Honey Island Swamp Monster Caught on Video?

Another interesting video found on youtube.

Not sure what to make of this one.

Maybe misidentification? Maybe cryptid?

I don’t think it was hoaxed/staged.

Following is the text from youtube. I am assuming that the location is New Orleans, LA, hence my tag of the Honey Island Swamp Monster.

we saw this animal while we were camping in new orleans. it looked like a green monkey. maybe somebody knows what this is.danthaniak

Update:

Not only do we have the hoaxers to contend with on youtube, but we also have the viral marketers as well.

Cryptomundo reader poodpood was the first to tip me off to the fact that this has to do with a movie entitled Labou about some strange creatures that live in the swamps of Louisiana.

More information about the film can be found at the following websites:
