House Squatch

House Squatch is a comedy horror from Mark Polonia and his son Anthony. It's not especially funny with a lot of fart jokes many of them emitted by a dead real estate mogul. The plot is simple- a sasquatch takes up residence in a suburban home and becomes the title creature. The locals and a real estate developer want it gone because it's dragging down the property values though probably not as low as they get in the average big city HoG. The sheriff is tasked with the duty of taking out the creature before it kills all the neighbors. The first people it kills are two "women" one an actual woman and one obviously a large, bearded man wearing a mask. I guess this is supposed to be funny but is one of the worst bits in a film with many jokes that fall flat. I hope it's making fun of the absurd "trans" rights/child castration movement but it's probably just included as goofy humor.

The cast here is mostly regulars from recent Polonia productions, some of them being welcome faces, others I don't need to keep seeing. There's some kills here, all played for laughs with some gore. There's a city wide junk-fest going on, reminiscent of city wide garage sales I adore. The music is annoying and pervasive as it's almost always a "cutesy" holiday style theme or something like you'd hear in Home Alone along with some brief "intense suspenseful" music. I guess this is kind of like House Shark only slightly worse as the characters aren't quite as interesting. It's only 71 minutes though which is a relief.
