CrawlerChunky In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
Tyreece Hulme One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.
Sienna-Rose Mclaughlin The movie really just wants to entertain people.
Cassandra Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.
celtic451 I thought this movie was great. Yes, it has moments where the acting and logic had some flaws, but if you can ignore those few occurrences, then this is a great movie. I thought the bigfoots were realistic and believable, and I was on the edge of my seat most of the time. One part of the movie was based on the actual testimony of a man that said he was kidnapped by several bigfoots and he offered them chewing tobacco and he said one of them just ate the entire can - and they had that incident exactly as testified in the move - which I thought was great. It's the best bigfoot movie I've ever seen. Ignore the haters and watch it!
sddavis63 You have to make sure that you have appropriate expectations if you sit down to watch this. Seriously - it's a movie about Bigfoot! It's not going to win any Academy Awards. It's not even trying to win any Academy Awards. So you don't come in to this looking for a great movie that's destined to become a classic. You come into this hoping to find a kind of cheesy, low budget, B-Movie at best. And if you come into this with that expectation, you can sit back and enjoy it - because that's basically what you get. It is low budget, it is cheesy and it features basically an entirely unknown cast whose performances are less than outstanding. It features an unfortunate stereotype of the sole Mexican character as a druggie, and it inexplicably includes a flirting scene at the start of the move as young Michael flirts with a girl in town. She gets credited in spite of the fact that she's on screen for probably less than a minute and is given absolutely no lines. She smiles and waves at Michael. That's it. The actress is named Jordan Neslund, it's apparently the only film she's ever been in and for the rest of her life she can rent this and show it to her friends as proof that she was once in a movie. Good for her. The movie accomplished at least that.Otherwise the story revolves around four guys (a father-son, their brother/uncle, and the aforementioned Mexican Sergio) who find themselves staying at a run down cabin in the woods and then go on a camping trip to hunt. And, of course, they encounter Sasquatch - several actually, and not a particularly friendly bunch!There were things I liked about this. Aside from the lifelong memory for Jordan Neslund, even though the performances were unspectacular, I liked the characters. The four guys were all very different from one another, which set up a lot of believable tension between them. That helped move things along. And somebody somewhere had done some actual Sasquatch research. I love Sasquatch stories (don't believe in the big hairy guy, but love the stories) and I appreciated the relationship between this movie and the "Ape Canyon incident" of 1924, when several miners in a cabin reportedly were attacked by several "ape-men." Actually, that story was even told around the campfire as a way to scare Sergio after he had the first encounter with "something" that nobody else believed was a Sasquatch. I would say that this was probably very loosely based on the stories of that incident - and to be honest, I'd really prefer if somebody actually made a serious movie about that incident - whether attributing it to "ape-men" or to local youths (which is the prevailing theory.) That could actually be a decent movie.As for this one - just sit back, set your expectations accordingly, and watch this. It's not going to be the best movie you've ever seen. But it's not a bad way to pass some free time. (5/10)
Michael Ledo The film consists mostly of four individuals in a cabin in the woods. When the mother dies, husband Roger (Jason Vail) drinks himself out of house and job. He lives in Uncle Will's (D'Angelo Midili) abandoned cabin along with his college age son Michael (Miles Joris-Peyrafitte) who is not exactly a man's man. The cabin has been ransacked as the proverbial logging company is entering Bigfoot's territory. Roger, who reminds us, "There is no such thing as Bigfoot," invites Will and his drinking buddy Sergio (David Saucedo), the most obnoxious Latino outside of Florida, to come up and hunt and drink...my two favorite combinations. And as you might guess, they encounter some guys in big hairy costumes.Bill Oberst Jr managed to get top billing for his late cameo role. Maria Damey was cut from the film as the older sister. Film had a hokey ending. Most of the film consisted of needless conflict within the group. A me-too Bigfoot film.Guide: F-word. No sex or nudity.
prestigepro After waiting for over a year for this movie to come I finally got to watch it. It's not that good. Bad acting and uninteresting characters. If you want to watch a really good Bigfoot movie I highly suggest watching "Exists". Now that's a Bigfoot movie. "Hunting Grounds" pales in comparison.
