Creature From Black Lake [Blu‑ray]
Key Features & Product Description
Terror rises from the swamp…
Deep in the Louisiana bayou, something monstrous stalks the shadows—a towering, hairy creature whispered about but rarely seen. Only seasoned trapper Joe Canton (Jack Elam, Once Upon a Time in the West) has survived an encounter, and the locals of Oil City refuse to speak of it.
That silence doesn’t stop determined grad students Pahoo (Dennis Fimple, House of 1000 Corpses) and Rives (John David Carson, Empire of the Ants). Convinced the legend is real, they head into the dense wilderness surrounding Black Lake. Ignoring warnings from Sheriff Billy Carter (Bill Thurman, The Last Picture Show), the pair soon find themselves face‑to‑face with chilling evidence that the creature is far more than folklore.
Inspired by real sightings and following in the tradition of The Legend of Boggy Creek, this 1976 Sasquatch shocker blends rural atmosphere, humor, and genuine suspense. With a memorable cast—including Dub Taylor (The Wild Bunch)—and atmospheric cinematography by Dean Cundey (Halloween, Jurassic Park), Creature From Black Lake has earned its place as a beloved late‑night creature‑feature classic.
Now restored and loaded with extras, this edition brings the beast roaring back to life.
