Yawn. Poorly Filmed Snooze Fest.

While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

Ok... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies

It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties. It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.

For a big lad, Big Foot is very adept at killing people whilst keeping himself out of sight. We don't get to see him for a while, and when we do, we are given tantalising shots of silhouettes and various limbs speeding past.At first, the tone of Savage seems to be somewhat tongue-in-cheek, with knowing performances from some of the cast. As time goes on, either the tone gets a little darker or I became used to some of the flippant moments. Either way, as the death toll mounts, we are effortlessly invited into darker waters (speaking of which, a solitary eye floating in the river is a moment that provides a perfect mixture of shock and mirth).For a horror film, this isn't going satisfy everyone, although there are some moments of gore and some tension, even if it is difficult to sustain an atmosphere of terror in blazing sunlight. For a low budget project, setting the action amidst forest fires is ambitious (the resultant fires don't look like they need much controlling), but having those fires disturb the habitat of Bigfoot is an interesting plot device.

We all know the legend of the proto man who lives in the wilderness in America. This is one of those stories. Though nasty people have started a very small fire to what ends is a mystery at the start of the movie. Unfortunately it has so unusual side effects.Big foot is back and he is in a bad mood as they have destroyed his gaff. He is not going to stop until he gets rid of the nasties and get his place back to the way it should be. In a way you could say that Big foot is an ecologist in this movie who tries to protect his habitat for future generations.Or you could see it as nasty big foot attacking people as in the Snow beast, Sasquatch and loads of other big foot movies.It is competently made and one of the better movies I have seen on the subject. It runs out of steam at the end hence the six out of ten review.

Jordan Blum directs this entry in the myriad of Bigfoot movies. A raging wild fire rips through Bear Valley National Park. Shift after shift, firefighters try to contain the blaze that has ousted animals from their habitat. Animals, critters and beasts big and small are displaced. After the flames are under control several firefighters turn up mysteriously ripped apart as if they tangled with a large bear. Park Ranger Owen Fremont(Tony Becker)was just beginning to enjoy his job in the woods after working as a big city cop. Owen is forced to deal with angry campers wanting refunds and ready to leave their camps in the park due to rumors of a sasquatch-like creature on the loose. Old Jack Lund(Martin Kove)knows for sure of an animal resembling Bigfoot in the forest, because as a child he watched it maul his father to death. Not bad; but not that good either. Decent enough to spend a lazy afternoon or rainy night with. Others in the cast: Shane Callahan, Tom Turbiville, Robert Praigo, Lisa Wilcox, Ron Prather, the fetching Anna Enger and Jack Harrison as the creature.

In the every burgeoning genre of Bigfoot horror, this goes right to the top, along with Abomination. Admittedly, when this includes stuff like Shriek of the Mutilated it isn't saying much.This was done on a modest budget, according to the director (caught this at a horror film convention) but it looks every bit as good as anything on the Sci Fi channel with the added benefit of good acting and an actual script.One thing i hate in these movie is bad CGI and while I wish they'd gone more for practical effects, the CGI used was pretty good. It's a wise filmmaker who knows to keep things to a minimum.I hope this gets a good release with a push because it's way better than just about any other bigfoot movie out there (other than the aforementioned Abominable, which gets the nod thanks to some effective gore.)
