Wuchak "Sasquatch, the Legend of Bigoot" (1978) is a quasi-documentary about a fake Bigfoot expedition deep in the wilderness of British Columbia, although it was filmed entirely in Oregon (Deshutes National Forest and Willamette National Forest). I've heard it referred to as 'the Holy Grail of Bigfoot films' and I can see why since most of the notables of the Bigfoot mythos are detailed, including the Roger Patterson footage and the 1924 Ape Canyon, WA, incident where a handful of miners were harassed most of the night by Bigfeet throwing rocks at their cabin and pounding on the walls. Regardless, it's more of a nature flick than anything else, featuring some great footage of North American wildlife highlighted by a fight between two grizzlies. It's worthwhile for Bigfoot aficionados but laid back and kinda boring, so brace yourself and remember it's from the 70s.GRADE: C+

Brian T. Whitlock (GOWBTW) Reading about it as a kid, been fascinated as a kid, the legendary creature known as the Sasquatch aka "Bigfoot" has been on my mind for the longest of times. My mother gave me a book about this creature. I would have seen this movie as well. It was kid friendly. In some parts. The moaning sounds of Bigfoot didn't quite scare me back then. But the presence of it made me wonder, will it strike here? King Kong hit New York. This creature lives in the deep woods of the Northwest. His stench could be smelled a mile away. Speaking of New York, there's a photographer who is the biggest skeptic of the bunch. His negativity, and hatred of the outdoor living has been crutch. But after the incident of the cougar and other wildlife, he got to respect the outdoors more. It is very intriguing when they got a shot of Bigfoot in action. It appears that the men aren't here to hunt it, but to understand it. The creature can tear down trees like if they're cardboard figures. A bear doesn't have that strength. It wouldn't last against the Sasquatch! Nowadays, there are these "Bigfoot Hunters" who do anything for money. That's not right. Watch this movie, you be the judge! 4.5 out of 5 stars.

kingd-4 Ahah! Were my exact words when I concluded watching this epic. Bigfoot is real and he will be captured. Man, the high tech stuff they were using, no wonder they were so correct with their predictions! They did a great job with the creature costumes too!! Hell this movie is good for a kick when you are so bored you can't stand it though. All you need is a 6 pack and a vivid imagination. Some of the acting is horrible and the stunts are tacky, but what the hell, this one is great if you want focus on the north American Bigfoot creature and not the Yeti. I just wish they would have cut out some of that ridiculous footage of wildlife and put more Bigfoot stuff in there. Plus their accuracy on the two "tales" they told deviates from what is documented. I think they should have included the Albert Ostmann story in there too.

Vincent Apparently there were a great many folks who thought this flick was a legit documentary and were disappointed when they discovered it was not. Merely a fictitious yarn put forth by B actors, retelling old wivestales about bigfoot. For example, (the supposedly), old mountain man, looks about as comfortable sitting on a mule as a Java caveman would look sitting on a Suzuki. But there are stunning views of the Pacific Northwest wilderness and the mountain lion attack is well done considering the lack of special effects.In truth, there are very few chills and thrills even with strange, compelling music that unfailingly announces the imminent appearance of the Hairy One.
