    Stop me if you've heard this before

    An aspiring documentary filmmaker and his friends/crew traipse off in the woods looking for bigfoot for a TV pilot. Yeah. Again. It's not horrible. It's slow as hell at times, but it is well acted for the most part. It isn't perfectly written or directed but it is a cheap found footage flick. I've seen tons worse. If you come across it on Prime in the middle of the night it's ok, but It isn't worth seeking out.

    Found footage I can't defend

    I try really hard to see the good in found footage films, since I genuinely love the genre, but this film is definitely on the bad end of the found footage spectrum. That anyone would want to take credit for writing this hour and twenty minute lesson in bad improv is fully shocking. Or... it _would be_ shocking if the writer weren't also the director and star. He plays a completely unlikable d-bag surrounded by three friends (one of whom is played by Tom Pelphrey a.k.a. the entire reason I gave this film a chance, since there were no other reviews to warn me away from it) who all spend a majority of the film in some kind of disagreement with him, each actor seemingly on a quest to find out how many f-bombs it takes for a conversation to sound realistic.

    Discussing the actual plot seems almost pointless since it doesn't kick in until eighteen minutes before the credits role. (Don't you worry, though: they make up for that fact by annoying you with sporadic and irrelevant clips of the last few scenes throughout the entire first hour of the film.) But anyway, let's:

    It's a hunt for bigfoot.

    Enough said.

    So, if you're interested in few seconds of a bad boogie-man costume at the end of a way-too-long slog through a terrible guy and his three not-so-terrible friends semi-tolerating each other, then definitely give this one a try.
