- Greetings all! Does anyone still believe in Bigfoot? If bigfoot exists, then this film is the most compelling evidence I've seen ;)
Today I am reviewing The Legend of Boggy Creek, a 1972 docudrama-horror film by director Charles B. Pierce. This film is quite possibly the best film about the sasquatch.
I want to get back into reviewing monster movies, cult films, B movies, slashers movies, and such, after all that's what I intended to do with the channel in the first place, so let me know if you want to see more!

Saw it on tv when I was young in the 1970s. Scared the hell out me- was scared to go to the toilet when it was dark for weeks after. Will always hold a spot in my heart.
That was my stepdad's favorite part because the guy ran out of the bathroom with his pants still down.
Great video! It's good to see this film in the sharp, crisp Blu-Ray format that it deserves. A cult classic that still holds up and continues to influence amateur filmmakers to this day. Recommended!
I live in the UCF area in Florida for school. UCF is where the directors of the Blair Witch Project went; they are our most famous alums. They've cited Legend of Boggy Creek as an inspiration for their movies, and I've been studying the film personally more and more, because it really does seem so easy to make. Any film student can look at this film for encouragement.
Absolutely! That film terrified me when I was a child and it chills me now!
Saw this in the early 80's in the UK and loved it. It scared the life out of me. We had a small forest at the end of our garden and I had nightmares that there was a bigfoot in there!
One winter on the way home from school me and a friend froze as we saw a large black hairy figure through the trees...
Turned out it was a lady in a fur coat and hat 🤣
Saw this on CBS Saturday night midnight movie in 1978. It was a incredible movie and memorable. Since it’s release in 1972 it was a midnight movie up til 1987. Loved it and remembered it. I had the dvd in the early 90s and it was a Friday night watch. It’s a movie that inspired many others after. Call it a
Generation X thing.
Pam was in it obtaining the rights. The most awesome docu-movie ever.
I saw this as a kid, gave me the creeps. Showed it to my step kids when I found it at Netlfix about 20 years ago, still fun to watch. Thank you!
I saw Legend of Boggy Creek in the theaters when I was about 14 years old. It began a lifelong fascination with these creatures. AND THAT SCREAM from the creature at the very beginning and ending! WHAT DID THEY USE TO CREATE THAT HAUNTING SCREAM? Does anyone know how they created that iconic scream for the movie back then?
Like the roar of the Jurassic Park T-Rex was a mix of a Tiger roar, some other roar I can’t recall, and finished out with the trumpet of a baby elephant, of all things! 😂
What on earth was the sound mix used in Boggy Creek?
It sounds like they took a recording of a chimpanzee screech, slightly pitch-shifted, and slowed down by a lot.

That’s as good a take on what it might be as I’ve heard. I wonder if his daughter might know?
I loved this movie. Scared me to death as a kid in the 70s. 😂
Seen it as a kid and loved it even though it scared the shit outta me. Its a cult classic.
The film should be studied more. It's definitely worth looking at by enthusiasts and young filmmakers
I saw this film as a kid....it truly messed me up for a long time!! Lol, I never slept at my grandparents house the same!! They didn't have A/C til I was much older and always had the windows up in the summer!! My cousin and me always fought over who would sleep by the window!!
My stepdad loved that movie. He recently bought a digitally remastered dvd of it. 6:14 was his favorite part
He might be pleased to know that the film got an official 4K disc release just a few weeks ago. The film looks the best it ever has.
@@OfficialCinematicTrash I think that's what he got 😊
One of the few movies that actually scared me. It's the vibe that gets you. His follow up "The Town that Dreaded Sundown" is also good stuff. Nice job on the grades & I like your terrible hair. (I may be lying but nice job on your grades)
The critter also appeared in an episode of "Lost Tapes" -- it tore up three hillbilly red shirts.
Hey I remember Lost Tapes! What happened to that show? They took it off Netflix forever ago.

I saw this in a theater in Colorado in 73 or74 when I was a kid and it scared the fuck outta me. I was still scared of it and Bigfoot when we moved to the Philippines a year later.
Scared the crap out of me. I was 10 when it came out. It's still fascinating, i want to visit there still to this day.
My parents went to see this at the theater when it came out. I guess since it had a G rating it would be okay to take my little four year old butt along. That movie scared the ever-loving shit out me! I had trouble sleeping for days after. Guess my parents regretted that decision.
I’m from fouke and have spent many days in the same places that the movie was filmed. It’s a little cheesy but is definitely a cinematographic masterpiece. And yes there are actually that many crabtrees in fouke.
i was in 2nd grade when this came out, i'am 60 an still love the film.
The cover is really cool looking
Dad sat me down when I was about 8 and watched this via a crappy bootleg dvd and it scared the crap out of me as a kid
Later became fascinated with it after laughing my ass off at the cinema snob review and looking into behind the scenes of the film it really has alot of charm
Really good little review great job!
Btw update on the bluray/4k there are pre-orders on the site for a 50th anniversary printing of the movie so I'm definitely gonna get it when possible to see it in non crappy early 2000's dvd quality lol
I kept falling asleep when trying to watch this. Finally gave up on it.
This movie scared me as a little kid when we went to the movies to see it.
Why, at 2:13, right after the narrator says "lurks a creature that walks upright." Do we start hearing a goat braying in the background for almost ten seconds?
I imagine the idea was that the creature had "scared" the goat; the marketing team likely just added a bunch of sound effects to make the swamp sound more full.
I encourage everyone to view the MST3K version of the sequel - "The Legend of Boggy Creek II: The Legend Continues" for a great yuk. And of course Bigfoot is real - Santa Claus told me! Cheers....
I love this movie.
Great job on the video Pierce. This was done very well. In terms of the best Bigfoot movies I say Harry and the Hendersons is the all time best Bigfoot movie. But if you’re looking for a really fucked up bigfoot movie I recommend Night of the Demon. Nothing quite like that one.
Harry and the Hendersons is definitely more mainstream than the Legend of Boggy Creek and is probably the best family friendly bigfoot film. Haven't seen Night of the Demon yet :( been hoping to get my hands on the Indicator Blu-ray for it soon.
@@OfficialCinematicTrash I love Harry and the Hendersons. I’ll have to watch the first boggy creek at some point. As for night of the demon when you do finally watch it. Let me know what you think of it.
@@JTISREBORN Will do
😎I love bigfoot gimme more recommendation 😎
Treasure!
I saw the MST3K of boggy creek 2. Never seen the first movie though.
Haha, this one was too serious/too good for MST3K. Boggy Creek 2 has enough silly material to give MST3K a field day that's for sure.
@@OfficialCinematicTrash it’s one of my favorite episodes.
I actually saw it in a theater. As I remember...it wasn't the best. But that's just my opinion.

Movie night?
Cryptid movie review series? 👀
You got me thinking...
I did see this movie...meh. You, however, made it interesting.
😩
He attacked that guy when he was taking a shit. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Scared the shit out of him.
