Entertaining from beginning to end, it maintains the spirit of the franchise while establishing it's own seal with a fun cast

The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.

It is not a too exciting movie to watch but this is nothing close to blair witch project. Also, TBWP was a terrible movie. Not good as people say it is. That movie made me want my money back after watching in the theater. At least this one is watchable compared to TBWP. So sick of people comparing terrible movies that are actually better.Predator is an awesome movie, and to even put it with TBWP and this one is blasphemy. So what is up with people and the stupid bad reviews? They just have no clue what is good or bad. Most reviews on this site are bad reviews. I still think Troll and Troll 2 are the worst movies out there. At least I watched it on television and not as bad as others say.

Hmm, How could I best describe 2003's "Sasquatch" (originally titled "The Untold")? If you can imagine a low budget version of both "The Edge" and "Predator," substituting a Bigfoot for the bear and alien, with some elements of "The Blair Witch Project" thrown in, you'd pretty much have "Sasquatch." The story involves a plane crash in Bigfoot territory and the group of people who search for the wreckage. As a matter of fact, the ENTIRE FILM takes place in the forest except for flashbacks, shot in British Columbia near Vancouver.I'm kind of a sucker for these types of crisis-in-the-woods stories, so I have to admit that I marginally liked "Sasquatch," especially since the tone is totally serious. The film is marred a bit by some strange directorial techniques; particularly the irritating overuse of the 'fade-to-black' technique. Moreover, some of the characters and dialogue come off unbelievable.On the plus side, the tone is serious and the filmmakers throw in a literal 'babe in the woods'; and, yes, she does have a nude hotspring scene (not that you see much, so don't get too excited), but the character's too much of a biyatch to be appealing and the actress, Andrea Roth, isn't THAT attractive anyway, at least not to me (the older woman who plays Nikki is actually more of a babe). Lance Henriksen is always good, of course; and some of the BC locations are quite scenic. I also liked the ending as it was more profound and moving than anticipated, but there's too much marking time; the film could've easily been cut by 15 minutes.But, you ask, what about the appearance of the creature? In other words, is the 'payoff' any good? I kinda liked what they came up with, although it appears as if one of the beast's ancestors mated with Ben Franklin. Just joking; it's not the conventional look of the creature, but it's pretty cool.This is not a great bigfoot flick; it's not even very good. In fact, it's one of the lesser recent SyFy films on Sassy (discounting the abysmal "Yeti: Curse of the Snow Demon" and that one with 'Greg' from The Brady Bunch and that other guy from The Partridge Family). But if you're a fan of the creature or a sucker for these types of stories, "Sasquatch" is mandatory.The film runs 86 minutes.Here's how I rate the various bigfoot flicks since the new millennium (see my reviews of each for details):"Sasquatch Mountain" (2006): A- "Sasquatch Hunters" (2005): B+"Abominable" (2006): B"Snowbeast" (2011): B- "Clawed" (2005): C+ "Sasquatch" (2003): C"Yeti: Curse of the Snow Demon" (2008): F

This looks decidedly like "the amateur" hour. How this piece of trash was ever released is beyond me: the acting, the story, the characters, the supposedly special effects, etc...it's ALL wrong. Why Lance Henriksen accepted this will remain one of the great mysteries of cinema. Maybe he was in dire need for money or maybe be was under the influence of some illegal drug.It is pointless trying to explain you what this movie's about. It deals with the big foot legend but done in the worst possible manner. In fact, this stinker smells like a direct-to-video release.Avoid at ALL costs! 0* out of 10*

Harlan Knowles (Lance Henriksen) brings a group of people to a mountain to help find his missing daughter (Erica Durance). What they don't know is that she was killed by a sasquatch (Taras Kostyuk) and it's still out there... waiting for them.It was a late night when I poped this into my DVD player. I seriously wish I could go back in time and stop me. Most people will tell you that films like "House of the Dead" or "S.I.C.K: Serial Insain Clown Killers" will be the movies you wish you've never seen. Wrong. This will be.I've seen a lot of crap, but this is the only crap that's haunted me. How I wish I never watched this! The acting actually isn't so bad. It's just the writing and the directing and the pacing and everything! I am actually a fan of Sasquatch films. But not this one.Please, listen to my warning. Don't watch this!
