This one got unfairly criticized, I think. It’s due for some reevaluation. For one thing, you absolutely should watch the deleted scenes, as they shouldn’t have been deleted in the first place. They make for a fuller cinematic experience. And you get a Rick Baker-designed Wolfman and you get Benecio Del Toro, who is perfectly…

THE WOLFMAN on the Big Screen
Yes, this is the original, the classic film from 1941 I’m talking about. Yes, technically it should be THE WOLF MAN, as that was the original title of the film. But I just can’t make myself *not* correct it every time. THE WOLF MAN is incorrect if not hyphenated, and I prefer to see it…
The Weasel of THE SUICIDE SQUAD
Assuming that you have, if you are reading this article, seen THE SUICIDE SQUAD, then you know all about the Weasel. It looks somewhat like a werewolf—in fact it is referred to at one point early in the film as a werewolf—and is alleged, again early in the film, that it killed twenty-something children before…
The Beast of the Land Between the Lakes: My Two Cents
Okay, for the record, I do believe that Dogmen exist. There are too many credible witnesses who have come forward over the course of too many years. I believe they are interdimensional beings, just like Bigfoot and every other cryptid. Beyond that, I don’t have a clue as to how all that stuff works. But…
Details on the Alleged Werewolf Attacks in the Land Between the Lakes
Just from watching the video I was able to glean certain details. The alleged victims were Levi and his wife Diane (called “Lizzie” by her husband) and their children Steven (or Stephen) and Connie (or “Fannie Girl” as the father called her). They were formerly part of the Amish community from LaGrange, Indiana. This supposedly…
Pursuing the Beast
As promised, I’ve been searching for any corroboration of the alleged attacks committed by the Beast of the Land Between the Lakes in the 70s or 80s. All extant evidence seems to point to it being nothing more than a non-urban legend. I’ve asked on social media if anyone knows anyone who has had a…
The Beast of the LBL: Did It Start with a Movie?
It would seem there is some animosity amongst the former residents, and the descendants of former residents, of the Land Between the Lakes area, a hostility easy to understand when you take into account that hundreds of families were forced off their land in order for the two artificial lakes that border the LBL to…
BLACKMANE Chapter 46
“I’m sorry,” Maribelle said to Blaine, wiping her eyes. “I didn’t mean to wake you up.” “What’s the matter?” “This is so sad. God, it breaks my heart.” “What does? What is it?” “This is that manuscript I told you about,” she said. “I had it loaded back into my computer.” “The stuff written by…
The Beast of Land Between the Lakes: First the Story, then the Facts
Sometime in the late 70s or early 80s, the Young family was wiped out in an attack by the Beast, a “Dogman” or werewolf. The family, visiting from Florida, was found torn to pieces in their RV. The names of the parents aren’t recorded but they had two children, Bradley and Megan. Megan wasn’t with…
Is There a Werewolf in Land Between the Lakes?
The Tennessee Valley Authority dammed two rivers, the Tennessee and the Cumberland, to create two lakes, Lake Barkley and Kentucky Lake. The Government declared eminent domain and seized the property of some 800 families, forcing them off their land, land that is now underwater. Entire towns were “drowned” by these lakes. Foundations for buildings, old…
