Customer ReviewsGreat and fair assessment of the subject matter
Rating Point :4 Helpful Point :0
This documentary, originally aired in 1994 on A&E, was very well-done and was very fair as to its assessments of the Bigfoot Mystery. Luminaries in the Bigfoot field such as the late Dr. Grover Krantz, Peter Byrne, Scott Herriott, Al Hodgson and Roderick Sprague are interviewed about their research and their opinions on the hunt for these elusive creatures. Byrne was running the Bigfoot Research Project at that time out of Parkdale, Oregon, and is shown in the field investigating a sighting. Dr. Krantz is shown in his lab at Washington State University with his footprint casts and his Gigantopithecus model based on the jawbone of the mystery primate. Herriotts video (along with Darryl Owens) are both shown, as is the Patterson/Gimlin Movie, with narration from Gimlin. Skeptical scientist John Crane is also interviewed about his opinions on the subject. This version is slightly different from the original, with Leonard Nimoy (In Search Of...) as the narrator, and some clips are edited a little differently, but overall it is the same one seen in 1994. It ends in Willow Creek, California during the Bigfoot Daze celebration with different townspeople giving their assessments of the reality of the creature, as well as the cultural influences Bigfoot has had through the years. I do recommend this documentary for anyones Cryptozoology collection.
The Best DVD on Bigfoot, if You Choose to Believe It
Rating Point :4 Helpful Point :0
This DVD traces the beginning of Bigfoot in the late 1950s till the mid 1990s (but does not include the Freeman footage). I have to admit, it will make you think about what might be out there. I have had a hard time accepting this entire legend, but this DVD presents it in the best possible way. BOTH sides are looked at - why some think its a real thing, and others that thinks its a comical hoax. It does analyze the famous 1967 Patterson/Gimlin film of the "female" Bigfoot in northern CA, and does point out things I never noticed in it - making it almost seem real. It does show the Scott Herriott/Daryl Owen film of the Bigfoot looking them down at a mere 35 feet away, although its thru thick bushes (and is almost spooky).
If you do or do not believe in this, it is worth a look. My personal belief is that it is not real - how can almost 2000 of these things (according to the DVD) be alive and we only have a few shaky. blurry, far away videos and footprints of it - nothing more? You be the judge.
Bigfoot Fundamentals
Rating Point :4 Helpful Point :1
This is a fun DVD to watch. There isnt a lot of new information in the piece, but the fundamentals of this mystery/legend are well represented. Decades after it was shot, I am still floored by the Patterson/Gimlin footage.
Compelling Evidence
Rating Point :5 Helpful Point :0
This Ancient Mysteries investigation into the myth of Bigfoot,is truely
compelling. The best evidence that has been found to date, has been compiled into one video.
Narrated by Leonard Nimoy,A&E presents the most comprehensive investigation of Bigfoot ever produced. Utilizing an inovative, high-tech
approach, todays anthropologists offer a fresh perspective on hard evidence as presented through archival footage,computor analysis,and modern eyewitness video.
This video is aprox 50 minutes long and is impressive.
You will see Bigfoot through the eyes of ancient Indian myth, eyewitness accounts,photographs and plaster casts.
This dvd has more evidence in my opinion that the Sasquach OdessyThe hunt for Bigfoot
Well worth the few dallors that you will spend on this movie.
Great Production All Around!
Rating Point :4 Helpful Point :0
When I give a rating of four stars, it means there is very little room for much better or improvement. (5 stars IMB is reserved for the very rare, best of the best). Dont let the price of this DVD for 50 minutes of Bigfoot stop you in this case. I love the narration with Leonard Nimoy in this version. The narration is the same word for word as the original TV released version. Only better IMO with LNs voice. You get top notch stories, history and examination of bigfoot extending over 125 years. This is a high quality production with great re-watchability. Feels like more than 50 minutes as you view this too. Just wish it would never end. Highly Recommended.
