Cryptomundo
for Bigfoot, Lake Monsters, Sea Serpents and More

Bigfoot hasn’t had the best luck when it comes to recent horror movies thanks in large part to dreck like Bigfoot: The Lost Coast Tapes and The Woodsman, but there’s hope yet for old Sasquatch. Not only is Bobcat Goldthwait’s fantastic Willow Creek waiting in the wings, but Eduardo Sánchez‘s latest seems pretty promising too. Sure it’s found footage, but if anyone can make the format work again it’s the co-creator of The Blair WItch Project.

Ever read “The Bottoms” by Joe Lansdale? I read it a few years back and it’s great. Bill Paxton is set to direct the film version. Have no clue if it will make it into the movie, but the book version does have a Goatman character in it who’s feared by East Texas residents. ~ Sean Whitley of Southern Fried Bigfoot.

What pairs perfectly with the greatest sasquatch movie ever made? Beer of course! The greatest sasquatch beer ever made at that! That’s why we’ve partnered with our friends at 903 Brewers for a big, hairy release party for their latest tasty brew; the Sasquatch Double Chocolate Milk Stout paired with a 35MM showing of HARRY AND THE HENDERSONS. Guests can purchase a 903 glass with a pour of the Sasquatch (21 and up of course) along with featured menu specials (Sasquatch Burgers anyone?), their chance to take a photo with a live sasquatch in our lobby photo booth plus lots of other bigfooted shenanigans throughout the night!

The script reads like it’s maybe a $2 million movie. We’ll start doing a schedule and a budget next week, but the idea is to shoot it right on the heels of CLERKS III (which I’m hoping to start on April 7th). It’s gonna be fun and a true SModcast Picture! There’s something to be said for the power of podcasting…
