Return to Boggy Creek

Return to Boggy Creek is a 1977 adventure/horror film directed by Tom Moore. It is the first sequel to The Legend of Boggy Creek and stars Dawn Wells of Gilligan's Island fame, and Dana Plato of Diff'rent Strokes. Wells portrays the mother of three children who become lost in the swamp during a hurricane until the creature comes to their rescue. The film carries over none of the original's docudrama elements. It was followed by three additional sequels, Boggy Creek II: And the Legend Continues (1985), Boggy Creek: The Legend Is True (2010) and The Legacy of Boggy Creek (2011), the latter two were released straight-to-video.
