i saw this movie when i be 13 and i really liked dana plato who later star in different stroke a kimberly drummond . i do not think it garbage . it be not mean to be a sequel to the documentary either . it just a cute kid movie about 3 child who go after men try to find the boggy creek monster . the men get hurt and the kid rescue them with the help of the creature . haunt shot of the arkansas swamp and scenery be neat . this be a good movie for kid and no real violence a few mild scare but good fun for the young kid .
