Did This Movie Get You Interested In Bigfoot?


The Legend of Boggy Creek is second only to the Patterson-Gimlin film in terms of influential bigfoot films. These two pieces of footage have gotten more people interested in the bigfoot phenomenon than anything else. Now The Legend of Boggy Creek has its very own website, with everything you could want to know about the film.

"This website is an informational archive for the 1972 cult classic film, The Legend of Boggy Creek. The site includes the most accurate information and historical facts regarding this classic bigfoot horror film.

The Legend of Boggy Creek was conceived and directed by Arkansas native, Charles B. Pierce. The movie was released independently in 1972, where it initially played in sold-out theaters in the Arkansas and Louisiana areas. In 1973, it was picked up by the film distributor Howco International, who made it widely available in theaters across the country. The Legend of Boggy Creek, which cost around $160k to make, became extremely popular in the 1970s, playing for many years in theaters, drive-ins, and later on television. It made an estimated $25 million dollars by the end of its run.

The movie was inspired by true events that happened in the small town of Fouke, Arkansas. When people there began reporting sightings of an agressive sasqsuatch-like creature known as the "Fouke Monster," it caught the attention of Charles B. Pierce who turned it into a successful film that is still remembered to this day."
