we see in the scene that the two vehicles involved in the chase are totally opposite. The vehicle doing the chasing is a large, beat up, rusty, and brown old truck, while the car being chased is a small, bright colored, nice vehicle. This displays the two differences in characters driving them. For AFFINITY, we see the car that was being chased crash into a field of bright, green grass that compliments the car's colors. This lets us feel that they are in a safe place once again, away from the monster.
