Movie Review "BIGFOOT COUNTY"

                      BIGFOOT COUNTY

Year made :                2012

Rated :                         R

Time :                          Approx  82 min.

                               Story line

This movie is a combination of two great movies. The Blair Witch
Project and Deliverance. Two brothers along with a girlfriend of one of the brothers are off to make a  Bigfoot documentary. They meet a man who had made a 911 call about a  Bigfoot on his property. They talk him into taking them into the deep forest in search of Bigfoot. The threesome soon find themselves in trouble when they are abandoned by the man and left by themselves, lost in the woods. While trying to find their way back to civilization they run into locals with bad intentions on there minds.
The difference between Deliverance / Blair Witch and Bigfoot County is that Deliverance and Blair Witch were great movies. Bigfoot County isn't even close to being a good movie. As a regular movie I might give it a 1 out of 5 rating. As a Bigfoot movie I give it zero (0) foots. There's no sense of a Bigfoot even in the area. A Bigfoot does make an appearance in the last few seconds of the film. Not enough to save this flick though. This is one film I won't watch again.

"BIGFOOT" Movie review

                             BIGFOOT

                                  1970                            
                                                                                    
                         Approx: 84 min


                              Storyline

  A group of bikers and their girls ride up to the mountains for some fun. When one couple splits from the group for a little alone time they are attacked by a Bigfoot. After regaining consciousness the biker realize his girlfriend was taken by Bigfoot. He calls the sheriff who doesn't believe him and then calls for his friends to come back to help. Overhearing the calls for help, a traveling salesman along with his cousin offer to help. They head back to the mountain to search for the girl and are soon joined by his friends, a non believing sheriff and his deputy and a couple men living on the mountain with a score to settle. The mountain is now crawling with people as they search for the girl and Bigfoot. Soon they catch up with Bigfoot and a final confrontation ensues.

  The movie on a whole was pretty decent for it's time. The Bigfoots looked more Neanderthal which was more believable than some of the Bigfoots in films made 30 years later, which in some cases are horrendous. If you're a collector of Bigfoot films you should have this one in your group and you should enjoy watching. However with that being said, because of what I thought was a disappointing ending I'm giving this a 2 foot rating.

                            

Clear your calender for a Bigfoot Adventure.

Want to look for Bigfoot, but don't know where to start. Try Bigfoot Adventure Weekends. They are starting a new venture on searching for Bigfoot. They are based out of Salt Fork State Park in Ohio and Gifford Pinchot National Park in Washington. For a fee they will provide you with a campsite for 3 days 4 nights. They will also hold classes on casting and collecting evidence. There will be night time investigating and searches along with a little bit of history of the area.Meals are also provided and anyone flying in will be picked up and dropped off at the airport. You do need to provide your own camping gear. It sounds like a lot of fun and if you're new to field research this should be a great learning experience. There first adventure is at Salt Fork on June 13-16. Work prevents me from going, otherwise I would have signed up already. For more info go to www.Bigfootadventureweekends.com  If anyone does go I'd love to hear about your adventure.

"Blood Forest" movie review

                               Blood Forest

Year made  -  2009
Rated   -  Mature Audience

Approx. Time  -  92 min. 



                                           Story Line


The residents of the Ozark Mountains in Arkansas are being slaughtered by a Bigfoot. After getting word of the killings a newspaper in the U.K. send a reporter to investigate.
Meanwhile an Indian Medicine man who is supposed to be the middleman between the people and the beast is being forced out of his home by a new housing development.
The town sheriff believes the Medicine man is responsible for all the carnage plaguing his town and wants him dead.
Another low budget Bigfoot film that doesn't deliver. The Medicine man who has 10 days to move out of his home does nothing but wanders around the town and nearby woods. There is no clue as to what he's doing besides getting some exercise. The reporter records some interviews with the locals and doesn't look too focused to the job on hand. If you're one that enjoys the look of a great Bigfoot suit (costume) you will be totally disappointed. You do not see him once during the movie except at the very end and you only see his very human looking face off a reflection of a camera lens. In the Bigfoot attack scenes you get to hear a loud heartbeat and what sounds like a out of shape man who just ran 2 miles and  is trying to catch his breath.

I give this movie a 1 out of a possible 5.

If you like watching a Bigfoot film were you never see a Bigfoot, Blobsquatch or even a faint shadow of a Bigfoot and you like heavy breathing, then this is a movie for you. Otherwise avoid this and spend your money on something else.

1313 "Bigfoot Island" movie review

                                 1313
                          Bigfoot Island


Year made  -  2011

Rated  -  Unrated directors cut

Approx. time  -   72 min. 



                              Story line

Part of the 1313 production series, this movie had two things going for it. First it was shot in beautiful Vancouver Island, B.C. in Canada
Second was the fact this movie was only 72 minutes long. Thank god.
This has to be the worst Bigfoot film ever made, bar none.
You have a group of boys, young men who get together at a cabin to get their batteries charged before starting their school year. A year earlier at their last get together, they try to take advantage of a girl but was stopped by one of the boys before it went to far. The girl seeking revenge calls for the spirit of the forest to avenge her. The whole movie is watching the boys mostly shirtless one by one walking, running, or kayaking to the cabin with Sasquatch following and then exacting revenge for the girl. A total of more than 54 minutes watching the boys make their way to the cabin and then being chased by Sasquatch before he put the hammer down on them. Another 4-5 minutes of the girl chanting, Oh great Forest Spirit avenge your maiden. That's about 60 minutes of a 72 minute movie. The Sasquatch was never on the Island, all his scenes were shot in Ca. and you can tell. A couple scenes were shot on a clear cut area on a logging road. The tree line was 100 feet or more away from the boys. Yet when Sasquatch caught up to them he would swing his arms like he was pounding them. He looked like he was in the middle of the forest when there wasn't a tree within 100 feet of them.Unless you like young Calvin Klein models you don't want to waste your time or money on this movie. I certainly would not recommend this movie to my worst enemy. I wouldn't even suggest putting it in any ones collection to just boost your collection count.

My overall rating on this movie is 0 out of 5

After watching this movie I threw it into the fire

I video taped it but can't get it uploaded

I'm sure you get the picture.

"Primal" movie review

                                   Primal


Year made  -  2007

Rated  -  R

Approx. time  -  80 min.



                                 Storyline


Sasquatch gone wild. Low budget B-movie that has Sasquatch killing anyone he sees. The script was poorly written, the camera work was nauseating, and the special effects was horrific.
   You have people disappearing on the mountain and Wade the ranger knows why. His bosses don't want word getting out so Wade keeps quiet. Now you add college students doing a field survey on the animals in the area, a few meth heads and Wades sister and her fiance and you have enough food to feed Sasquatch for two life times.
  It looke like most of the budget was spent on the Sasquatch costume, about $200.00. That should tell you all you need to know. Sasquatches arms looked like to furry stove pipes. Every time Sasquatch would go on the attack, the camera would go crazy, flashing and zooming in and out. I was afraid to watch the entire movie because I thought I might have a seizure. Blood looked like it was thrown on a clear glass attached to the camera. The special effects in whole looked like it was done by a bunch of 6 graders. The ending was also very disappointing. Actually I think if you gave some 6 graders $5000.00 they could do a better job. I wouldn't recommend seeing this movie. If you're looking to increase your Sasqutch library, go ahead and buy it. But I would bury it deep in your stack of movies. The only reason I watch the entire movie was because of the review I was doing on this movie.

My overall rating on this movie is 1 out of 5.

Next weeks review hasn't been decided yet. I have a couple new ones coming and I'll wait to see if I get in time. I'll decide in a few days. I'm hoping to do Bigfoot Island.
 

 

"Assault of the Sasquatch" Movie Review

                    Assault of the Sasquatch

Year made  -  2009

Rated  -  Unrated

Approx. time  -  85 min.


                                          Story line


Forest creature meets the big city. A poacher captures Sasquatch, but before he can deliver him to his client he is busted by game wardens.
He along with his impounded truck containing Sasquatch are brought into the middle of the city for holding in a sparsely filled police station. Soon afterwards the beast escapes from the truck. After treating his wounded foot and grabbing a bite to eat, he explores his new surrounding. He is soon spotted by two nerdy members of the Sasquatch Society peeping in a window. They spend the rest of the movie trying to relocate Sasquatch. As Sasquatch makes his way back to the police station he throws rocks at one his victim. Something that's often reported, with run ins with Sasquatch. However this attack
escalates to bigger rocks, then to a tire and then  a full size mailbox. Thank god there are no mailboxes in the forest.
Sasquatch then soon spots the poacher and will stop at nothing to get to him. In the end it becomes a bare knuckle, knock down brawl between the two. 
The acting wasn't great and I thought Sasquatch looked a little to much like a gorilla. The movie was shot at various locations in Connecticut. With most the the scenes shot in the city there wasn't much as scenery goes unless you like the dirty streets of the city. The best part of the movie was when the police station secretary / ex exotic dancer goes one on one with Sasquatch. She pulls a butterfly knife out of her garder and with a police shield she kicks his ass (balls). This scene was worth the price of emission. Sasquatch does get his revenge later.

If you like to laugh you might want to get this movie, Overall I give this movie a rating of 2 out of a possible 5. Tha acting wasn't great and some of the scenes didn't make sense, but it'll make you laugh.

Next week I'll be reviewing Primal
