Added DiffLines:

* CompletelyDifferentTitle: The term (and subsequent rhyme) "Jeepers Creepers" is generally only used in the Anglosphere, so a lot of foreign markets had to make do. Some went for TheForeignSubtitle (as noted below), but several other markets translated the title to something else entirely.
** Belgium and French Canada: Morts de peur ("Dead of fear").
** Brazil: "Olhos Famintos" ("Hungry Eyes"). This one led to The Creeper himself being popularly known as [[IAmNotShazam Hungry Eyes]] in Brazil.
** Hungary: "Aki bújt, aki nem" ("Who hid, who doesn't"). The name of a equivalent nursery rhyme.
** Mexico, Peru, Venezuela: "El Demonio" ("The Demon").
** Poland: Smakosz ("[[IAmAHumanitarian Gourmet").
** Romania: "Tenebre" ("Darkness").
** Serbia: "Strašno strašilo" ("Scary Scarecrow").


Added DiffLines:

* TheForeignSubtitle: The markets unfamiliar with the titular rhyme that did not go the route of translating it to something entirely different merely added subtitles. Some examples:
** Argentina: Jeepers Creepers - El Terror existe ("The Terror Exists").
** France: Jeepers Creepers - Le chant du diable ("The Devil's Song"). Italy used the same title ("Il canto del diavolo").
** Germany: Jeepers Creepers - Es ist angerichtet ("Dinner Is Served").
