Lack of good storyline.

Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.

Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.

I'll be honest Bigfoot creeps me out. It has ever since I was a little kid. I'm both fascinated and horrified by it. Living where I do and being surrounded by forest has always put the possibility of a large bipedal creature roaming the woods in the back of my mind. It's one of those things I can creep myself out on by just thinking too much about it. For the most part, there haven't been too many Sasquatch related films I didn't find hokey or cheesy. Willow Creek has been one I've heard about since it was released and wanted to see, but I had been unable to catch it on any of the streaming services and I didn't want to blind buy it. I was pleasantly surprised to find it on Shudder, problem solved. Like most found footage films, this starts out with us getting to know the two main characters. We travel with them on their journey to shoot a Bigfoot documentary and get to learn a little about each of them as we go. The two actors feel like a real couple. There's believable chemistry between them and it pulls you into their journey. What sets this apart from other found footage films is it actually manages to build good tension when things start to go awry. There were a few jumpy moments simply because of that. It also had you anxiously waiting to see what was going to happen next. The last 20-25 min of the film makes the whole journey worthwhile, even if it was a bit telegraphed and on the predictable side. It was more about the when rather than the if. In general, I'm not a found footage fan. I feel more often than not, it's used as a cheap cop-out, and that happened a lot after Blair Witch. Even if Willow Creek doesn't re-invent the wheel or can be at times slightly predictable in the narrative it's very enjoyable. The short runtime is a huge plus as well. I would have to put this up there as one of the better found footage style films I've seen. Like many of them, it has some drawbacks, tropes and annoying things they all do, but for the most part, those moments aren't as prevalent as in other films.This was definitely worth a watch and I'm glad I finally got to see it.My Rating: 6.5/10

I must admit sometimes I like the found footage genre and sometimes I don't, this movie doesn't try to bullshit you with "this was found in the woods blah blah blah" but all the same, it obviously is and has a style about it similar to Blair Witch.Its about looking for Bigfoot and the movie starts slowly, and builds up throughout the movie to a final 20 or so minutes that were shot in one continuous shot (I think) - the acting is pretty good, the directing, the storyline, the filming & sound are all pretty first rate actually.Its well worth watching and I found the last twenty minutes pretty riveting and bought into the two main characters terror - Kelly's terror was especially good.

I rarely write reviews but I will make a sacrifice for the good of mankind. Life is short and you're better off staring into the wall or watching Oprah than this piece of crap. However, if you love watching interior of an occasionally shaking tent for 20 minutes, then this is the movie for you. This is even worse than Star Quest: The Odyssey and one star rating just doesn't do it justice - this one requires poop ratings.

If you liked "Exists", this movie will not live up to your expectations. The movie is slow for 40 plus minutes, and then things heat up and boil over and quite abruptly end. Watching with a rewind option is a must.While most of the dialogue between the couple is boring and pedantic, but the exchanges with the other folks of Bluff Creek and Willow Creek are crucial and full of foreshadowing. The payoff at the end was a solid effort by Bobcat. He creates dread, isolation, and fear by using the vastness of the forest, the creepiness of the locals, and the use of all the classic Bigfoot activities. SPOILER SPOILER (all without showing any shots of the Bigfoot).6 Bigfoot Footprints out of 10SPOILER SPOILER SPOILERThe ending will leave you talking for hours and speculating. My take...these were definitely Sasquatch...multiple Sasquatch...and they from time to time kidnap females to mate with while killing any male in the way. Long gone are the days that the mural depicted...with hunters trying to bag a Sasquatch and the behavior of modern man in the forest...toward the land...toward the flora and fauna...the Sasquatch has retreated deeper and cut its ties with man...only taking women during population crisis.Solid flick.
