Sasquatch Sunset (2024)

April 26, 2024 5:30 AM

A year in the life of a unique family.

Full disclosure - I am the poster but I have not seen this. However, the fact that this even got made is fascinating me greatly and I'm dying to hear what others who've seen it think.

(.....Did I mention this is a live-action film about a family of Sasquatches, with the entire cast of four in hairy suits the whole time?)

I saw it at SXSW and many, many in the audience walked out. No dialogue, just grunts. Waste of time.

Actually this makes me like it more. Even though it is kind of Quest for Fire-ish.

It looks like it might be fun, but given how little I cared for Damsel (which I don't think I made it fifteen minutes into), I would need some positive word of mouth from nerds here or on other places I track movies to give this a shot. They have made some other stuff I haven't seen that is supposed to be good, though.

For those of us who watched The Bear, we're ready.

Someone I know saw it last week and says that while it felt like kind of a "what the fuck am I watching right now" waste of time while she was watching it, with a few gross-out moments, she's kept thinking about it since and is recommending it to friends mostly to see what they think.

Yes, but what was the film like?

The Zellners seem to have a Sasquatch thing - they have an early short film Sasquatch Birth Journal 2, it's on Vimeo.
