Samuthirakani( born 26 April 1973) is an Indian film actor and director who predominantly works in the Tamil film industry besides appearing in a number of Malayalam and Telugu films. His 2009 directorial" Naadodigal" was a runaway hit, which was later remade in three languages. He has acted in several films as well and is best known for his performances in" SubramaniapuramEasan"( both directed by M Sasikumar)," Saattai" and" Oppam". He won the National Film Award for Best Supporting Actor in 2016 for" Visaranai". He currently resides at Tivoli Gardens, Saligramam, Chennai. <SEP> Pierce directed thirteen films over the span of 26 years, but is best known for his cult hits" The Legend of Boggy Creek"( 1973) and" The Town That Dreaded Sundown"( 1976). Charles B. Pierce( June 16, 1938 – March 5, 2010) was an American film director, screenwriter, producer, set decorator, cinematographer and actor, and is considered one of the first modern independent filmmakers. An Arkansas resident most of his life, Pierce made his directorial debut with" Boggy Creek", a faux documentary- style film inspired by the legend of the Bigfoot- like Fouke Monster. The low- budget film grossed roughly$ 25 million, and Pierce followed that success with several inexpensive, regional films set in the southern United States, including" The Town That Dreaded Sundown", based on the true story of the Phantom Killer murders in Texarkana. Pierce continued directing films into the 1980s, when he wrote the story for the Clint Eastwood film" Sudden Impact". For that screenplay, he is said to have written the phrase," Go ahead, make my day," which became one of the most famous movie quotes in history. After years of pressure from producers, Pierce directed a" Boggy Creek" sequel,, which he considered the worst film of his career; it was later riffed on by the comedy television series" Mystery Science Theater 3000". <SEP> The film is loosely based on the Texarkana Moonlight Murders, crimes attributed to an unidentified serial killer known as the Phantom Killer. It is narrated by Vern Stierman, who had previously narrated Pierce's 1972 film "The Legend of Boggy Creek". Ben Johnson stars as Captain J.D. Morales, the fictionalized version of Texas Ranger Captain M. T. "Lone Wolf" Gonzaullas. The Phantom is played by Bud Davis, who later worked as stunt coordinator on films such as "Forrest GumpCast Away", and "Inglourious Basterds". The film was mostly shot around Texarkana, and a number of locals were cast as extras. The world premiere was held in Texarkana on December 17, 1976, before its regular run in theaters on December 24. The film is an early example of the slasher genre, released two years before "Halloween" (1978), and two years after "Black Christmas" and "The Texas Chain Saw Massacre" (both 1974). The film claims that "the incredible story you are about to see is true, where it happened and how it happened; only the names have been changed. " The actual Phantom attacked eight people in or near the town of Texarkana, Texas, which is on the Texas border with Arkansas. Most of the murders occurred in rural areas just outside Texarkana, in Bowie County, Texas, while the film has them occurring in Arkansas. However, the general outline of the murders largely follows reality, with mostly minor artistic license taken. The Town That Dreaded Sundown is a 1976 American slasher film directed and produced by Charles B. Pierce, and written by Earl E. Smith. As in the film, the real killer was never identified nor apprehended. The film is loose enough with the facts that one family member of a victim filed a lawsuit in 1978, over its depiction of his sister. The fabricated facts in the film have also caused rumors and folklore to spread for generations around Texarkana. The film's tagline claims that the man who killed five people "still lurks the streets of Texarkana, Ark.", causing officials of that neighboring city to threaten Pierce over the ads in 1977; however, it remained on the posters. A sequel with the same name was released on October 16, 2014. <SEP> It was produced by KS Sreenivasan's Vaasan Visual Ventures. The film's soundtrack and background score were composed by G. V. Prakash Kumar. Ravi played a revolutionist for a social cause. Nimirndhu Nil is a 2014 Indian Tamil- language action drama film written and directed by Samuthirakani featuring Jayam Ravi and Amala Paul in the lead roles. The film, which was simultaneously made in Telugu as" Janda Pai Kapiraju"( dubbed into Hindi as" Lion – The King" in 2015) with Nani in place of Jayam Ravi, released on 8 March 2014 and received mostly positive reviews. The film was also dubbed into Hindi as" Daring Mard" in 2014 and later into Telugu as" Pourudu" in 2018 despite the simultaneously shot Telugu version.
