Double-entendre: A word or phrase having a double meaning; the use of such a word or phrase.
Here’s my double-entendre for the month: trailers.
Below is the video trailer to the forthcoming documentary by writer/director Sean Whitley, Southern Fried Bigfoot. As a trailer, you will note it does not have CG identifications of the people being interviewed. But I have a feeling many of you will know who all of these guys being interviewed are.
Trailers are teasers to encourage people to come watch the whole film. I think you will be intrigued by what you see.
Within this trailer, I was pleasantly surprised to find my Cryptomundo partner talking about the other kind of trailers, the ones their salespeople like to call mobile homes.
Orgone accumulators (such as the one pictured above) have designs similar to trailers, and yet the rumor that they cause uncontrollable erections probably is only a myth. Anyway, it probably doesn’t have anything to do with why people live in trailers, of course. Right? From having lived in trailers myself, I know that folks in trailers have to have a sense of humor, because you never can tell when the next tornado is going to “pick” you. Indeed, when my father passed away, he had made a conscious decision to give up a house and live in a trailer, so he could be closer to nature. I respect the reasons for why people choose trailers.
In my “Sex and the Single Sasquatch” lectures for years, I’ve been mentioning that it does seem some Bigfoot are attracted to trailers, almost as if the design of mobile homes and RVs parallel the construction of Orgone accumulators (a/k/a Orgone boxes), which are suppose to be sexual-energy-generating or -collecting containers. Are Sasquatch getting a sexually-related vibe from trailers, almost like an energy beacon that is drawing them nearer? I can think of several encounters near such objects, including the famed “Playmate Video,” later to be called the “Redwoods Video,” taped near a RV.
Who knows?
The halfway point in the post-production on Southern Fried Bigfoot is celebrated in the erection of this trailer on YouTube, but there’s no telling how long it will be before the film finds its release.
Thanks SMiles and Sean.
About Loren Coleman
Loren Coleman is one of the world’s leading cryptozoologists, some say “the” leading living cryptozoologist. Certainly, he is acknowledged as the current living American researcher and writer who has most popularized cryptozoology in the late 20th and early 21st centuries.
Starting his fieldwork and investigations in 1960, after traveling and trekking extensively in pursuit of cryptozoological mysteries, Coleman began writing to share his experiences in 1969. An honorary member of Ivan T. Sanderson’s Society for the Investigation of the Unexplained in the 1970s, Coleman has been bestowed with similar honorary memberships of the North Idaho College Cryptozoology Club in 1983, and in subsequent years, that of the British Columbia Scientific Cryptozoology Club, CryptoSafari International, and other international organizations. He was also a Life Member and Benefactor of the International Society of Cryptozoology (now-defunct).
Loren Coleman’s daily blog, as a member of the Cryptomundo Team, served as an ongoing avenue of communication for the ever-growing body of cryptozoo news from 2005 through 2013. He returned as an infrequent contributor beginning Halloween week of 2015.
Coleman is the founder in 2003, and current director of the International Cryptozoology Museum in Portland, Maine.
