* {{Novelization}}: Written by Brad Carter for the film's 2021 home video release on DVD and Blu-ray, it's a rare example of a movie getting a tie-in book long after it has come and gone from theaters. It was originally included in a set with the Blu-ray, but was eventually offered for sale on its own.

[[caption-width-right:325:"We are in the heart of Bigfoot country."]]
Classic 1980, though sometimes erroneously labeled as a 1979, horror film directed by James C. Wasson and produced by Jim L. Ball.
The plot involves a horribly scarred man recollecting how he ended up where he was to investigators, revealing he was an anthropology professor who took his students on an excursion to investigate bigfoot reports. Along the way, he recounts tales to them about how Bigfoot horribly mutilated multiple victims. They discover a reclusive mountain cult which worships the monster as a demon, and interrupt a ceremony in which the cultists try to offer up a crazy woman named Wanda as the beast's bride. Seeking Wanda, the group is told of her past as the bigfoot stalks the cabin.
Starring virtually entirely unknowns, the film is perhaps best known for appearing on the VideoNasties list. A not-unearned title given the very visceral and gory kills. The movie can best be described as a SlasherMovie with a bigfoot as the killer, right down to the monster using weapons on several occasions.
