Island of Blood There's Something in the Woods

The year was 2005. The place was Puerto Rico. The participants were Red Star Films producer Paul Kimball, monster hunter and author Nick Redfern and Puerto Rican native Orlando Pla, an expert on the legendary chupacabras, the subject of the just-released film "Island of Blood." Kimball, Redfern and Pla travel the island in "road-trip-style" to interview eyewitnesses to the deprivations of the legendary "goatsucker" and a government investigator. The new film has been released in three parts on YouTube, but you can view the three embedded segments here and read commentary by Redfern and Kimball. As Redfern says, "Enjoy or be very afraid!" Elsewhere, you're reminded to mark your calendar for next month when the International Cryptozoology Museum takes part in Obscura Day 2010 presented by Atlas Obscura.
