Suburban Sasquatch

Yikes! So this is a scary movie, just not in the good horror movie kind of way, it's just scary bad. I never particularly enjoy the ones that are this incompetent and cheap and amateurish on most every level you can think of, it's the kind of bad where you have to turn your brain off just to get any real enjoyment, and that has its place with B-movies that are actually fun and entertaining, but this movie is just rotten and it harmed me physically, I got headache! Except for making you laugh once or twice maybe, it doesn't have any good qualities. I must have caught like five sentences while watching it because the way the lines are delivered my brain just went nope, you ain't watching that! I'd already checked out mentally before it even got to the ten minute dialogue scenes because frankly the acting is the least of this movie's problems. The movie would have been better without the reporter character because he was the worst, they were all poor actors but he was a sack of potatoes in front of the camera and whenever he was on screen the movie went from a one to a negative-one, he was an energy sapper. It should have just focused on the Native American chick fighting the ridiculous motorcycle-roaring sasquatch. The sasquatch just looked so bad and cheap like a dime store Halloween costume that has too much chest showing lol. Power Rangers monsters were more impressive. It was also the writing, the mixing of horrible practical effects with even worse cgi, apparently this movie couldn't even afford to use a real net, and it was always doing that thing where someone would go outside and it would be nighttime when it had clearly just been daytime, in the scenes where you'll get people's limbs flying all over the place, in the next scene they'd be attached, just sloppy and mostly very boring to me.. In closing this is not a so bad it's good movie, not really, the genuinely fun ones aren't usually such endurance tests to sit all the way through. I'm all for cheesy horror but I'd rather drop an anvil on my foot then watch all that again. Thank you Suburban Sasquatch, my soul hurts. 🎃

I saw this at a bad movie birthday party. I don't even know where it came from. This is flat out amazingly bad. I think they bought someone with a computer and some skillz a bag of weed and then went down to Target and got the rest of the props for the movie.

This seems like it was filmed in people's front yard and like the neighborhood field. The actors seem like they are mostly trying. The story is crazy as hell, Sasquatch can teleport and I think the main character is kinda portrayed in a racially insensitive way. I literally laughed so hard a couple times I cried.

I wanted the hero to be a deranged homeless person living in a tent in the woods and hunting the people of the town believing they were Sasquatch. But alas, they played the teleporting, dimension shifting Sasquatch straight.

Personal note: When I was a kid, there was a local teenager who made his own movies. He would invite the neighborhood kids over to his house, put a bed sheet on the wall, load up the projector, and... his latest horror "masterpiece" would work its magic. Mostly, it was kids from the same street, running around, falling, pretending to be dead, etc. There was also a lot of ketchup utilized.

Fast forward to 2004, and SUBURBAN SASQUATCH is unleashed. It uses the very same aforementioned filming techniques, only now it's adults running around instead of children. Horrendous CGI "effects" have replaced most of the ketchup, especially for the fire hose-like, blood spraying shots.

There are no production values per se, as this isn't really a production of any sort. Just wait until you see the "cops"! Don't even get me started on the whole "native American" angle! As for Sasquatch / Footy himself, well, let's just say that it was half off day at the used costume shop!

Oh my goodness!

Shot on what appears to have been a cell phone, it still managed to cost over $10,000.00 to make! Someone must have eaten an awful lot of pizza!

Now, in spite of everything stated, make no mistake, this "movie" is extremely entertaining. So, gather your friends, amass the appropriate intoxicants, and be prepared to howl until your lungs burn...

I could not finish watching the entire movie, I got about 3/4's of the way. First of all, the movie is way too long(100 minutes), and the blood effects are just way too fake, I mean I know low budget is low budget, but the killing scenes are just too comical. The ape looks like a retard making comical grunts, and posturing, and the costume is just plain lame. I did love the opening credits, great job there. The acting was very bad, and when the ape lifts the cop car, that was just too ridiculous, it looked so fake, I think this film would have been better if a different approach to the ape was used, and they limited the blood and gore, the movie had potential and that's why I give it a three. Finishing a film is an accomplishment and these film makers did just that.

There is a reason why I love these kinds of bad movies. While it is terrible in every aspect of film making, it's at least done with sincerity. I've said this many times with bad films, if the director is nuts and truly believes he is making art, the badness has a legitimacy to it. It's just infinitely more entertaining when the filmmakers truly believe. Of course some people doubt the sincerity, but this movie was made well before the era of bad movie appreciation.

There is not much to say about this. I mean, I do wish they had more instances of people getting their limbs ripped off. I mean, those are truly the best parts in this ridiculous farce. Beyond that, what else is there?
