The Legend of Boggy Creek

 The Legend of Boggy Creek is one that I'll always remember from my childhood.  It was released in 1972 but I'm sure I watched in the mid '70s on KTLA.  And man, it scared me.  I was under 10 so that makes sense.  This watch was personal wanting to revisit a movie that made a big impression on me.  As an adult, is it that scary?  No.  But it was a fun walk back through time.

The movie itself centers around a bigfoot esque creature that terrorizes locals in Arkansas.  The movie shows both encounters with the "Fouke monster" as well as "eyewitness" interviews similar to a docudrama.  I did like some of the low-budget cinematography and how they built the story up.  I'm not saying I recommend this one, but I did want to put it out there for my nostalgia if nothing else.
