Fantastic Fest quick pick
The Wild Man of the Navidad — A Texas horror movie through and through, this redneck thriller vivifies an old Lone Star legend about a Bigfoot-like monster stomping through the backwoods and terrorizing folks. Cast with a fun, fond drive-in vibe, this low-budget shocker’s filled with shotguns and sheriffs and Southern gothic weirdos. It was co-produced by Kim Henkel, co-writer of the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre, a palpable influence on the movie. Directors Duane Graves and Justin Meeks and members of the cast will conduct a Q&A after the film. (11:45 p.m. local time Sunday and 1:30 p.m. Thursday, Alamo South)

That is one freaky looking monster. Good thing that Sasquatch don’t really look like that or I am guessing there would only be a few people out there looking for this creature.
Wow, I bet that creature would give Sasquatch nightmares. No wonder sas stays hidden, afraid to come out and run in to that horrid thing!!
cliff
it looks like a mutated bigfoot
looks more like a mutated fake to me but whatever.
I would hunt a creature like that. I like a challenge.
