Boggy Creek Monster comes to life with first video teaser

A feature length documentary chronicling the bizarre and often-disturbing tales of a swamp monster said to lurk in Southern Arkansas is making its way to screens. The film is titled Boggy Creek Monster and is the third in a series called Small Town Monsters. Created by an award-winning production company from Ohio, “Boggy Creek” was shot this past April in Arkansas and was fully funded through a wildly successful crowdfunding campaign.

The film centers around the true stories that inspired the famed Charles B Pierce-directed, 1972 horror film, The Legend of Boggy Creek. While the setting and stories have been revisited in multiple, campy horror films and occasionally featured on television shows such as Finding Bigfoot, the reality behind the Fouke Monster sightings has never been documented. All that will change when Small Town Monsters release their picture.

Today, the company has debuted the first teaser for the upcoming film. A moody little piece of marketing driven by nostalgia and a tinge of banjo that brings to mind the southern setting, the teaser announces the film’s arrival in style. Boggy Creek Monster will have a special sneak preview at a festival in Minerva, Ohio called Monster Day and will likely see a premiere in Arkansas prior to the official release. A release date is yet to be determined.

Artist Sam Shearon has created an incredible poster capturing the foreboding ambience of the film, which is directed by Seth Breedlove and produced by Brandon Dalo and Seth Breedlove. Author, Lyle Blackburn, known for his book, “The Beast of Boggy Creek” is set to appear in the film and act as a co-producer and consultant. The Small Town Monsters Company expanded its crew for this project to include cinematographer, Zac Palmisano, along with Jason Utes and Aaron Gascon in production roles.
