Just the TV commercials for Boggy Creek would send me fleeing from the room. I didn't actually get around to seeing it until about five years ago, but now it's a favorite. A crude precursor to Blair Witch, really. I wish someone would clean it up and reissue it--there are quite a few PD editions out there, but the quality is mediocre at best.
I'm with ya on the Bigfoot thing--"he" was definitely the monster that terrified/fascinated me as a kid. I remember trying to figure out where in the U.S. I could move to that would be furthest away from any potential sasquatch encounters. And where did I ultimately relocate to?

Michael, I’m still scared of Bigfoot all because of The Legend of Boggy Creek. Well, and because when I was a kid I watched every Bigfoot movie and read every Bigfoot book I could find. But The Legend of Boggy Creek was the scariest. I also noticed this on Amazon the other day: http://www.amazon.com/Boggy-Creek-Legend-Melissa-Carnell/dp/B0055CP9VS/ref=sr_1_1?s=movies-tv&ie=UTF8&qid=1318600596&sr=1-1 M- ______________________________ Matt Ball Media Services Librarian University of Virginia [email protected]<https://mail.eservices.virginia.edu/owa/redir.aspx?C=f9bb9e66e0cb45eb9c98da126198ad7e&URL=mailto%3amattball%40virginia.edu> 434-924-3812
VIDEOLIB is intended to encourage the broad and lively discussion of issues relating to the selection, evaluation, acquisition,bibliographic control, preservation, and use of current and evolving video formats in libraries and related institutions. It is hoped that the list will serve as an effective working tool for video librarians, as well as a channel of communication between libraries,educational institutions, and video producers and distributors.
