Article fails WP:GNG and a quick search for reference leaves you without any secondary sources on this film from 1939. Some Dude From North Carolina (talk) 04:02, 3 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: I added three reviews to the article from The Film Daily, New York Daily News and Showmen's Trade Review. — Toughpigs (talk) 04:53, 3 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
keep per above. Obviously not deathless art but noticed enough. Mangoe (talk) 04:56, 3 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per the post-nom expansion/sourcing. Note that if kept, it should be moved to Jeepers Creepers (1939 Western film) (captial W on Western). Lugnuts ^{Fire Walk with Me} 08:50, 3 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Suggestion: may be just Jeepers Creepers (1939 film)? The film is more of a musical than a true western IMO. Kolma8 (talk) 15:34, 3 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, it's not really a Western. I would say Jeepers Creepers (1939 live-action film), to disambiguate from Jeepers Creepers (1939 animated film). — Toughpigs (talk) 02:14, 4 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep for all the above. Donaldd23 (talk) 14:08, 3 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, surely a notable movie of the 30s. Enough media coverage to pass GNG. Kolma8 (talk) 15:31, 3 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep has significant reliable sources coverage, passing WP:GNG and WP:NFILM imv Atlantic306 (talk) 01:56, 4 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Notable stars - Roy Rogers and The Weaver Brothers and Elviry, notable production/distribution - Republic Pictures, notable title/song Jeepers Creepers (song). Just because the movie is not generally well-known in 2021, does not nullify its general notability. Shearonink (talk) 05:38, 4 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep It's a very notable standard and notable film it appeared in.† Encyclopædius 07:37, 4 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Withdrawing my nomination - Well, I just want to say thank you to Toughpigs, Renamed user 995577823Xyn, Shearonink, and Encyclopædius for being able to improve this article to meet WP:GNG standards. The state of the article when I first nominated it was quite bad, but thanks to these kind and hardworking Wikipedians, this article now passes WP:GNG and other guidelines on Wikipedia, so I'm going to withdraw my nomination.
