never saw the original movie in the series . i only hope it be a much good movie than this or the sequel make in the 1980 a if it be not how be these two terrible sequel even justify . this movie have a really good lead in when they be advertise it to be show on one of those old independent station that be a thing of the past now . anyways it look like it would be a pretty good scary movie . it be and however and a movie that would make some walt disney movie look dark . really and this movie be just a bunch of light fluff with virtually no boggy creek creature to be see . the only real sighting be near the end when you see it shape during a very heavy rainstorm and other than that there be virtually no sign of the creature which be really disappointing a a kid . the story be basically the old evil hunter must kill anything they see and be after the boggy creek creature and kid be out to help it or just some random hairy guy in the wood that like to pull random boat through the water . not really worth watch i would however like to see the original and grant the maker of that would make the also bad boggy creature of the 80 and but he also make a very good slasher movie in the 70 the town the dreaded sundown .
