Manbeast! Myth or Monster? (1978)
** (out of 4)
This here is a rather cheaply produced documentary that takes a look at the various Bigfoot legends and tries to prove whether they are just a myth or if perhaps there's a real monster out there that has yet to be captured. If you're a fan of Bigfoot like I am then you probably know that the Golden Era for films and documentaries were the 1970's. With the success of THE LEGEND OF BOGGY CREEK we were given all sorts of documentaries and other television episodes that took a look at the legendary creature. This one here isn't nearly one of the best as there's really nothing here that we haven't seen in previous films. Like previous films, this one here tries to work as a teaching tool but there are also some re-enactments. I will say that I thought the Bigfoot costumes looked good but the direction just isn't all that impressive and none of the re-enactments really come to life.
