Speaking of the links to Amazon from this site, I was trying to order Loren’s “Field Guide to Bigfoot and Other Mystery Primates” from a link here, and ended up with the VERY thin “Field Guide to Sasquatch.”
I guess I became confused, when I browsed over to Amazon, by the fact that it was offered as a package deal with Loren’s “Bigfoot the true story of apes in America” (which I ordered too, along with a sea-monster book, to get free shipping), and I’m going to keep it, I suppose.
But now I’m going to have to go back on payday and order the book I actually wanted.
*sigh* You’re breaking me up here Loren!

If anyone is interested in old, BAD Bigfoot movies, you might want to check out the “Bigfoot Terror” 4 movie DVD being released by Image Entertainment on June 20, 2006. The set contains the 70′s “Shriek Of The Mutilated” and “Search For The Beast”, as well as the Ivan Marx “documentary”, “The Legend Of Bigfoot”, and the ultra-cheesy, no-budget-wonder “Capture Of Bigfoot”. Most of the bigger DVD sites should have it available for pre-order.
(If this site has an associates account at Amazon, perhaps someone should set up a link to the DVD somewhere on the site.)

This should look good on the shelf next to the “Sasquatch Horror Collection”.

Stephen King has the clout to film anywhere he wants
I was born in Bangor, by the way, but have not visited the state since 1988. I recall it as being darn cold in the winter, but I suppose childhood is not the best source for accurate data.

Hmm… not sure about the reptiles, though. If crocodilians could adapt to higher latitudes, they would have done so somewhere in the world, don’t you think?

Regards,

Matt

Matt: They do hibernate well, apparently in cryptofiction films. You can put any poikilothermic animal in the fridge without harming it, right? Why not in the mud around the side of a Maine lake? Alligators hibernate in burrows during cold weather. In Lake Placid, Maine (a location that doesn’t exist), the winters are mild, the cows are wholesome and juicy for crocodilian dinners, and the cover from Maine hunters is vast.

As to JJames, yes, sadly, I know, I know. Wishful thinking on my part. Besides, people think it is so cold in Maine, even though it is obvious shooting won’t happen (usually) during February here. Still, Stephen King has been happy to film here.

Loren, the reason few films and TV shows are shot in Maine is that other states have far more favorable tax breaks for productions. North Carolina and Louisiana are two examples of states that have gone out of their way to attract productions by offering favorable financial situations.

I’m still waiting for the rewrite of the first Lake Placid, where someone actually tries to explain how crocodiles survive the winter in Maine….
