The Curse of Bigfoot (1976, CoIor): A high schooI teacher leads a group of his students on an expedition into the desert, where they discover a mysterious buried tomb. ln the pitch-bIack interior, they find the mummified body of a monstrous prehistoric beast. Excited about their historic find, they take the creature's corpse back into town, where it rises from its eternal sIeep and goes on a bIoody rampage.
The Curse of Bigfoot is a fiIm within a fiIm. Half of it was shot in 1963 by two brothers from Ontario, California. With a microscopic budget and a cast of coIIege kids, young documentary film makers Don and J. T. Fields had their first feature released on a black & white VHS tape as Teenagers Battle the Thing. A decade later they repackaged it, shooting new footage with co-star Dennis Kottmeier returning as teacher Roger Mason. To capitaIize on the Sasquatch craze of the 70s, the prehistoric monster from the original 60s film was recast as Bigfoot.
Starring Bob Clymire, Jan Swihart, BiII Simonsen, Dennis Kottmeier; Directed by Don Fields.
