Where is the Half Star Rating?

I've heard it said that people who encounter Bigfoot(Sasquatch)smell him before the encounter happens. If it's anything like the stench from this film then it must be the worst experience of thier lives, just like watching this flick. You've been warned! December 10, 2006

Written half asleep

The scenes were cut too fast, and establishing shots were gone before I could blink. And if you were attacked by a monster in your own tent, wouldn't you turn around and go home and not go running around the woods at night naked, looking for a hot tu-I mean a hot spring that drips cheap Hollywood? The story, acting, and filming was half complete. Our sasquatch's features (ie, muscle tones, mobility movements, jaw structure) were clearly just a man in makeup. It was honestly pretty boring.

A lackluster snoozefest with too much buildup and not enough action.

The incomparable Lance Henriksen was what initially drew me to this film. I had previously read up on all the pre-release information regarding this intriguing little production, months before it hit DVD, while I was employed with a high-end rental chain.

I wish my opinion could therefore be more forgiving.

Henriksen's portrayal, while certainly respectful, is not enough to save what unfortunately becomes a tediously boring exercise in wasted potential. Any film detailing the presence of a rampaging bigfoot should, by every stretch of the imagination, contain at least some notable measure of excitement. There remains, however, not one solitary shred of that sensation to be found anywhere within this release. The script is overwhelmed by far too much pointless dialouge and walking around. And the actual sasquatch of the film's title spends the vast majority of time concealed in shadow, observing rather than attacking.

Now, in complete and total contrast, I recently found Ryan Schifrin's "Abominable" a far more satisfying experience. That specific film debuted only this past May on the Sci-Fi Channel and is actually set for a DVD release later this year. Those, like me, who were disappointed with "Sasquatch" will conversely find much to enjoy with "Abominable." It was everything this other wretched film could and should have been and is far more worth your attention. June 12, 2006

DON'T WATCH SASQUATCH

This abominable movie has more padding than a Maidenform bra, and the bra's probably more exciting than this piece of drivel. Poor Lance Henriksen, usually a decent actor, is just as bad as the rest of the no-star cast, playing a genetic executive who is looking for his daughter (and an important genetic machine, too) after her plane goes down in the Northwest. He assembles a team which includes Andrea Roth as a supposedly sexy rival and a horrible Phil Granger as a supposedly expert tracker. There is no suspense and the director has an annoying habit of using fadeouts every twenty seconds which only add to the monotony of this grossly poor film. May 16, 2006

Unscary, Bad Acting, BigFoot looks stupid, Plots bad

I think I just summed everythign up with the title. This is just a film thats not the worst you have ever seen, but dont expect it to be much, it will let you down. February 20, 2006
