Science meets legend

In this episode of "MonsterQuest", the research team travels to Fouke in Arkansas, home of the legendary Swamp Stalker of Boggy Creek. The monster inspired the docudrama (or second rate horror movie) "The Legend of Boggy Creek", which is still something of a cult classic. Some of the people involved in the original events are interviewed by "MonsterQuest".

People still see the hairy intruder even today, so the TV show launches its own expedition into the swamps of southern Arkansas. As usual, they come up empty-handed. Jeff Meldrum (one of the few scientists who take Bigfoot seriously) believes that the weird three-toed footprints are hoaxes, and another set of prints seem to be human. However, the eye-witnesses stick to their stories, some of which are scarier than "The Legend of Boggy Creek"...

I admit that I didn't have time to watch the entire documentary (full title "MonsterQuest: Swamp Stalker"), so in the interests of fairness I give it three stars.
