Better than most.

Pretty good for a low budget B movie in the Bigfoot genre. It is funny, serious, suspenseful-what more can you ask for? Acting is not painfully bad as in some low budget 70's movies, and is actually pretty good, though it was a little gory and violent in several scenes. I would not let children watch it, especially if you are planning a camping or hiking trip in the near future ! I thought that compared to Legend of Boggy Creek for instance, it was a lot more entertaining. And one hundred percent better than Boggy Creek II. Mystery Science Theater's Boggy Creek II is pretty funny and worth watching. All I can say is, watch it!

A Fun Bigfoot Film

Nostalgic / Retro value with this one. There we quite a few of these "Bigfoot" films that came out during the 1970s "Bigfoot" craze! This is one of the better one's that was produced during that decade - maybe not the best one made, but it is a fun watch.A couple of college kids from Chicago are interested in the bigfoot stories coming out of the south. They pack up and head down to Oil City, Louisiana hopped up to find the truth. They end up meeting a few rednecks that refuse to speak of the creature... but a couple of them opened up. I won't give away the ending but I will say - they do encounter the bigfoot.6/10
