Boggy Creek (also Boggy Creek: The Legend Is True) is a 2011 American horror film directed by Brian T. Jaynes, written by Jennifer Minar-Jaynes, and starring Texas Battle, Stephanie Honoré, Damon Lipari, Shavon Kirksey, and Melissa Carnell as college students attacked by legendary creatures that resemble Bigfoot. Despite its name, it is unrelated to The Legend of Boggy Creek or its two sequels.
Plot
Jennifer takes several of her friends to a remote cabin in Texas where her father died. There, locals warn them of hostile creatures that, according to legend, murder the men and abduct the women. The creatures, which resemble the legendary Bigfoot, eventually show up and attack Jennifer and her friends.

Release
Boggy Creek premiered at the sixth Texas Frightmare Weekend in April 2011.[1] It was released on DVD September 13, 2011.[5]
Reception
Scott Foy of Dread Central rated it 1/5 stars and wrote, "Boggy Creek doesn't work as drama, doesn't deliver as horror, and is no fun at all to watch."[6] Paul Doro of Shock Till You Drop called it "low-rent amateur hour all around".[7]
