    Worst CGI Ever, But (Unintiontionally) Funny!

    The CGI in this movie is laughably bad. Like made on someone's computer at home, and it jumps and has fuzzy edges and just looks terrible. But at least the movie moves along and is entertaining. Many bad movies are just BAD, this is one of the bad movies that is actually bearable because it's bad but still entertaining. There are parts, mostly the CGI but also some of the terrible plot holes (nobody realizes these "ape like bones" could be a bigfoot?) and dialogue and some shall we politely say "less than professional acting". If you're into sasquatch movies, like I am, it's definitely worth checking out. Most people can skip this unless you're really into watching bad cheesy movies to laugh at them with your friends, and don't mind fast forwarding through the longer chunks with no funnies in them :)

    Just about as bad as it gets

    Budget, decent actors ...who knew these things were important. Don't waste your time on this piece of junk. The effects are crap. The acting is crap. The only thing that could have made this even tolerable was a little cheap T&A and that gets squandered in the first 20 minutes.

    The only even remotely redeeming quality about this movie is the very awkward profanity. It was like they found the only 7 people on the planet who have never cursed before. Hats off!

    If you want to see some dude in a bad suit just go back and look at old prom photos. The only way for a Bigfoot flick to be any good is for it to have a big budget and some actors who didn't come from Frogballs Community Theater.

    Not as terrible as I'd expected, but still bad.

    I got this movie out of Blockbuster in one of those racks were you can get like 5 movies for 20 bucks. I'd have to say I got my money's worth on this one. I had expected horrible dialogue, crappy monsters, and shaky cameras. Well, as Meatloaf said, two outta three ain't bad.

    The acting is bad, though not as bad as some movies I've seen. Or maybe I've watched so many low budget movies recently I've lost perspective. There are some bits were the acting is downright terrible, but for the most part it's of at least High School Play level.

    The CG for the Sasquatch in this movie is probably the second-worst part. The first thing I thought when I saw it (and I noticed another reviewer agreed with me) was that a man in an ape suit would have been better. Clunky stop-motion animation would have looked better.

    So you may be asking why I call the CG the second-worst part. That's because the very worst part of the movie is the sound effects. They are loud, annoying, and constant. I've been camping, I know what insects sound like in the woods at night, and while they can be loud, they're not deafening like the cacophony in this movie. Usually when the "background" sounds drown out the movie's dialogue, it's a bad thing, but from what I caught of the dialogue of this film, I wasn't missing much.

    The action was infrequent and boring. The tension was non-existent, as was any sense of empathy with the characters. Speaking of the characters, they were all cookie-cutter and bland. The only mildly engaging byplay was between...actually, I can't think of anything. There was a line or two that made me crack a wan smile, but that was about it.

    The cinematography was decent, a step or two above what you'd normally see in a movie like this. However, it still had that "home movie" quality to it that you get with movies made on pocket change and a prayer.

    If you're like me and get a kick out of shoestring budget genre flicks, and you see this one in the dollar bin, think about grabbing it. Otherwise, stay away at all costs.

    Horrible movie!!

    I have always been interested in anything about Bigfoot, so when I was browsing around looking for a movie to rent, this one caught my eye. It was the WORST $4.50 I've ever spent and I want my money back! Please don't waste your money on this!! This was one of the cheapest movies I've ever seen. The entire movie was so incredibly boring and I found myself rolling my eyes a lot and I didn't even watch it all the way through. I just got fed up with it. The acting was horrible, the effects were horrible, everything was just really bad and tasteless. It all added up to be a really bad, boring movie and total waste of time and money. I hope that one day they'll make a good movie about Sasquatch, but until then, I'll have to sit through countless cheap duds like this one to find the real masterpiece.

    Big ... Dumb ... Monkey Man

    "Sasquatch Hunters" is a very bad Bigfoot flick… Come to think of it, I don't think I've ever encountered a good or even half-decent Bigfoot flick. Them seventies flicks like "Legend of Boggy Creek", "Creature from Black Lake" and "Sasqua" are undoubtedly charming to look at, but you honestly can't refer to them as good movies. But the newest generation of Sasquatch/Snowman/Bigfoot movies, like "Devil on the Mountain", "Abominable" and also including this "Sasquatch Hunters" are beyond awful and downright pathetic. Recurring defaults in all of them are the miserable computer generated special effects (whatever happened to putting a large fat bloke into a hairy costume), the budgetary restraints and the cast full of untalented nobodies. Somewhere in a remote and forestry region – I forgot which one – a bunch of park rangers team up with a trio of paleontologists in search of … old monkey bones! But why settle for dead monsters' skeletons when you can have an actual encounter with a real (and very hungry) Sasquatch? The killing sequences are laughably inept and insultingly fake, most notably the one where our giant stupid monkey smashes someone against a tree. The cast is mostly unmemorable, except maybe for the girl with her enormous hooters in a tight blue top. Otherwise there isn't anything else to say about "Sasquatch Hunters" apart from skip it

    • Trivia
      During casting for the film, a young woman came in to read for the role of Lou. After she finished, she told the film makers how refreshing it was to actually "read" for a film. She was used to casting people telling her to just take her top off. She didn't get the part, but the producers remember her fondly. Her name was Regina Russell.
