Bigfoot: The Conspiracy

A word consistently comes to mind when I watch this movie: restraint. Don't get me wrong-- I really enjoy the story, I think the acting and editing are great. But I have seen enough monster flicks in which the filmmaker just can't resist overselling and gratuitously showing their creature, which usually turns out to be embarrassing and distracting. Chris is a meticulous and thoughtful filmmaker who used the creature as a setpiece for a story that goes far beyond a simple humans vs monster saga. I LOVE the message about respecting nature, and humans remembering their place in it. I thought Dante was a believable, humble character, and it was refreshing to have a leading man with a heavy past, who wasn't the trendy miserable anti-hero. And-- when you DO see the monster-- he's pretty rad. 😊 Highly recommend.

Chris Simoes creates a great mood with this Flick. I've watched several thousand "Bigfoot" low budget movies and this is one I actually watched through till the end. The director is successful at keeping your interest ( I'm a Bigfoot enthusiast so I watch this kinda stuff all the time). The Creature is not too ' in your face' but you get the idea from short shots here and there that he ain't something to mess with. The photography is spot on and makes me want to go to explore Georgia and it's untamed beauty. I love the final ending shot and the line spoken by Dante's wife. Thanks Chris Simoes for making a watchable BF Flick. Cheers !! 👍

As an avid Bigfoot fan, I felt compelled to write this review because I don't want anyone to spend timing watching this. It's really bad. Poorly done. And worse, I might have been able to get through the bad acting if it weren't for the music. As a former musician, there is a time when you need to realize that you're sabotaging an event, vibe, or movie with your songs. If you're not a pro, don't pollute a B movie and make it unwatchable because you decide to stick your punk-metal garage music into a soundtrack. Wow. Shame. I applaud anyone who makes a piece of art or creative product, but this just falls short in every way.

If you are into this subject...you can tell the creators have some knowledge, or did their research. I am not going to critique the acting etc., like others...but rather I am mainly rating this because I enjoyed it ... and was a kind of cool storyline. I basically just started it and it held my attention throughout. I have watched quite a few videos etc., on the subject of Sasquatch, because I find it fascinating...and this was one of the ones I actually enjoyed. Worth the watch if you are into this kind of thing...maybe not so much if you are just looking for another thriller to watch...though you may still enjoy it.

I really hated this film, I found it funny how poor it was but apart from that it didn't have anything redeeming. The protagonist was dull, not particularly likable owing to the fact he had zero character and his lack of chemistry with his wife was daunting.

My biggest critique was the jumbled plot, extreme lack of Bigfoot scenes, the lack of scares and terrible characters. For example, the three main agents meet up with an analytical agent, offer her no information, she offers them none and then they all leave. Why did this meeting happen at a "secret location" (where they all wear black suits and glasses and stick out like sore thumbs) I don't know, but it did. Also, why did the agents at the end break into Dante's parents in law's house and then suddenly do a 180 at the end and shoot at the rogue agent, it was all ridiculous. The director takes himself far too seriously for the tripe he keeps putting out, and the 10 star reviews on IMDB all seem to be from family and friends most likely.

2/10: Apart from some decent natural cinematography there is not much to look forward to here.
