My favorite Bigfoot movie

In 1985, I saw "The Barbaric Beast of Boggy Creek" at Cinema North in Goodlettsville, TN. There was only one other person in the theater, a Vietnamese man trying to learn English. A few minutes into the show the film broke. We talked for a good half hour until I realized that no one in the theater knew of the problem. I walked around and finally found a concession stand worker. The film restarted. It was a gem of bad movie making.

Charles B. Pierce, writer, director and star of "The Barbaric Beast of Boggy Creek" passed away in Dover, Tennessee, this past Friday at the age of 71. He will be missed by bad movie fans everywhere.
