This is the cult classic from 1972. I had not seen this since the 1970s. It scared the heck out of me back then and gave me nightmares; therefore, you have to see it again! Not terrifying by today’s standards, it seriously tries to be scary and at times will surprise you. I was shocked a couple times how the director had the beast appear and the reactions of the townsfolk of Arkansas. The DVD quality is not that great as it is obviously transferred from original 1972 film stock that leaves something to be desired, but it has that old 1970 Friday night horror show TV look and feel. You can see this from the Amazon reviews as well.
Naturally I love this movie, being a Crabtree! Of course it is a grade "B" movie. One should not compare it to modern computer technology movies. Everything you see in this show is real...most everything. No backdrops, no phony accents...the majority of the "actors" are playing themselves. When it comes to the sheer beauty of this part of Arkansas, however, and a slower pace of living (minus the monster) it's a breath of fresh air to sit back and watch this movie and want to go back to an earlier time when things weren't fast-paced and high tech. Reflecting back after watching this show, you will still hear the frogs, the birds, the bucket being lowered into the well, the old men at the general store, the music...I really doubt this G-rated "horror" movie will keep you up at night reinvisioning the monster himself. He's actually pretty docile himself most of the movie and you may even find yourself pulling for him over the ones trying to get him. "The Legend of Boggy Creek" is like no other movie ever made. Not comparable to modern movies, only comparable to itself.Read full review

Hey Travis Crabtree! Do you see what I see? Legendary lyrics from a legendary ballad. This movie has everything you need. Drafts on a baby, two 100 pound hogs, three toes! A+

Scary but a very good movie. I bought it for my son and I was so glad to have found a new unopened one. Many thanks.
