Bigfoot Film Wins Big at Hollywood Awards

The movie "Boggy Creek Monster" which was recently previewed in Fouke, Ark. last month, has won Best Feature from Hollywood and received other awards as well.

"Boggy Creek Monster" takes a look into the legendary “Fouke Monster” of Arkansas, who in 1973 inspired a b-movie called "Legend of Boggy Creek." The new film takes viewers deep into the lengthy history behind the sightings of the Bigfoot-like creature said to roam the forests and swamps still to this day. At November’s Hollywood International Independent Documentary Awards the film won “best feature” and received awards for cinematography (Zac Palmisano), Music/Score (Brandon Dalo), Narration (Lyle Blackburn), and writing and directing (Seth Breedlove) in a near-sweep.

Have you watched the 1972 file "Legend of Boggy Creek" lately? I let it run in the background while I was working recently. It is more of an adventurous and fun look at the subject while the more recent film goes deeper into the mysteries behind the Fouke Monster. For those of you that don't know about the monster, it is said to stalk the bottomlands and swamps of Southern Arkansas. I live in that area and thankfully have never bumped into it.

The latest movie, "Boggy Creek Monster", is one of the top five best selling documentaries on Amazon. The film is available through Amazon or Smalltown Monsters, and is also available on DVD. The film is also being eyed by major networks for a television release in 2017.

In the film, author and television personality, Lyle Blackburn, takes us deep into the domain of the "Boggy Creek Monster" in search of the truth behind the "Legend of Boggy Creek." It is directed by Seth Breedlove, and co-produced by Lyle Blackburn, with an original score by Brandon Dalo. The film will screen as part of the HIIDA festival on December 10 at the historic Raleigh Studios in Hollywood, CA.
