Bigfoot (2006)

Don't listen to the Hype. It's awful

The story-telling is good with flashbacks.The film is both funny and heartbreaking. You smile in a scene and get a soulcrushing revelation in the next.

It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

BIGFOOT is a straight-to-video monster flick made in Ohio. The budget is even smaller than an equivalent SyFy Channel or Asylum movie, leaving it rather inept throughout, and difficult to enjoy. The story is predictable and seems man intruding into the wilderness, encountering the titular creature, and suffering for it. The plot is mostly talk and travel, the script is very poor, and there's a back-and-forth predictability to the plotting. The only time it picks up is at the big set-piece action climax in a deserted quarry.

Bigfoot may not seem like a good movie at first, but once you give it a chance it really picks up! The style of the film is done well and the actors are pretty good at their roles. It may seem corny, but with films like these that's what I like! The director did a good job making the movie a bit of a thrill yet giving the viewer a lot of good laughs. I don't see too many of these movies being made anymore, so this is refreshing.If you get the chance to check out this movie, and you're a fan of some good old B movie fun I highly recommend checking out Bigfoot!! I saw it on the big screen and seeing it with a big audience really makes the experience more worthwhile!

All indie filmmakers should be taking notes on this film as the makers really know how to stretch a budget without coming across as "low budget". Unlike other generic Bigfoot movies where the creature is looking for acceptance in society and just wants to be left alone, this Bigfoot instead will hunt you down and disembowel you. This film is more stylized than other films of this sort of budget and it doesn't detract but rather adds to the film. Don't listen to the negative reviews, these people need to understand how films are made.Think "Harry and the Hendersons" meets "Fern Gully" meets "Toxic Avenger".

I have seen Disaster movie, I have seen Manos: hands of fate, Return of the living dead: rave to the grave, The return of the Texas chainsaw massacre, Troll 2 and many other B movies, but I have NEVER seen such a compilation of bad plotting, directing and acting. Every subplot in this movie is idiotic at such level that you wanna ram your head into the wall, directing feels like it came straight from some kind of dull 60-s TV show, acting is terrible beyond believe, seriously the worst I have ever seen, in Troll 2 none of the actor knew a word in English and their dialogs felt miles better and more lively and realistic than here. Yes, like most of the B flicks it has "it's so bad it's good" thing going on for it, but this movie takes itself too seriously, so it doesn't really work, the funniest thing here is Bigfoot costume they used and seeing it first time will probably give you few minutes of joyful laughter, but I don't really think it's worth it. Skip it.
