Okay, enough with the Bigfoot movies!
Do you know how many Bigfoot related horror movies are in production right now? Six….well seven, including this one, that I can think of.
Let’s recap. There’s “Savage”, “The Bloody Rage of Bigfoot”, “Trailer Park Geocachers Meet Bigfoot”, “The Shrieking”, “The Legend of Grassman”, and “Boggy Creek”.
Now the dynamic film making duo of Fred and Kimberly Ray are joining the frey with “Sasquatch vs Chupacabra”, which, surprisingly, is a monster-on-monster battle film no one else thought of first.
If there are two types of ‘trendy’ films in the independent horror movie biz these days, they are “Bigfoot” movies, and “versus” movies, and the Ray’s have figured out how to combine them both together in one neat little package.
Two of cryptozoology’s greatest stars, going at it toe-to-toe.
Like I said before, I’m surprised somebody hadn’t come up with the idea a long time ago?
So far, there isn’t any news on a cast or plot, but Ray promises to keep us updated.
I would like to take this time to announce my very own line of films, before anyone else thinks of them, “Yeti vs The Loch Ness Monster”, “Champ vs Ogopogo” and “Skunk Ape of the Bermuda Triangle.”
I’m planning on getting right to those after I’m finished with “The Jersey Devil x Mothman x Yowie: Tokyo S.O.S.”, which Isn’t as much a horror film as a romantic comedy.

Ken Hulsey began his writing career in 2000 when he founded kensforce.com a popular site with fans of Japanese sci fi/monster movies (Godzilla, Gamera and the like) and other B movies.
In 2008, he closed down his original site and created the blog "Monster Island News" a showcase for classic horror/monster films and independent/alternative cinema.
EPIC!
Someone actually admits he directed “Sea Snakes?”
This could be a funny movie with the right tongue-in-cheek attitude. Think of the camp classic “King Kong vs. Godzilla.” Most of these filmmakers end up going the “babes and blood” route, though.
The Razzies (the anti-Oscars) should give an award for “Worst Sasquatch Costume in a Motion Picture.” Think of the number of worthy (?) competitors.
Greetings,
God thank you!
With the gross over use of Vampires in modern day horror, and monster movies, Bigfoot is finally getting back in on the action! One problem though, what girl would want to go to those films with me?
Oh well you win some you lose some.
Hopefully the chupacabras pumps up on some steroids or else he’s gonna have a tough battle. Quality entertainment, no doubt!
