    No big cat has been harmed in the making of this film

    Some all American dumbsters heading out to the wilderness because one of them has a camera? The people in front of the camera didn´t even make an effort. I wouldn´t go that far as to call them actors, not even characters bec they have none. I have seen better performances and content in pre-school plays.

    Who volunteered to participate in that project after having read the script if there ever was one?

    I do understand that making movies is expensive, but this was just stunning and below low budget.

    One star for an idea that got ruined in various ways. Not sure why it is listed as comedy as well. Maybe because the sound effects that came from youtube are just ridiculous? Is it because the "actors" are so bad and the dialogues were probably written by the local McDonalds staff on their lunch break in a team effort? So many questions.

    One additonal star for at least sparing the viewer amateur sex and nudity.

    My favorite Beau Yotty film!

    I'm a fan of Mr. Yotty's filmmaking style, and acting. The pace of his films, and the details are not seen much in modern movies. In the era of instant gratification, I see a lot of story telling go by the wayside. Big Cat Trail is a character based film, that took the time to make me care what happens to them. The acting was great all around. Of course as a fan of Mr. Yotty's, he delivered another charismatic performance. Lisa Barnes and Katrina Kelly also gave natural, believable performances. The film was fun, and not too gruesome. More thriller and less of the blood and gore genre. I would recommend to all Independent film fanatics.

    High School Drama Class Better

    Wow, writer, director, actor, same person. Uh, garbage. Don't waste your time.

    Another vanity piece.

    With 40 some odd acting credits, 15 producing credits, and 12 directing credits to date, this vanity piece by Beau Yotty should have been better. He does all three here. The most irritating part of the whole film was the sound. The levels were all over the place.

    Listed as a comedy, horror, thriller, I didn't get a single giggle, guffaw, snort, or laugh during the duration of the film. Not even close. The horror aspect took up maybe 10% of the movie, unless you want to count the dialogue from "store owner".

    The camera work, and soundtrack (when not squelching) carried the load when it came to the atmosphere, so it wasn't all bad. The acting wasn't anything notable. I've endured worse in better movies.

    I wouldn't recommend watching it unless there was absolutely nothing else to do, or you're part of the production team. I really hope they did, and learned something about film making.

    Awful

    Truly awful. Any good review means they know someone in cast, lol. Over 50 minutes is characters talking, but saying NOTHING. Then they wander around, & when things happen, they never portray any actual fear, have zero concern for their friends, they even at one point tell a ranger " we're fine"... Umm, you're being hunted , 1 friend is probably dead & others missing, that's NOT fine. Then add in some horrendous special effects & hand-to-hand grappling. Almost 2 hrs i'll never get back.
