We Go From BLAIR WITCH To BIGFOOT In EXISTS

It's another brand new shiny day and guess what? There's another Bigfoot movie on the horizon.

Yes ...... another one.

I keep thinking that they are going to stop ..... but they don't.

This time around it's "The Blair Witch Project" co-director Eduardo Sanchez who wants to reinvent Sasquatch in his new film project entitled "EXISTS" . Here's a quote,
“The film is the first in a trilogy exploring and reinventing the Bigfoot myth,” Sanchez says. “We all remember the terror of watching such classics as THE LEGEND OF BOGGY CREEK, and I look forward to making Bigfoot scary again.”

According to Variety Haxan Films and Amber Entertainment will be ready to start work on "EXISTS" in October with filming to take place at Spiderwood Studios in Austin, Texas. Hellboy's Brian Steele will play the monster which will be designed by Weta Workshop and Spectral Motion.

Yes .... a CGI Sasquatch ....

Here is the plot:

(EXISTS) follows a group of friends who go to a cabin in the woods and are hunted by a Bigfoot-type creature.

Please forgive me if I'm just a little bit underwhelmed by that. Maybe it's because I have read almost if not exactly the same plot outline at two dozen times over the past two to three years.

Eduardo Sanchez may want to bring "scary" back to Sasquatch but unfortunately he'll have to take a number. There is already "Night Claws", "Snowbeast" , "Nightbeasts", "The Mountain Wailer", "Yowie", "Broken Spectre", "The Devil at Lost Creek", "The MOMO Monster", "The Legend of Grassman" , "Blood Forest", "Boggy Creek" and "Sasquatch vs Chupacabra" in the que ahead of "EXISTS".
