Comment from Katie Rhine, an actress featured in Legend of the Sandsquatch:

Hey… We have jobs. Well, most of us. And what exactly is your definition of a “real job”?

We made the movie to have a good time. We didn’t make the movie thinking “This movie is going to be the SMASH HIT of the season. I bet Ebert will give us 2 thumbs up!” We made it to make a movie and to have fun. I don’t know what’s wrong with that. I’m glad that my boss gave me time off.

To Mike Smith, wishing for a great BF movie.
One will be coming forth soon, if all goes right.
A different reality storyline.
I call it a classic.

Mr. Devlin,

You are correct, I, nor the other folks here commenting, have seen your film.

I guess I was coming from the position of just having to suffer through Abominable last weekend. I realize, no one held a gun to my head and forced me to watch it. However, I did feel compelled to watch it just as I am about any film, documentary, etc. about Bigfoot in particular and cryptozoology in general.

After watching Sasquatch, Sasquatch Hunters and now Abominable, I feel that it is about time for someone to produce a realistic Bigfoot movie.

As far as the Sandsquatch not being Sasquatch, but some other creature that you made up, the quotes I listed in the post were taken from Fangoria’s website and attributed to yourself, “You’ve heard of Bigfoot,” he says. “And you’ve heard about the Yeti. Well, what about their long-lost counterpart who took off to the desert? Ah, yes. He’s not just a Sasquatch. He’s a Sandsquatch.” or from websites with official info about the movie, “What’s a Sandsquatch, you ask? Why, he’s the hairless, desert-dwelling cousin of everyone’s favorite Gigantopithecus, Bigfoot.”

As far as my sarcastic remark about hardly being able to wait for the movie, I will rescind that and will accept your offer of a review copy and will post my honest opinion here on Cryptomundo after viewing the film.

Hey Guys, as co-writer and creator of the Legend of the Sandsquatch, I just want to assure you that this is a B-Movie- not to be taken so seriously. And furthermore, we are not attacking your precious sasquatch. This is some other creature, one I made up. The title is even a joke. The ditsy character in this film lets the word sandsquatch slip out and it sticks. I don’t really know why you attack the idea so much. We all seem to have one thing in common: the love of the unexplained. Rather than just criticizing what you haven’t seen, when we finish editing I will send you a copy. Maybe you will like it??? And as far as real jobs go- I love my fake one! There is nothing better than creating the fantastical for a living. Check out http://www.1313fx.com and tell me if you would want a real job.

Hats off to the site- if you weren’t bad mouthing me I would probably be an avid viewer.

-TD

I just noticed the Sandsquatch looks like Godzilla with an Orc’s head. =P

I think that Loch Ness is an excellent movie, definetly one of my favorites. I really can’t stand Horror films either, because of this crap right here. I mean come on, what are they gonna have next? A hippopotamus with a chainsaw for an arm? god… they need to make drama-crypto movies, that is what we are looking for, or even anything that isn’t so…stupid.

Right now on the film front if you look at what the $$$ makers are you see Blood and Gut horror films made on a fairly cheap budget and then they make a boatload of cash on the big screen and even more on DVD Such recent films like (Saw,Saw 2,Hostel,Hills Have Eyes Remake, See No Evil, ETC) it is a shame that now crypto is being brought in for this genere. But $$$ will always be the driving force for just about everything in life.
I would like to see a more serious type movie based on something crypto.

The tag line is the only redeeming thing about that promo poster…

“Be careful what you search for… IT MIGHT FIND YOU!”

Reminds me of that George Carlin quote: “Always try not to get killed!”
