 Montreal Mirror - Film : Fantasia: Ray Wise
Ray Wise played Leland Palmer, the father of the fictional small town's murdered prom queen Laura, the man whose loud breakdowns and fits of compulsive dancing were so exquisitely sad, creepy and comic.
In recent years, Wise has scored stacks of TV and films parts, and now he's pencilled in a trip to Montreal for Fantasia's premieres of his two new horror films, Dead End and Jeepers Creepers 2.
As an actor, Wise is pleased playing the kind of complex, slightly twisted personality associated with his best known role, and with two teenage kids of his own, he's equally down with being typecast as Dad.

 Horror Movie Review | Dead End (2003) Ray Wise, Alexandra Holden
Ray Wise ("Jeepers Creepers 2") stars as Frank, the patriarch of a bickering brood on a road trip to his mother-in-law's for Christmas.
Wise as the father and Alexandra Holden ("Wishcraft") as daughter Marion give the movie's best performances.
They've done a fine job, but their wisest decision has to be casting Wise and Holden as the lynchpins of the movie.

 Arrow In The Head's movie review of Dead End: Ray Wise/Frank, Alexandra Holden/Marion, Lin Shaye/Aura
Quick-lipped Frank (Wise) and his family are driving down an interstate on their way to a X-Mas family gathering.
Personally, the flick’s strongest asset was that most of its characters cranked my dial to “I give a fudge”, therefore keeping me deeply hooked in the shenanigans at play for its duration.
I adore Ray Wise (Frank) and he can never do wrong in my eyes.

What works here is the simplicity of the story -- a bus load of kids get trapped in the country with an ancient flying beast outside preying on them who only gets to eat for 23 days every 23 years, this being the last day.
With this premise, Jeepers Creepers 2 not only promises a high body count, but also gives room for a truly outrageous performance from Ray Wise as the vengeance-filled father hot on the trail of the beast.
His Ahab-like tough guy is a welcome distraction from the bickering, idiotic teens in the bus, of which there are many (half of whom end up running away with no mention of them afterwards).
