So I just came back from a pre screening for this film and I won't give
away any spoilers. I will say it wasn't that great but not horrible.
The acting was pretty bad, the strongest character was the lead stoner
guy. It does a decent job of setting up the found footage aspect but
its follows the extremely cliché horror conventions and stereo types so
its highly predictable. There's no cool kills or gore it was all really
lamely attempted and there's so many awesome kills you could do in a
bigfoot movie so it seemed a bit of a wasted opportunity. I know a lot
of people will hate the ending its pretty anti climatic and a tad
silly. My biggest grudge with the film is its a found footage movie but
there's titles and a score. You don't score a found footage movie! The
object of these films is to make the viewer forget there watching a
movie and make them believe there watching something real. If you have
music playing over your scenes it takes that element away completely.
What the movie did do right was the sound design, it makes some of the
bigfoot scenes intense but they never fully get to a level of "scary"
or "frightening". I doubt it will get a theatrical release it will
probably be on Netflix by summer but if its lucky it will get some
around Halloween in some areas. I can say though its probably the best
attempt at a bigfoot horror movie i've seen, i've only seen a few but
none have been very good. If your into low budget horror i'd give it a
shot you will find some thrills but for a veteran horror lover it won't
fully satisfy.
