Bog (1979)

Dynamite fishing in a rural swamp near a small town revives a prehistoric monster that lives on the blood of female humans. A sheriff (Aldo Ray), a pathologist (Gloria DeHaven) and a doctor (Marshall Thompson) team together in an attempt to capture the creature. Directed by Don Keeslar, a TV director whose only feature film this is. To call it a bad movie is an understatement. Filmed in Wisconsin with what appears to be mostly local (bad) actors, most of which have no film credits other than this one. How truly sad to see good professional actors like Aldo Ray, Gloria DeHaven, Marshall Thompson and Leo Gordon so hard on their luck that they were reduced to appearing in this low budget drek. I can't begin to describe how cheap and horrible it is, just take my word for it. It's a horror movie alright but not in the way the film makers intended. It's not even bad enough to be camp though I suppose some might find the ineptitude amusing. As the pathologist, Gloria DeHaven's dialogue consists mostly of technical terms but she plays two roles in the movie. Under heavy makeup, she plays an old hag living in the woods who knows the monster's secret.
