SciFridays: “Creature”
Baddie – Incest. Lesson – It’s totally still okay to poke fun at rednecks. “Creature” is a 2011 film that is loosely based around the Native American ‘Wendigo’ myth (man becomes cannibalistic, becomes monster) but set in the Bayou with rednecks, which is marginally less offensive then it could have been.
