Frozen Sasquatch (2018)
If I could rate this movie a zero, I would
Okay, I will say up front, that I like bigfoot movies, low(er) budget movies, and cult classics like Shriek of the Mutilated, which (until now) was one of the cheaper entries into the genre, Frozen Sasquatch is just awful. Nothing about it is good - acting, costumes (looks like Friday casual, at the store-front, income tax clinic where they filmed this movie, locale (income tax clinic or someone's back yard), monster costume, dialogue, and what is supposed to pass for special effects (a TikTok. Snow filter. The dialogue is funny, not like humorous, just so bad it makes you laugh, as it is not even at a remedial middle school level. The movie is supposed to take place in the Himalayas,, which look surprisingly like a flat area of California in the summer time. The intrepid explorers climbing to the remote mountain research lab (it would have been easier to built this vast office building down lower) wear polo shirts and khakis. Despite the constantly falling snow (courtesy of a filter) there is no snow on the ground, ever, and you wouldn't even know it was cold, except the cast keeps talking about it. The monster effects are bad. So bad you can't describe them, except one of them has what looks like a fake weave glued to the actors face to look like fur, and those fake plastic, stick on, Halloween finger nails that wrap around your fingertip. This movie is 100 times worse than Plan 9, Creeping Terror, Bride of the Monster, or any other "worst movie of all time" contender. Even watching it for free online makes me want to ask for a refund.
Bigfoot Evidence: Oregon (2024)
Straightforward, genuine, research documentary
Unlike most bigfoot documentaries, this one doesnt feature whooping and hollering "experts", rehashing of old videos, and attempts to link bigfoot to flying saucers and interdimensional portals. We do get an inside look at a real evidence gathering expedition, by long time researcher Will Jevning and some of his team. Evidence is both shown, and explained, and possible alternative explanations are discussed. Some basic knowledge of the subject might be helpful, and Jevning's Creek Devil podcast is a good primer for the movie. No drama, but no nonsense, either. For a first effort, in a difficult field, the movie is a great start. There are some good eyewitness accounts, audio and visual evidence, and some really nice scenery.
