Bigfoot Exists

Five vacationers find themselves terrorised by a disgruntled and legendary Sasquatch.

As a POV film it's finely executed by one of the godfathers of modern POV films director Eduardo Sánchez. However, given that there's been so many POV films since its debatably needless when you have the likes of the Rec series to contend with. 

The clips and trailers steal surprise shock and value so avoid if possible. Yes it's another cabin in the wood horror as the group are picked off but it does build to a satisfactory conclusion unlike acclaimed Witch Project which built up to a single scare as copied by The Paranormal Activity series.The acting is solid especially from Chris Osborn's main character Brian but are not as rounded or fleshed out as in the low budget The Battery (2012). The effects, make up and costume are first rate and story wise it will certainly appease big foot fans. 

Script aside thanks to the (predicable yet fulfilling) story and Brian Steele who plays the creature, it's possibly the most defining bigfoot /sasquatch film to date but bare in mind the majority of sub genre is as reliable as bigfoot sightings themselves.
