Dead Bigfoot: A True Story
Posted by: Craig Woolheater on September 9th, 2013
In October of 2010, 2 young hunters shot a 7 foot tall animal they could not identify. It stood upright and walked like a man. This movie, Dead Bigfoot: A True Story, chronicles the events that followed the shooting in an attempt to learn more about the hunters involved and the alleged creature they killed.

Lets cut to the meat of the matter, if you’ll excuse the pun. If some one had actually shot and killed a Bigfoot, the very least that could be done to verify this claim would be to procure a sample of the carcass for authentication. Certainly hunters, being used to gutting and cleaning their kill in many cases should have had no difficulty in saving a pertinent piece of this animal.
I’m not talking about a “steak” as we have heard of before but if not the entire head or hand or big-foot, a finger or toe would do nicely. Even a single tooth would yield all of the important markers and information needed to scientifically justify that such an animal as Bigfoot actually exists. Why wasn’t this done? The answer is obvious, not necessarily that Bigfoot doesn’t exist but, they didn’t really kill one at all and are trying ride the current wave of Bigfoot popularity for monetary gain. Well, as ole PT Barnum once said…there’s one born every minute. Hell, if I hear the movie is very good, I’ll go see it too.
And the confusing story begins to make sense. If a movie can be made and distributed then the inconsistent story can be turned into cash by cashing in on America’s fascination with reality entertainment.
Wasn’t that proved to be bear meat?
Allen Hopkins:
I believe it was from a bear arm. And I firmly believe in the right to bear arms.
Yeah, right… A movie based on the true story of some guys killing a Bigfoot… Why can’t I believe it? Oh, yeah, this is entertainment, not Science!
