Feet of Death

Really the worst movie I've ever seen. P*rn level production and acting. I have a required character limit so I'm going to copy and paste how bad this movie is. Really the worst movie I've ever seen.

I had the opportunity to sit down and watch the 2024 horror movie "Feet of Death", and of course did so since I hadn't already seen the movie. I had never actually heard about it. But I have to say that the movie's title just wasn't great. The storyline in the movie was bland and forgettable. I wasn't particularly entertained throughout the course of the 106 prolonged minutes that the movie ran for. Writers Ashley Chick, James Chick and Ryan Stahl just failed to conjure up an overly interesting, much less actually entertaining, script and storyline for director James Chick to bring to the screen. I wasn't familiar with the cast ensemble in the movie, but the acting performances were fair, though nothing outstanding really. Visually then you're not in for anything grand. "Feet of Death" was a low-key special effects movie. Not that I think an abundance of great special effects would have mattered much, because the movie was lacking in the story department. While I did manage to sit through the entire movie, I wasn't particularly entertained. And I can honestly say that I am not returning to watch "Feet of Death" a second time. Nor is it a movie that I would warmly recommend for horror genre fans to rush out and get to watch. My rating of director James Chick's 2024 movie "Feet of Death" lands on a generous three out of ten stars.

"Feet of Death" begins with a chilling discovery: a woman stumbles upon the body of a man in the forest, mauled beyond recognition. At first glance, it looks like the work of a wild animal, but as the story unravels, we're pulled into something far more mysterious-and sinister. Set in the haunting wilderness of the Pacific Northwest, this film blends cryptozoology and murder mystery to create a slow-burn thriller. The victim, a YouTuber obsessed with proving the existence of Bigfoot, had been investigating a series of bear attacks in the area, convinced they were the work of something much larger and deadlier. His death sets off a tense investigation led by a forest ranger named Jason, who is grieving the loss of his own wife under similar circumstances. Jason teams up with a local sheriff he doesn't quite trust, and together, they delve deeper into the woods to uncover the truth. Director James Chick delivers a suspenseful atmosphere where the forest itself feels like a lurking threat, with cinematography that captures the beauty and terror of nature's untamed power. The film's pacing may feel slow at times, but it masterfully builds tension, keeping viewers guessing whether the culprit is an unhinged human or the elusive Sasquatch. While the movie doesn't bombard you with constant jump scares, the creeping dread is ever-present, leading to a final act that delivers in unexpected ways. The creature itself is wisely kept in the shadows for most of the film, which adds to the suspense and allows your imagination to run wild. And when we do catch glimpses, it's clear that the practical effects team put effort into crafting a Bigfoot that feels grounded, yet otherworldly-part ape, part myth. The film embraces its low-budget origins but rises above the usual fare with strong performances and a focus on character dynamics. The tension between Jason and the sheriff, and the personal stakes involved, give the story depth beyond the typical monster movie. In my opinion, "Feet of Death" manages to stand out from the flood of cryptid horror films out there. It's an atmospheric, character-driven piece that rewards patience with a satisfying payoff. For fans of Bigfoot lore and slow-burning mysteries, this film is a refreshing addition to the genre. And honestly, we were long overdue for a solid Bigfoot movie like this.

What do you do when you have a vanity project in mind but it's too lacklustre for YouTube and too long for TikTok? You convene your family and closest friends and slap it together anyway, using the aforementioned family and friends to pump your IMDb ratings and reviews sky-high in an effort to suck the unsuspecting into a viewing. The fact that most people (including most of your nearest and dearest) would've abandoned the viewing within minutes means nothing to you, as long as you can say "look at all them views!" There aren't enough drugs in the world to make this even a tolerable, let alone passable, "movie." Anyone who hasn't undergone a double lobotomy would be well advised to simply laugh this one off and avoid viewing at all costs.

Chris is a vlogger dies while trying to dig up dirt on killings that were attributed to bears, which he believes were actually committed by Bigfoot. The investigation into his death is personal for Jason, a forest ranger whose wife died in a similar manner the previous year. Jason is forced to team up with Ken, a backwoods sheriff whom he doesn't really like, and all signs lead to them to believe the killer is the notorious sasquatch. At first glance, this resembles the shot-on-cellphone glut of straight-to-streaming crap that's been flooding the market lately. It was made by a tiny cast and crew on a micro-budget, both the dialogue and acting are a little clunky in spots, and worst of all, it starts off seeming like yet another story about a YouTuber (which has become a whole subgenre of bad horror movies in the 2020s, but thankfully, the found-footage aspect here is fairly miniscule). Beneath the modern conventions, however, it feels more like drive-in fare from the '70s. It's a character piece that's slow and talky, the humor (mostly provided by an older ranger named Al) is intentionally corny, and it sort of subverts expectations. Also, although this is technically a monster movie, the director opted to only show the Bigfoot in fleeting glimpses, which was probably wise. I was in the right mindset to get invested in the story, and felt rewarded by the final act, which is where the movie really shines. Despite what others have claimed, I thought it was very well shot, edited, and scored. My one major problem was with the pacing, which could have been tightened up a bit. People looking for a big-budget, thrill-a-minute flick filled with gore and prolific monsters need to look elsewhere for entertainment. But if you can overlook the various shortcomings, this is a solid little b-movie that's a cut above the other garbage that's coming out these days.

How does this piece of crap have a rating of 6.4? Anyone giving this garbage more than 1 star must be cast and crew trying to boost their own (meagre) investment, because this is beyond terrible. I myself am only giving it one star because I can't give it zero. The incredibly dumb title alone doesn't tip you off to not bother with it, the low budget production value .and woeful acting should have you turning it off in less than 10 minutes. Not one person can act. The dialogue is clunky, the delivery is full of long pauses and a palpable silence wherever they're trying to remember their lines, which is so obvious it shows. They didn't even try to edit out the awkwardness.

Feet of Death is one of those movies that sneaks up on you. Going in, you might think it's just another Bigfoot flick, but it's way more than that. The story kicks off with Jason, a forest ranger who's pretty much hit rock bottom. He's grieving loss, and you can feel his pain as he tries to drown his sorrows in the wilderness he's supposed to protect. Things take a wild turn when a social media influencer dies in a weird way and suddenly there's talk of Bigfoot being on the loose. Once the hunt for Bigfoot gets going, things get tense, and the creepy atmosphere doesn't let up. Some parts drag a little but the buildup is worth it. If you're into a movie with a solid mix of drama and horror, Feet of Death is a ride you won't regret taking.

At least they came up with the most stupid title for a movie ever. But that's about it. The rest is what you'd expect from a movie with such a stupid title. Apparently filmed on an old iphone some doofus characters wander amilessly through the woods searching for Bigfoot. That is when they don't just sit around somewhere talking about some nonsensical and boring stuff. Needless to say the "actors" (if you can even call them that) are really bad only to be outdone but a ridiculous "script" and lousy directing. It all looks like some totally stoned dudes wandered around the woods and said "Let's just shoot some stupid movie on our old iphones, anyone got an idea?" "Well, uh, I dunno, but has anyone ever heard about that Bigfoot dude?" "Never heard about that one, dude. Let's just shoot a movie about it and put it on my youtube channel. I need some more suscribers." "Uh, dude, you already have 8, what do you need more for?" Needless to say, even in the category of "Brainless amateurs trying to film a movie" - "Feet of Death" is a new low.

As a connoisseur of independent films, I have watched more than my fair share of Indy horror, films, and rarely do they come close to the overall quality of "Feet of Death". I'm not sure the title really jives with the actual subject matter, but that's just me being nitpicky. Overall, the acting and writing were good, and the two leads were excellent. Then there is the cinematography. It was verdant, lush, and lustrous, with certain shots reminding me of the forests filmed for one of my favorite films, "The Last of the Mohicans" ... the Pacific Northwest environment actually turned into one of the film's main characters, which as a viewer, I appreciated. The directing was also solid, which definitely benefits a story like this one. For anyone out there who likes a top-to-bottom well-madehorror film, "Feet of Death" is a great pick for movie night!

"Feet of Death" is another entry in the cryptid/horror Big Foot franchise that entertains via its characters, suspenseful setting, and effective sound design. Set in the picturesque woods of the Pacific Northwest, the movie takes its time developing. Actor Andrew Brown plays a park ranger who teams up with the local Sheriff (Jack Vanover) to investigate the mysterious death of a Bigfoot YouTuber in the woods. Was it an ex-girlfriend? A rabid bear? Or something more sinister? The unfolding investigation leads to the unsettling conclusion that all is not what it seems out here in the woods. Fans of atmospheric horror and cryptid tales will appreciate this.
