Borderline worthless
4 January 2022
American Sasquatch appears to be a bunch of shorts sloppily jammed together to make a "feature length" (75 minutes) movie. It starts with ten minutes of people talking to the camera including Shawn C. Phillips who is occasionally funny but often overly exuberant and annoying. He brags about his DVD/blu-ray collection which we don't see. It's been shown in other movies and seems to be mostly common films on DVD with a few more obscure ones thrown in. We then get a found footage short with people in the woods arguing and little happening. There's a brief offscreen creature attack so they didn't have to put any effort into actually showing a 'squatch.

The next story is a guy walking through the woods, setting up his camp, going to sleep and then waking up. After awakening he is almost immediately dispatched by what I presume is some sort of sasquatch/bigfoot. You can see it in shadows and it's clearly a guy with long hair with normal clothes on. A small bit of gore is this parts only real value but at least it's not as annoying as the earlier parts. The last story is a father and son going hunting in the woods during winter. Not much happens until the son is torn in half by a sasquatch. It's a hilariously bad effect with cartoon blood splattering on the camera. At least we see a real sasquatch costume even if it's quite goofy. There's a brief "shock" ending to this short. This part is probably the best by default of actually showing a monster suit. This is a mostly worthless collection of shorts with little happening, almost no actual monster action, little gore and no real humor. A good candidate for worst "movie" of all time.
