For all the hype it got I was expecting a lot more!
Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.
The acting in this movie is really good.
The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;
1313: Bigfoot Island (2012)BOMB (out of 4) Beyond awful film from David DeCoteau has a bunch of topless guys walking around and there's also an incredibly awful looking bigfoot costume.Sorry if that's not enough of a plot description but that's pretty much all you need to know. This film is aimed at the gay community so that will explain why there are so many male models walking around without their shirts on. I don't mind that because, well, most horror films have topless women walking around so why not make things even? What I hated about this film as well as others like it is the fact that there's nothing going on.I love bad movies and low-budget movies but I almost struggle to call this thing a movie because you've basically got no plot and a camera capturing people walking around. I mean, who on Earth is this movie aimed at? Who is going to like watching this? As I said, I understand that the horror films of the 80s and beyond featured naked women but at the same time we were also given some sort of story. There's nothing like that here.
I have never ever written a review on IMDb. But, this movie is SO bad, I couldn't help myself. Easily, the worst movie I've ever seen. The first 15 minutes are just scenic shots interlaced with some d- bag walking through the woods shirtless (count the number of trees he has to touch as he passes by them). A whole 15 minutes! The kid could use a gym membership. Then something happens. I assume he's killed by Bigfoot, but it's not shown. At this point , I was rooting for Bigfoot to tear this kid's arms off and beat him with them. Next , d-bag's friend shows up and he's shirtless too. Better yet, there is a disgusting shower scene with him. It's clean, which is more than I can say for him. They didn't even give him soap , so he's washing with his hands. Based on his body acne, he needs soap! 30 minutes in and there have been 3 lines of dialog. 3! All fake cell phone calls. We meet d-bag #3 who also enjoys walking around alone and shirtless. Good news! Only 45 minutes left! 30 minutes in...29 minutes of guys walking and one minute of a homo=erotic shower scene.Oh yeah! More scenery shots as d-bad #4 arrives! Shirt bound to come off soon. More bad cell phone dialog. Well, I wanted more dialog! careful what you wish for because the dialog made me miss the quiet walking scenes! The woman in the movie prays to a spirit lord. Something like "h great spirit Lord, avenge me." So I tried it too. " Oh great spirit Lord, give me back the last 45 minutes of my life!" And there goes shirt #4.You get the picture. There is no reason tho watch this other than you read this and said "it can't be that bad". Trust me, Save yourself! It's too late for me!
For a series of movies that are under the 1313 name, this is one that was probably less of a plot than the other ones. Filming was not all that bad but there were a few noticeable mistakes. I will admit the scenery is breathtaking.As for Bigfoot, did not know he was ever portrayed having red fur.There is a second person walking down the road but with no backpack, suitcase or anything.As for the girl, unfortunately, what does she have to do with the movie? I am beginning to think that maybe she is bigfoot.Apparently, cell phones get great reception on this island of which I have only seen one home. Low budget but great cinematography. Sort of.
First thing is there is are some great scenic shots and locations, OK that is over. This movie has ridiculously extended walking, hiking and jogging scenes with youthful men and boys with their shirts off. One particular scene has a pale youth showering with the the cameraman scanning pelvic to head for two minutes. There was really no decent plot and the acting was horrible. "The Monster" I think they went down the party shop and rented the cheesiest gorilla monster costume they could find or just got stuck with whatever they had. To try and make up for the costume you got to see a lot of sun shots and effects to kill the HD quality. At one point you could even see the man through the eye holes. OMG I watched the hole thing thinking something might be decent, it was not. This was just short of soft Gay porn.
