Best movie ever!
... View MoreThis is a tender, generous movie that likes its characters and presents them as real people, full of flaws and strengths.
... View MoreExcellent characters with emotional depth. My wife, daughter and granddaughter all enjoyed it...and me, too! Very good movie! You won't be disappointed.

... View MoreJust when it appeared that "Abominable" would hold down the crappiest recent bigfoot movie award, along comes "Sasquatch Mountain" to claim the prize. Anytime the sasquatch is an afterthought, the acting is totally cardboard, and the script spews forth with endless meaningless dialog, expect bad news. Indeed "Sasquatch Mountain" is guilty of all of the above and more. The sasquatch looks like a dirty broom, and his attacks are filmed so rapidly that you will get whiplash trying to watch. Do not be tempted by Lance Henriksen's presence. This is strictly one of his "paycheck performances". As the DVD box says "believe the legend". Do believe the legend, but skip this abominable crap. - MERK
... View MoreI am as lenient as it comes with 'B' movies and Straight to Video releases but there always comes a time when I come across a truly bad movie and this is one of them. I cannot even begin to describe all the problems this film has, but I'll give you some of the major ones. From the beginning of the film, the soundtrack is out of sync with the video. At first I thought this might have just been a read error with my DVD player, but after stopping and starting the movie a couple of times, I realized it was in the film. And I don't know about the rest of you, but when the dialog is out of sync with the video it just bothers me a lot! But perhaps this was done on purpose to distract you from the ungodly horrific dialog and acting in the film. I love bad movies, but not this bad. How they got Lance Henriksen (Alien 3, The Quick and the Dead) to appear in this is beyond me. Also, the distinct lack of gore was puzzling since this movie is unrated! I have no idea why it carries no rating since the violence and language is on par with somewhere between a PG-13 and an R rating. And I got all of this after watching only half the film. This movie takes the prize of being the very first film I couldn't even watch through to the end. Please, do yourself a favor and do not watch this movie. As bad as I make it sound, you might even find it worse. About the only good thing I can say about this movie is that Cerina Vincent looks good, after that, it pretty much ends what's good about the film. As for the others that rated this movie highly, all I can figure is that they are related to someone in the film.
... View MoreThis film has many gritty crime-drama motifs, a healthy amount of comic relief and a blown- out exposure to the cinematography to lend an edginess to the proceedings. It's not scary, even remotely but it is highly amusing. So far, this and "Abominable" (ironically also featuring Hendrickson) are the premiere features in this Bigfoot subgenre that no-one asked for, but we'll take it. For seasoned viewers of this brand of film, the presence of vets Tim Thomerson and Lance Hendrickson lends a sense of giddy fun. The two have been paired before but this time, they share screen time and each have witty dialogue. Also, the seldom-seen Craig Wasson is featured prominently (he and Thomerson both appeared in the Robbie Robertson directed "Carny" back in 1980). If you like to see character actors having fun, you will too.
... View MoreFirst, I knew what I was getting into. A made for network movie is not going to have Blockbuster $$$ to wow the audience. Therefore, it is unfair to use the same 1-to-10 ranking that one would use for a theater movie. I get this one an 8 for made for network movies. What I liked: 1.) What the film director and crew did with the lighting and camera angles was pretty interesting. The early scenes shoot outdoors have a glowing feel. The actors faces are very natural and I felt I could see inside them and relate to their situations. This helped to setup the story for me. 2.) If you've ever been hunting or even just stopped in a small town in the middle of nowhere USA, you can almost feel an aura of mystery and legend in your bones. These towns have legends and lore's with personal accounts that are neither proved or disproved true. This movie captures this wonderfully. Only dislike: Without spoiling (I hope), I couldn't really see all the gun action. Several robbers and criminals come through THIS town. What criminals would pick this place? It took away from item 2.) above. That kind of stuff seems too far fetched. But, it is a science FICTION movie and it's not supposed to necessarily mimic reality. Plus, there had to be some way to get the main actors in the same town. How else would the plot make any sense.Good movie...check it out! Hat's off to Mr. Monroe and I can never get enough of Henrikson.
