utahman1971 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.

Jens Clausen (Genglemt) This contains a minor spoiler, a reveal about a character which will come as no surprise anyway. But now you've been warned.I saw this horror film last night, and just found it to be amazingly inept. Even Lance Henriksen, who is an awesome genre player, could not save it.Very traditional setup of a group of people going to a remote place, to fetch something valuable. Very traditional cast of.. The experienced outdoors-man/guide. The adventurer author, who turns out to be a useless alcoholic. The rich man who pays for the expedition and turns out to have a hidden agenda. The woman who turns out to be more resourceful than we initially thought. The other woman, who didn't really have a function for the story, so why was she there? And the nerdy expert who knows how to operate the tech thingamajig they're looking for. The tech thingy is not a Hitchcockian mcguffin, it actually has a function for the story, so points for that.Oh, and there's a monster, which looks surprisingly good for a film that otherwise doesn't seem to even try. While watching, I was thinking that this should have been made in the 1950s. Then it might have some of that B-movie charm of those sloppy adventure-monster movies from that era. Bride of the Gorilla (1951), just to name one which is not good, but somewhat saved by the style of that era. As is, The Untold just creaks along, really predictable, bad performances, uninteresting dialog. You very quickly stop caring about all of it. The editing attempts to spice things up, but somehow ends up being lame and annoying instead.This one really has nothing to offer. Don't even watch it if you're a fan of Lance Henriksen. Being the consummate pro he is, he does a fine job of delivering his lines, and he makes you believe in his character. But that doesn't lift the film up from being intensely uninteresting. Skip it.I give it two stars for a passable monster, a functioning mcguffin, and Lance Henriksen. Take my word, it's not worth your time.

Dylan Cross Developing movies that are based on actual events involving cryptozoology or the supernatural has always been a challenge for directors and screenwriters. You have to mainly reconcile reported testimonies, conflicting info sources, and Hollywood creativity to produce something the audience can get into. Unfortunately, for SASQUATCH, none of these things seem to take place.The movie starts out in typical film noir when a research team crash lands somewhere in the Cascades via airplane. From there the research team disappears, and despite attempts from law enforcement officials and local rescue parties they remain missing for some time. While one of the passengers is walking, infra-red-like images are splashed on the screen (a la Predator) which subtly hint that the legendary Sasquatch is the cause of the passengers' fates.Cue Harlan Knowles (Henriksen), CEO of BioComp Industries and father of one of the crash victims. Knowles puts together his own search & rescue team with the explicit mission of finding his daughter and the rest of the research crew, along with the invaluable technology lost during the crash.After Knowles' tailor-made rescue team is put together, the entire movie traverses down the path of uncolorful characters, dizzying cinematography, and a totally unoriginal plot line. I literally had to keep myself from falling asleep during this movie as it attempted to frighten me out of my wits. The only member of the cast that held his own was Henriksen, which doesn't make up for the lack of depth presented in all of the other characters. The over-done sound effects were annoying as well; basically, I didn't know if I was watching a movie about Bigfoot or grizzly bears.Neither was the plot line all that great. It was too underdeveloped as the viewer is mainly subjected to typical fright music found in anything similar of the genre. Obviously you didn't have to be a genius to figure out who would be pulling off all their clothes by the middle of the movie, or who'd be the first unlucky soul to get mauled by Mr. Sasquatch. As far as good points, there are none, and therefore I gave this movie a 2 out of 10.

rolo_tumasie I love when people rag on a horror flick because it wasn't 'deep' or 'brilliant' or 'epic'. It's a monster movie. I wanted to see a monster kill some people in a cool landscape or environment. That's what I saw.I thought it was a good flick, just what I wanted when I rented it. I didn't want to be moved, or think a lot. I wasn't looking for stunning cinematography or amazing special effects. Sometimes a guy just wants a good old fashioned monster movie. A little gore, a little twist...that's it. Every film shouldn't be the 'Thin Red Line'. Entertainment isn't always rocket science.Good performances by Lance Henrickson and Russell Ferrier.
