If you, like me, were sitting there wondering ?wtf am I watching here?", my best guess is it must have been meant to be a comedy, but since I hardly laughed the whole movie it's an abject failure for that.
Sure the cinematography was outstanding as were the locations and make up effects, mostly, (that baby was rubbish).
But what was the point of it all? It seems like it was some kind of a long running in joke for writer director David Zellner who made a short film in 2010 called Sasquatch Birth Journal 2.
It wasn't a totally stupid idea for a film, but it really didn't deliver and missed lots of opportunities for infinitely funnier moments than it opted for. How about restaging the famous sasquatch photo moment? How bout showing a number of near misses for the sasquatch team?
What we got instead was a bunch of gross out slapstick set ups based around 10 year old humor, puking, childbirth, sneezing, toilet gags etc.
And they wrapped it up in an extra layer of wastefulness by hiring 2 beautiful hollywood stars to be unrecognisable under layers of prosthetics. It felt like an entitled rich kid's big budget joke.
And the joke wasn't up to much,
