Scarecrow-88 Underwhelming, rather gore-less creature feature with no surprises concerning a Sasquatch(Taku he)running loose on Echo Mountain, attacking those illegally hunting. Miles O'Keefe is the true heavy of this flick as poacher Ed, out to get the Bigfoot and an Indian Ranger Eagleheart(Nathaniel Arcand)who actually saved his ass. Ed loses some pals to the angry Sasquatch, inlisting others in town to go back into Echo Mtn. to get those he deems responsible. The local media consider the poacher attacks as merely caused by an endangered grizzly. Richard(Dylan Purcell)is a smart high school kid who understands nature and wild-life regarding their habits and behavior but has been having trouble passing tests in class. He's asked by his disgruntled professor to join up with jock Jay(Brandon Henschel)who needs an A+ to graduate the class..and high school.. to develop an assignment on endangered species. Jay will coerce Richard to spend a weekend on Echo Mountain with his cousin Jenny(Chelsea Hobbs), who has a crush on him, and sweetheart Shea(Casey LaBow)hoping to find a grizzly recorded on camcorder therefore achieving that elusive grade he needs to pass class, hopefully impressing his teacher in the process. Sheriff Drake Kassel(Jack Conley)attempts to keep order with a mayor breathing down his neck to find that bear which killed those poachers so that locals will quit worrying about it..that, and the mayor doesn't wish for some killer bear to ruin tourist season. Into Echo Mountain with the dreaded Sasquatch shown from time to time spying on potential victims behind bushes and hanging leafy branches and uttering guttural growls when enraged. "Clawed.." is practically ready-made for the Sci-fi channel in that most of the violence occurs off-screen and even when we see the aftermath of the monster's attacks, rarely are they that gruesome or stomach-churning(..one hunter's holding his recently removed guts, another's face was torn into). There's a light amount of profanity and a peek-a-boo shot of LaBow's nicely developed breasts. The kids aren't that obnoxious(..well, except for Jay who likes to play practical jokes on his peers and hurl lame insults at nerdy Richard), and O'Keeffe as Ed, hides his eyes under a cap most of the time, speaking his dialogue under a bearded scowl. The Sasquatch isn't the least bit scary, and looks like a costume. Nothing that memorable here. You'll probably forget about it soon after it's over.."Clawed.." will hide quietly in the ever-growing number of Bigfoot/Sasquatch flicks that have increased in size over the years. Even the location itself can not enhance the rather dull experience.
j-ludolph So, I just spent 84 minutes of my life watching "Clawed: The Legend of Sasquatch" And, Yeah...I wouldn't mind getting that time back.Now, I found this movie in a bargain bin at a local pawn shop for $3.00. Knowing that, you can understand why I wasn't expecting much. I, at least, figured it may be worth the time of putting it in the DVD player.Any of you who know me, or read any of the old wetmutt horrorcast articles would know that I am a huge cheesy movie fan. Especially cheesy horror movies. I think of horror movies as an art form all their own. Something about the low barrier of entry for filmmakers with horror movies really makes for great movies. Anyways, back to the film.The story is virtually non-existent. Much like a snuff film. They have points A, B & C in the script & didn't seem to care how they get from A to B to C. The story seems like it must have been an afterthought.The camera work wasn't bad, but there were some interlace & artifacting problems. Suggesting that the camera was not your high end model & the editing system had some rendering problems. There was even a transition in the middle of the movie that was very plain and "home-movie" like. It was your typical wipe where both shots are on screen at the same time at one point.The "Bigfoot Vision" was mediocre at best. A simple sepia overlay with ZERO contrast. Leaving all shadows grey & washed out. While on the subject of the "Bigfoot Vision", I want to make a point that Bigfoot seemed like a pervert, spying on teenagers while they sleep or even taking a leak!The death scenes were terrible. Every one of them the same. Bigfoot vision creeping up on the unsuspecting victim, followed be a quick cutaway to some unrelated part of the woods, a scream, then a bloody (sort of) body. And not that good of a bloody body. The dead bodies seemed like another afterthought. Which is amazing to me since the movie has an R rating, but shows no death scenes and very VERY little blood. Sadly, some of the people you wanted to die...didn't.My overall rating of Clawed: The Legend of the Sasquatch is a 3.5. Replayability is NIL. I will only watch this movie ONE MORE TIME. That will be for a vidcast review with Mikal & KC (coming soon).The people who made this movie had some of the Sasquatch myths correct, from throwing large rocks at camp sites to having the ability to teleport. But they broke the cardinal horror movie rule...If you see a girls stuff in the film...her character CANNOT survive!
dcipledude This one is bad ! Bad acting, bad SFX (if u can call it that) and even worse plot. Bigfoot - who looks like he is made out of paper mache by a 6-year old - is angry for some reason but u never get to know why or why it starts killing people. While Harry & the Hendersons was big fun this one is dull, uninteresting, the plot goes nowhere and they added an Indian that wanders the woods to make it look more authentic .. or so I think. The movie could have been made by your neighbour and his kids with their digital camera .. absolute amateurism I'm not going to waste any more words on it : utter utter utter crap (like my English)I'll give it 2/10 because of the cool poster (for the "Clawed" version)
Diaboyos This was obviously a low-budget film but even so it wasn't so bad. I've definitely seen tons worse low-budget films. This didn't have anything really special or outstanding to offer but with the money they had to make it they did quite well. The acting wasn't too bad. The sound could have been better but that's just because of the lack of funds to pad that area. The big foot costume could have used a little more work tho in my opinion. As well, the views when we were looking thru bigfoots vision were level with the top of a car and not of something 8 feet tall lol. This is worth a view if there's nothing better on but don't expect too much, just enough to pass the time.
