this is one of the best docudramas i've ever seen ... it is way ahead of its time and it held my interest even in 2008.the couger attack is well taken considering the lack of special effects and the time the movie was madethe amount of bigfoot shown if just right ... not too much or too little ..my favourite part of the movie is when the sasquatch shrieks ... gave me goosepimples .. haha its a must watch for all bogfoot buffs and for that matter all people who like creature features ...

Fiction film (it lists as based on a story though it does have a "documented by" credit) about a group of scientists going into the wilds of Canada to try and find a Bigfoot.(They want to capture one and then attach a tracking device). Its lots of scientific mumbo jumbo mixed in what is really a dull film of a bunch of people wandering around in the wilderness. There are some attempts at creating tension and scares, but to be perfectly honest there is nothing here worth seeing outside of some great looking shots of the wilds. This is a perfect definition of an exploitation film, it promises you so much, a look at Bigfoot, but in reality it delivers very little. Recommended for insomniacs only

Finally available on DVD and in widescreen. The print isn't great but the film always looks like it was shot on a Fisher Price camera. Just look for this collection: Sasquatch Horror Collection Triple Feature.Also with Snowbeast (1977) and The Snow Creature (1954).A great collection! A must have for Bigfoot geeks.I give this a 10 only because it's one of the best cheesy, AWFUL movies ever made on Bigfoot!Enjoy!

Apparently there were a great many folks who thought this flick was a legit documentary and were disappointed when they discovered it was not. Merely a fictitious yarn put forth by B actors, retelling old wivestales about bigfoot. For example, (the supposedly), old mountain man, looks about as comfortable sitting on a mule as a Java caveman would look sitting on a Suzuki. But there are stunning views of the Pacific Northwest wilderness and the mountain lion attack is well done considering the lack of special effects.In truth, there are very few chills and thrills even with strange, compelling music that unfailingly announces the imminent appearance of the Hairy One.
