Bigfoot: Path of the Beast

The headline sums up my thoughts on this "yet another low budget Bigfoot film". There is a story in here, but lifting it from the script to the screen is often done clumsily, which is the case here. The hero's wife suffers from depression so he takes her camping to try to help matters, she tells him the marriage isn't working and she wants to be alone, by the time he's walked six feet away and turned back the Big Lad has snatched her and made off, in broad daylight through fairly sparse woods,, well she did ask. That pretty much sets the tone for the whole film, the husband starts drinking seeking answers and revenge, so you never see him without a hipflask and his house is carpeted with beer cans, there's a townhall meeting about Bigfoot for a T.V show(ahem!), the Sierra Sounds are thrown in now and then, there's wood knocks, tree structures, rock throwing,, you know the score. There's nothing really new here but that's ok, I've got socks as old as this story but they still work, and so does this film. If you don't mind holes in your socks you'll enjoy this for what it is, an easy watch with a mystical companion.
