Suburban Sasquatch

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...

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?

One of the greatest nights I've had in a while was watching this with some friends on Zoom. So hang up some tarp, put on an Arby's uniform and give this a watch. You'll have some good laughs.

Don't believe the ratings!!!!!!!!!! An amazing take on the legendary BIGFOOT mythology. This is an absolute superb motion picture and a astonishing work of art. It really takes a great look on Mother Nature's method of retaliating against the invasive tendencies of suburban expansion and its toll on the natural environment. This is all I will say as I do not want to spoil this monumental experience. I highly recommend contacting local theatres to view this masterpiece in ULTRA AVX 3D.

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.
