This was a bust alright.
Of course, when I sat down to watch the 2022 comedy "Bigfoot or Bust", I wasn't really harboring much of any hopes or expectations to the movie. I mean, just look at the catch phrase on the movie's cover/poster; "the breast bigfoot movie ever made!". If that isn't an indicator of bad taste, then I don't know what is.
But I still opted to watch "Bigfoot or Bust", on the account that it might possibly actually be a comedy worth watching, or at least a movie so bad that it becomes enjoyable to watch. But that was not the case in either instances. Writer and director Jim Wynorski delivered one of the most infantile and ridiculous movies I have ever sat down to watch. And believe you me, I have seen my share of dubious movies. But "Bigfoot or Bust" definitely is top contender for being one of the worst movies I have suffered through.
The storyline is essentially non-existing, unless you consider a handful of mature, scantily clad women with toy guys prowling the wilderness to track a guy in a costume that must have been bought off of Wish as being entertainment. That hardly constituted being enjoyable entertainment for me, so this movie was a massive swing and a miss. Especially since it was hardly more than just having the mature women doing random dancing, jumping on a trampoline, splashing water and such on themselves throughout the course of the movie. Not only was it embarrassing to witness, but it was also just a waste of film and time.
As for the acting performances in the movie, well, let's just say that you shouldn't be betting your hard-earned money on this.
Sure, I wasn't expecting much in terms of a proper creature in the movie, but a costume so horrible fake and seeming like something imported from the Wish shopping page, was just laughable beyond belief. It was so ridiculously bad to witness.
The positive thing about "Bigfoot or Bust" is that it definitely looked like the cast and film crew were having fun filming and participating in this hideous thing of a movie.
My rating of "Bigfoot or Bust" lands on a one out of ten stars. And this is definitely not something I would recommend you waste your time, money or effort on. It is just unfathomable to comprehend how something like this ever gets to see the light of day.

A horrible movie. Horrible. And there is no other word to describe it.
Badly shot, with an amateur montage, and sequences that have no logic, randomly placed throughout the film.
This movie stars old softcore actresses who believe they are still sexy at 50. Unfortunately for them, no.
Perhaps with younger actresses and a few more topless (there is not even a nudity scene throughout all the movie) could was be better, but the problem is general.
There's not a single idea to tell something, the dialogues are simply dumb and the Bigfoot is ridicolous.

If you ever wondered what it would look like if your grandmother and her friends from the nursing home fought a man in a horrible Halloween Bigfoot costume, you just hit the jack pot. Now if you also wanted to see those grandmas exploited , congrats, you just hit double jack pot. Remember when movies took talent and craft? Heck with that, now just rent a crappy camera and a pathetic costume and start shooting. Who cares, right? That should have been the name of the movie. "Screw it, this dumpster fire is probably someone's fetish. " , someone producer probably said. Also, why do these IMDb reviews have to be so long now?

I commend the producers of this flick for giving senior citizens starring acting roles. However, please not in bikinis and daisy dukes.
Go back and watch "The Man Show." Much better girls on trampolines...

No plot worth wasting time on. The women are way too old, flabby and gross to be "hot" in a movie like this. Looks like mid-life crisis on film. Bigfoot is a dude in a bad costume who goes around chasing people. These old ladies are hunting it even though this looks like the first time they ever held a weapon. Like flab on a trampoline?
They could have done better making Big Foot look more realistic. Unfortunately the best thing about the movie was seeing the busty women of which most of them were beautiful prancing around showing off their wares. Other than that the movie was a waste of time.
I thought I was settling in to watch a campy and funny movie, but what I got was a bunch of great grandmas covered in a wrinkle in time.......in fact......a lot of wrinkles in time......in costumes that would make their grandkids cringe and change their names. There's absolutely nothing redeemable about this movie to recommend it for anyone to watch.
The canned laughter is annoying and the costume of the bigfoot is so bad that at times you can see the straps that tied it together in the back, it's about the quality one would expect to get at Target. I'm willing to bet that every actress in this movie was alive when the US flag had fewer than 48 stars....yes they're that old.

I rarely review anything online, but clearly IMDb is in need of an opinion from someone who actually enjoys this type of material.
Jim Wynorski still has it. Perhaps "casual viewers" may not know what they've got themselves into, but for fans of his work, this one is a real treat. It's chock full of hilarious one-liners and perfect comedic timing. Seeing these actresses continue to appear in his films today (especially with a sense of self-awareness) warms my heart. They are so much fun to watch and have genuine chemistry together. From the cut-aways, to the montages, to the cameo from the Director himself, this felt like a classic Wynorski flick in every sense and I'm glad that he's still doing what he does best. I haven't laughed this much in a long time and recommend this film to fans of his early 90s material.

Straight to the Hall of Fame of Intentionally Campy Movies! Just don't take it too seriously for one minute or you'll be disappointed. Finely matured busty actresses making a fine parody of spaghetti westerns as well as themselves.

This movie is awesome. Beautiful women, hilarious situations, great improvised dialogue and the story keeps moving forward. I'm a huge fan of Becky Lebeau, Christine Nguyen, Lisa London, Rocky DeMarco, Cindy Lucas, and of course, Jim Wynorski, the auteur behind countless horror, sci-fi and soft core porn movies dating back to my favorite: Forbidden World (1982). It's shot on video like so many movies back in the eighties and very early nineties which brought me back to great times when low budgets and tremendous creativity produced entertaining movies for fans of the aforementioned genres. Watch it with some friends over beers and pizza on a Friday night and have a great time.

From start to finish this movie knew it's audience, and I'm it. It's story progressed perfectly with twists that were unexpected. The acting was great with an unforgettable sound track with nothing but bangers that will have you singing along like "I don't wanna be a Bigfoot no more". Rarely in my life do I resonate with a character in a deep and meaningful way and boy howdy did I with the Bigfoot. The amount of emotion that was broadcasted through his face and acting is superb. Even with no lines I felt a-tune to the supposed monster. This was all done with a perfect, tasteful amount of cleavage. A must watch for all who like Bigfoot and women.
