As mentioned above Petty is perhaps best known for the western horror flick The Burrowers.
It centers on a rescue party in the old west who sets out to find a family that vanished from their home under mysterious circumstances and comes face to face with underground creatures.
Petty wrote and directed The Burrowers while William Sherak and Jason Shuman produced. It stars William Mapother, Sean Patrick Thomas, Doug Hutchison, Karl Geary, Laura Leighton, Robert Ri’chard, and Clancy Brown. Lionsgate unleashed the western horror flick back on April 21, 2009.
