BIGFOOT LIVES (2007)

  • Most of the running time of this disappointing documentary is filled up with rednecks in camo out in the woods telling stories. Now nobody is more of a believer in the existence of bigfoot than I, but I find it a little disconcerting that in this day and age when everyone is carrying a cell phone with a video camera on them, that the ONLY decent film of a sasquatch EVER was taken 45 years ago. Anyway, a bunch of fat guys in beards drive around the country (mostly OUTSIDE the pacific northwest) analyzing eyewitness accounts, terrain, footprints (some even have hair attached). They claim they migrate! There are even body parts found: a hand (with severed fingers), a leg (supposedly of an infant bigfoot, which I found to be a stretch) and a skeleton (which we never really get a good look at.) I worked at a forensic lab, so I truly doubt they were able to get DNA out of hair samples like they claim, and with all their night vision cameras and everything they still manage not to turn up a single convincing frame of video. Don't bother. See Bigfoot: Mysterious Monsters (1976) narrated by the late great Peter Graves for this subject matter done right.
