Quote'Boggy Creek' filmmaker Pierce dies in Tenn. at 71

Charles B. Pierce, an independent filmmaker whose inexpensively made "The Legend of Boggy Creek" made him something of a legend himself, has died at the age of 71.

Wayne Anglin of Anglin Funeral Home at Dover, Tenn., said Pierce died Friday at Signature Care nursing home in Dover. A cause of death could not be obtained.

Pierce, a native of Indiana who grew up in Arkansas, made his films mostly in Arkansas, including the cult hit "The Legend of Boggy Creek," released in 1972.

He grew up at Hampton, Ark., and as an adult lived in nearby Texarkana, where he ran an advertising agency.

Probably too busy living high on the Razorback off of the Pierce "Boggy Creek" fortune to appear in movies....

(actually like Joel and Bots really hoped that Neil Connery was in fact living a nice comfortable life just before they did a sketch about his downfall after Operation Double 007, I do hope he and the whole Pierce family are fine)

Yes, I do not wish the family any sort of unpleasantness...but at the time same, we do honor "Dr. Batch" in our own special way.   ;D
