DVD Review: They Call Him Sasquatch

This direct-to-DVD feature is largely composed of relative unknown actors, but a few familiar faces are also seen in this film. Neal McDonough (Boomtown, Medical Investigation, Desperate Housewives, Walking Tall (2004) stars as reporter Ned Dwyer, who is sent to the wilderness to investigate reports of Sasquatch sightings after two hunters obtain footage of one, but accidentally erase it. Ned's boss, Stu (played by Garry Marshall, creator of Happy Days, Laverne and Shirley and Mork and Mindy) is the one who sends Ned out on this seemingly wild goose chase. Ned meets with several individuals in the woods, including two dueling old-time Bigfoot experts (comic actor Chuck McCann and Warren Belinger), a family with a matriarch who can supposedly call in a Sasquatch with her voice and have psychic connections with it; the two hunters, a camera man and a scientist and his wife, along with a rock band called the Bigfeet. A local forest dweller, Buzz Schott, attempts to warn the group to leave, a real mountain man. The search goes on, and hilarity ensues. Does the group find the legendary beast? I recommend renting this one to find out. I would give it about 4 stars out of 5. It is pretty funny.
