Alicia I love this movie so much
Tedfoldol everything you have heard about this movie is true.
TrueHello Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.
Tayloriona Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.
prestigepro Not much to say here. All in all it was a pretty good movie. Great costume and make up. The acting was OK, but still a bit cheesy imo. I gave it an 8 out of 10 because I really liked the Bigfoot. Finally a cool looking Bigfoot and not some stupid looking creature that makes my eyes roll back into my head.
thelastblogontheleft This is, in many ways, your classic "found footage" movie — perhaps not surprising since it is directed by Eduardo Sánchez, who brought us The Blair Witch Project. A group of friends aim to spend some time together in the woods, staying in an uncle's old, dilapidated cabin when they aren't riding bikes or taking a dip in the lake. Almost immediately — before they even reach the house — things start to seem a bit awry. They hit some kind of animal with the car — it runs off before they have a chance to even see it — and then hear this mournful cry from the not-so-distance, but, true to the rules of horror movie cliché, they push onward, insisting on arriving at the creepy house in the shroud of darkness.The characters are nothing to write home about — truly forgettable, really, as they all fit into their predictable and stereotypical roles. Brian (played by Chris Osborn) is the amateur filmmaker of the group, always seen with camera in hand. While this might not be the most groundbreaking route to go, it does its part to help explain the main gripe that people usually have with found footage style movies — "why the hell are they still filming and not running the hell away?". Once we get a glimpse of Bigfoot and it's clear that something is stalking the woods around the house, Brian is hopeful that he can catch it on camera and have his moment of fame and recognition. This doesn't mean there aren't a few moments where you're thinking "dude ya couldn't put the camera down for 5 minutes?", but it does help to explain the urgency.Ultimately what I liked about this movie is how much it's almost more of a slasher flick than a mysterious monster movie. Bigfoot is out messin' things up in the daytime and crashing through the windows of the cabin. It chases Matt (played by Samuel Davis) — the brother trying to go for help on his bike — and it's a pretty terrifying scene. It traps the remaining friends in a camper and then terrorizes them — shaking the outside, pushing them towards the edge, and jumping from a cliff down onto them (the scene pictured above — I actually said "WHOA!" out loud when it happened). It's a freaking action star, and I liked that they didn't shy away from showing it (and that the costume and makeup were awesome enough to hold up to broad daylight shots).I don't totally get why Brian was the only one who was spared, but I personally liked the reasoning for the attacks — again, not the most groundbreaking, but it added a sad air to the movie. Not the most unique horror movie, or even specifically monster movie, but definitely a thrill ride.
alicekota well to say there are some awful movies ranked above 7 on the site and here we have a movie that initially you think is the same old found footage and ends up having a promising suspense delivery and an actual plot and is not on a higher Rank, i can throw up a spoiler here with an insight for people who already seen it, (in the ending scene the film shows the entire ''being chased by bigfoot'' actually ''Has'' a reason to be, so the movie was not the typical footage or slasher horror film, it had an actual storyline well thought and well driven to the audience giving it a nice explanation to the events on the film) so again to insure my humble opinion, i enjoyed this movie and surprised me with being probably the best suspense footage of the last couple of years.
bowmanblue 'Exists' is about a group of teens who get stalked in the forest by Bigfoot. Only, I just so happen to have seen a horror film before, therefore within the opening five minutes, I had a pretty good idea of what was going to happen every step of the way.The group of friends is like every other group of friends you've seen in every other horror film where five friends go into the woods and come a cropper with rednecks/aliens/vampires (delete as applicable). It's kind of like 'I Know What You Did Last Summer,' but with Bigfoot. They bump into him in their car and – guess what – he doesn't take kindly to the hit and run and decides to hunt them down. But, before they're totally wiped out, they crack jokes, are oversexed and generally annoying (plus you have the black man here who feels the need to constantly point out that he's black –just in case the audience couldn't work that out on their own).Some aspects of the film are 'found footage' or at least they appear to be. Thankfully not all of it, so it doesn't confirm to all the latest 'found footage' clichés that come with the annoyingly overused genre. Naturally this film doesn't really have much of a budget. Bigfoot does himself towards the end and he's not that bad. However, before that you're left with the obligatory 'jump scares' and darkened searches through the woods.If you like horror films, watch one you already own. If you already own it then you already like it. That way you don't have to bother with this one. It's not that bad, it's just not original enough to warrant a viewing.
