SyFy’s Bigfoot: Premieres June 30th

Posted by: Loren Coleman on June 29th, 2012

Syfy movies are all about fear and fun

Bigfoot, starring Bonaduce (The Partridge Family) and Barry Williams (The Brady Bunch). Airs June 30.

“I had one condition, and that was that I could beat the heck out of Danny Bonaduce at some point in the movie,” says Williams, best known for playing squeaky clean Greg Brady. (In a 2002 match on Fox’s Celebrity Boxing, Bonaduce, who played the mischief-making Danny Partridge, bested him.)

Williams knows that casting him and Bonaduce is a publicity stunt with the potential to draw curious fans of these vintage ’70s shows. “When you team Barry Williams and Danny Bonaduce in a movie, that’s inescapable,” he says.

Bonaduce shares the sentiment. “If you took The Partridge Family-Brady Bunch quantum out of this, you’d have yourself a pretty good sci-fi movie about Bigfoot. It’s just that big numbers (of viewers) are going to be coming because of Greg Brady vs. Danny Partridge going after Bigfoot. Otherwise, you’d just have the Bigfoot cult and the sci-fi cult.”

    Bwaa, haa, haa! Will there be a fight like between Debbie Gibson and Tiffany on Mega Python vs. Gatoroid? It sounds ike a lot of fun and educational for the Cryptid community (Not really but there’s the fun part I mentioned)!

  2. Fred123 responds:

    Who will be the first to find bigfoot, Danny and Greg or Matt and Bobo? I’d say that it’s a toss up,

  3. etheral responds:

    Well… the trailer pretty much sums it up. Another ridiculous SyFy movie. The bigfoot looks to be about 50ft tall…

  4. William responds:

    What a joke, the Bigfoot is the size of King Kong. He holds humans in one hand just like Kong did. The question I have is will he climb the Empire State Building?

  5. krs9864 responds:

    Quite possibly the most insulting and idiotic SyFy production as yet….

  6. Chalupacabra responds:

    The way to enjoy these SyFy movies is to do what SyFy as a network has done – embrace the cheese factor. They’re never going to be scientific documentaries on bigfoot research, and they’re never going to have state-of-the-art special effects. They’re just kooky fantasy stories, so don’t act like they’re not fun to watch. Seeing Alice Cooper get stepped on by a 50 foot bigfoot made me laugh.
