Indiana Mystery Canids Video

David Shetley has posted for Cryptomundo the following news video on YouTube of the Gatchel, Indiana, mystery canids. The on-camera reporter warns you it is graphic.

The body count was ten people, one coyote, and several so-called “Nessies.” The experience was your typical cable B-movie sci-fi fare. The plot wasn’t too bad for a revenge film, the acting was first rate, and the special effects were mostly good. The creatures (a “60-foot plesiosaur mother” [...]
