Lovesusti The Worst Film Ever
Erica Derrick By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
Philippa All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
Marva It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,
jayg_58 Not documentary style! I hate POV jiggle cam movies. Also - you get to see the actual monster. Great makeup! Acting is better than those home movie Big Foot / Yeti things, and the ending is fun too. I'm sure if this was being reviewed by a 'name your gender' professional reviewer, it would be dreck, but for the rest of us, it's a fun and not too gory trip.
zetes What did you know, there is a decent Bigfoot horror film out there! It's a horror comedy and, while it's not great at either, it's perfectly decent in both aspects. Matt McCoy (a familiar face who may be most famous for playing former mental patient Lloyd Braun on Seinfeld) became paralyzed after a rock climbing accident. While spending some time in a cabin with his jerky nurse (Christien Tinsley), he observes some weird goings-on in the forest next to his house. Soon he catches sight of a sasquatch, and it starts terrorizing the sorority girls next door. So, yeah, it's Rear Window meets Bigfoot with a little bit of a Sorority House Massacre thrown in. And it's a lot of fun! Jeffrey Combs and Lance Henriksen also pop up as a couple of Bigfoot hunters, and Paul Gleason (the principal from The Breakfast Club) and Phil Morris (who also had a recurring role on Seinfeld as lawyer Jackie Chiles) play a couple of cops. The sasquatch costume is particularly laughable, but it's funny. I don't know if they decided on horror comedy before or after they got their costume from the designer.
TheLittleSongbird In fact, I was actually surprised at how surprisingly decent Abominable was. Okay, it is not perfect by any stretch of the imagination, the special effects are on the cheesy side and that is including the Bigfoot(I think) monster, the pacing does have its longueurs in the middle and I do think the monster could have been utilised a little bit less than it was as well as developed more to add to the suspense factor. However, the photography is not bad considering the small budget, the moody look of it does draw you in, and I'd say the same for the scenery as well. The sound effects don't make the mistake of being bizarre or misplaced either. The scripting does have its weak spots but there is enough humour and suspense to make it a decent script at least, while the story is gripping in how scarily gripping it is, the suspenseful atmosphere and the increasingly violent killings. The characters are ones we've seen before and can be seen as clichés, but the actors ensure that there is some depth and likability to them. Matt McCoy does a quite good job carrying Abominable, and Haley Joel is much more than the all looks, no talent actress I was anticipating(and dreading). Then there are the likes of Paul Gleason, Jeffrey Combs and Lance Henrikssen who are always watchable in varying movies, and they are all very good in their roles. So overall, decent, not abominable in the slightest. 7/10 Bethany Cox
Ben Larson Well, what a surprise! Another Sasquatch/Yeti/Big Foot movie, and here is Lance Henriksen again. That's two in one year. Of course, he doesn't have as big a role as he did in Sasquatch Mountain. After all, he was in nine movies in 2006; he can't star in all of them.The star is Matt McCoy, who did a lot of films, including Bigfoot: The Unforgettable Encounter in 1994, and L.A. Confidential in 1997, before focusing mostly on TV, with recent roles in "Huff" and "Carnivàle."Eye candy includes Harvard Alum Haley Joel, Karin Anna Cheung, Top Model Ashley Hartman, and Scream Queen Tiffany Shepis.This film had a goodly amount of suspense, a great score, some good humor, and some good acting by favorites like Hendiksen and Jeffrey Combs.
