Sasquatch Mountain

I recently viewed this on the Sci-Fi Channel. The acting, the cinema-photography, direction, story-line....boy I have seldom seen a worse film. I suppose it would appeal to some die-hard fan into flesh-eating Sashquatches. The story line is lacking a lot. The whole film gives one the impression that it was meant to be a Television Series in the guise of 'Lost'. Non-captivating, messy and all over the place, the cinema-photography too! The strange, blurred camera angles do nothing for the film. If B-movies were still made, this would not have made that grade either. Because of the messy direction, it is very difficult to get captivated by this film.Sorry, but a poor film all round.

Some movies make you think.

Some movies make you laugh.

Some movies are guilty pleasures.

Alas, this is not any of the above.

Yes, Sci-Fi Channel is continuing on its mission to re-define "Science Fiction" as "brain-dead horror aimed at 9-year-old boys who find pro wrestling enjoyable".

The plot of Sasquatch Mountain is beyond stupid. Was it envisioned by someone deluded enough to find it quality? Or was it envisioned by someone who was selling out to an idea that a substantial number of fans WANT this drivel? We have become stupid enough as a nation without Sci Fi Channel trying to dry up what's left of our brains.

Oh, yes - DON'T BELIEVE the evaluations written by LIARS who are somehow invested in the movie PRETENDING to be fans who actually enjoyed it. First clue - these people voted this movie a 10/10. That's impossible. Even someone who is a fan of this kind of lunacy would never consider it among the BEST movies around. Don't believe the liars.

This film is definitely for those who want to see all the Big Foot/Yeti/Sasquatch films.

Maybe it is also for a Lance Henriksen completest, if there is one. With over 180 appearances, you would have to watch a lot of cable to achieve that status.

Certainly, seeing the Yellow Power Ranger, Cerina Vincent, was a treat. Or, maybe you wanted to see Little Opie's real father, Rance Howard. Let's not forget to mention former Miss Korea, Karen Kim, who was one of the robbers. 뜨거운 흡연!

Sasquatch is played by Tiny Ron, whose 7 ft height has to really limit his roles. I wouldn't imagine he would ever star with Kristin Chenoweth.

It tended to really drag in the second half, and there could have been a lot less talking, and a lot more Sasquatch action.

Not a terrific movie but being a Sasquatch/Bigfoot fanatic, I wonder why every movie about this subject needs to make this creature so vicious????? There are very few documented cases of a Sasquatch being vicious. I think a more original idea would be to have these stupid folks in the woods being hunted by something that they THINK is a Sasquatch only to have it be something else entirely. Perhaps make the Sasquatch a hero for a change. Let the creature slyly give the fools in the forest help without them knowing it until the end. The whole vicious Sasquatch thing is getting on my nerves. There has GOT to be a different angle on this subject.

Erin Price (Cerina Vincent- IT WAITS) is abducted by desperate, cop-killing criminals. Taken into the deep woods, she soon discovers that something else is after all of them. Winding up in a remote cabin, along with the lawmen who were hunting them, Erin and the crooks hole up against the towering creature that now threatens all of their lives. Yep, Footy's pi$$ed, and doesn't care who he rips to pieces!

Enter tow-truck driver, Harlan Knowles (Lance Henriksen), who arrives in the middle of the chaos. Knowles has a tragic link to the rampaging beast. The rest is a game of "Who Will Survive?".

DEVIL ON THE MOUNTAIN (aka: SASQUATCH MOUNTAIN) is better than many of the scads of killer yeti movies. Still, it's not a stellar project that stands out much either. It has its groan-y, cheeeze moments as well, like the nausea-inducing CPR scene! To be fair, it is enjoyable enough, and the Sasquatch is a man in a convincing costume, instead of another CGI embarrassment...
