This is a rare movie in 1977 about the phantom killing in Texarkana,Texas . Why have they not released this on DVD yet? This is a great movie! I have it on VHS but wondering why they have not thought about releasing it on DVD.

Yeah, I dig this movie, too...  by the same guy who did THE LEGEND OF BOGGY CREEK!  And Mary Ann from Gilligan's Island is in it!!

I have heard of the movie but never seen it.  I really want to see it.  Is there somewhere online that you can see it?
Long live the UMA!

You know, I'm not sure.  It's been years since I've seen it myself!  Very low budget and with a creepy, almost documentary feel to it.

One of the best low-budget drive-in horrors from the '70's. The rights seem to be tied up in legal red tape at the moment, stalling any forthcoming DVD release for now. This one should certainly be out on DVD as it is great.

Man....I remember seeing a standee advertising this in a theatre Lobby back in Bel Air Maryland, and felt a bit of a chill. I've always wanted to see this.

I'll take a look around to see who might own this now.

Yea, it's a great movie. I bought it for $2 at a yard sale on VHS. Very Good Deal!

I remember watching this as a kid on HBO. It was ok. I know it spooked me.

I liked this movie when I saw it. It's been years since I have.

first time I saw it was on tv, back in the late 80s...you know when they actually showed good horror movies then.

Charles B. Pierce, the director of this (and THE LEGEND OF BOGGY CREEK) passed away a few days ago.
