I beleive this film should be given a prod tag. It does not meet notability requirements of WP:NOTFLLM and should be nominated for deletion. Barton Foley (talk) 17:18, 12 September 2008 (UTC)Reply

This film deals with aspects of popular culture, namely the Bigfoot, and is one of very few such films to deal with this topic in this manner. The film has a large IMDB entry, which I wouldn't class as an "unacceptable 2ndary source". And of course it wouldn't have featured on any documentaries on the history of cinema, it is only two years old. Whilst I agree that some of these arguments are fair, many of these others are not in my opinion. This may certainly not be a major film, but does that really mean its article should be deleted? I really don't think so. {Midnightblueowl (talk) 18:29, 12 September 2008 (UTC)}Reply

First paragraph of plot spelling error edit

it reads

A farmer and his wife awaken in the middle of the night. They live in a cabin in the middle of the woods, alone. The husband arms himself with his gun and he and his wife venture outside to investigate the strange noise. They discover one of there cattle violently ripped open, and the farmer notes "...no bear could do that..". THERE dog then runs off into the woods, and a frightening grunt is heard and the dog whimpers. The couple flees inside and cower behind the door. They see the shadow of a large, hairy creature walk past the windows and up to the door there hiding behind. The mysterious creature grunts and walks away. After they are certian its gone, they venture outside once more to discover large footprints, left by the creature.


when it should read:

The husband arms himself with his gun and he and his wife venture outside to investigate the strange noise. They discover one of there cattle violently ripped open, and the farmer notes "...no bear could do that..".

Money edit

Why no "Budget" or "Box office" financial info listed?

Just curious. 68.2.114.117 (talk) 06:23, 6 December 2019 (UTC)Reply
