Bobcat Goldthwait’s Bigfoot-centric found footage movie WILLOW CREEK made an impression on those who saw it a few months ago; the reviews were mostly very positive, with plenty of folks declaring it one of the better found footage pics in recent times. Anyone who missed it (including yours truly) will now have their chance to catch it in September, when Dark Sky Films unleashes the beast on Blu-ray and DVD.
Looking to make a splash with his research videos into the existence of Bigfoot, Jim (Bryce Johnson, Pretty Little Liars) and his skeptical girlfriend Kelly (Alexie Gilmore, Labor Day, God Bless America) take a camping trip to the mountains surrounding Willow Creek, California, a small town where famous footage of the legendary Sasquatch was filmed decades earlier. Jim believes Bigfoot exists and is intent on finding the very spot where the huge, hairy, man-like creature supposedly strode.
But before long, Jim and Kelly are lost in the woods and discover that someone – or something – is stalking them. With each passing night bringing unknowable danger, the two must use all of their cunning to try to make it out of the forest alive.
Special features on the BD and DVD include: Commentary with Writer/Director Bobcat Goldthwait and Stars Alexie Gilmore and Bryce Johnson, Deleted Scenes, Bryce Johnson’s “The Making of Willow Creek” and more.
