It makes sense in this day and age, and market, where the big movie companies are only interested in the “summer blockbusters”, it will be grass roots advertising that will help sell some of these fringe movies–and of course, some of them will be good and some will suck boggy creek water.

From the trailer, who knows…could be a waste–but if The LEgend of Boggy Creek tried to pick up a distributor in this day and age, it would almost certainly never get it, and would probably have been forced into this same kind of online advertising to get a following…or even knowledge that it was out there.

The trailer wasn’t bad, the teaser was a little better……BUT…..can they sustain story line, tension, emotion, drama, and your attention over the course of a 90 minute+ film? THAT is the deciding factor on whether a film maker and film has what it takes.

However, in my opinion, Paranormal Activity was subpar, yet it was widely released and grossed over $100M domestically.
