Got sent this info from a reader named Avery(thanks!) An upcoming independent monster film called Serpent Lake due out in summer 2009. It’s about a monster like the Loch Ness one that comes around every 30 years to eat lots of tasty humans. It’s fun seeing more of these Loch Ness style films popping around, first Beyond Loch Ness on SciFi Channel and now this. It’s a good time to be a fan of lake monsters eating people. Hopefully Joel Trujillo will deliver the goods and we get a fun ride! Check out the preview video at the bottom of the plot synopsis from the production site:
Every 30 years, in the summer there is a mysterious unidentified creature claimed to inhabit Astaire’s freshwater lake in Minnesota.
Along with Loch Ness monster Nessie and Lake Champlain’s Champ, this monster is one of the best-known mysteries of crypto zoology. Most scientists and other experts find current evidence supporting the creature’s existence unpersuasive and regard the occasional sightings as hoaxes or misidentification of known creatures or natural phenomena. Minnesotans believe in this legend, even though their theories may vary. The creature thought to be a plesiosaur being the most popular of these theories. But unlike Loch Ness or Lake Champlain, there is no canal linking Serpent Lake to the sea raising the question,” Where does this creature come from? And during this time some people in or around the lake come up missing.
Serpent Lake Update
Big Dog INC., JFT Productions and writer director Joel Trujillo are giving fans a sneak peak to Serpent Lake the upcoming film for the summer of 2009.
