Movie Reviews of Sasquatch HuntersMovie Review: The most enjoyable movie I've seen in a long time Summary: 5 Stars
When I say that this movie was enjoyable, let me make clear that "enjoyable" is pretty different from "good." This movie is so amazingly bad that I loved every second of it.
It begins with three streotypically redneckish guys stumbling around a forest, tossing some horrible fake redneckish accents around. These three don't really contribute to the story at all, although in a better movie they would probably "set the stage" for Bigfoot's rampage later on, or something.
The rest of the movie is a combination of several elements:
-Long, extended shots of trees, or trees with people walking through them, accompanied by 30 seconds of very 'Free Willy'/typical-epic-journey-ish music played on a loop for about 5 minutes.
-A scene between two female characters meant to show their sympathy towards each other in a time of despair, but which comes across as very sexually tense
-A token hot chick taking a shower, for no real purpose
-15 minutes of shots of talking heads around a campfire discussing the Bigfoot, which could have been condensed into about 15 seconds.
--Spectacular, incredible, blockbuster special effects are something of which this movie is completely devoid. They're downright funny.
-Lots of swears thrown in to compensate for the movie's lack of anything interesting
-Some actor named Matthew Tait running around in what looks like a big, black shag rug with a gorilla mask
-A final stand-off which several Sasquatch in which the heroine gets very realistically thrown about 500 feet, only to be caught deftly by the hero, who proceeds to shoot 3 previously-nearly-indestructable Sasquatch dead in their tracks, suddenly becoming an expert marksman after missing the 823 previous times.
-A last line of dialogue in which one of the leading characters calls the heroine, Helen, "Debbie" for no real reason. I was wondering about this line for a while; if the name "Debbie" had ever popped up in the movie before, that would have been one thing, but it hadn't.
-An eerie final shot of what must be Sasquatch burying their dead, although it just shows some dirt being tossed on another heap of dirt. I think the point is that the Sasquatch are laying in wait for 'Sasquatch Hunters II', but it's hard to be sure.
I could go on, but the point is, you need to buy this movie, invite over some friends, and watch it for yourself. I consider it a roaring success, although I doubt my opinion towards the movie is anything like what the directors would hope for.
This is one of my new favorite films.
