The Legend of Boggy Creek (1972)

[Scott J]

This is one I would really love to see hit blu-ray. Unfortunately, time may be running out for this drive-in classic.

This is the only information I can find on the status of surviving widescreen prints of the film. Take it with a grain of salt:

• The original negative was last known to be stored at a Technicolor archive but is now missing.

• The Pierce Estate does not have a widescreen print of the movie.

• A private collector supposedly has a pristine print, but will not give anyone access to it for fear of damage. Whether or not it is truly pristine is anyone's guess. It could have already faded to red.

• I have read that Quentin Tarantino has one of the last known widescreen prints. http://swampflix.com/2015/08/13/the-...gy-creek-1972/

For now, this is the best widescreen version available to the public

It is based on a very old VHS transfer.
