A Triple Feature of Snow Blinding Terror!
Sasquatch: The Legend of Bigfoot (1977)
A docudrama that follows a group of scientists and their guides who set out into the woods of the Pacific Northwest to find and capture a Sasquatch, better known as Bigfoot. As they go deeper into "Bigfoot country," they find what they are looking for. And wish they hadn't. During the film's story, some of the stories and legends of the creature are told and dramatized before men and monster meet. Shot on location in and around the Three Sisters Wilderness in Oregon.
Snowbeast (1977)
A ski resort in the Colorado Rockies has its annual winter carnival spoiled by a series of skiers being killed by an unknown animal. The local sheriff (Clint Walker) believes that the culprit is a legendary creature, a Yeti or Bigfoot. The owner of the ski resort says there is no such being (well, she doesn't want to lose her business). Either way, the creature is worse than The Grinch as it continues its attacks. Is it doing it because it hates skiers? Or maybe it feels about ski resort carnivals the way The Grinch felt about Christmas. Written by Joseph Stefano, who wrote the screenplay for Alfred Hitchcock's Psycho as well as being one of the creative forces behind the classic TV series The Outer Limits.
The Snow Creature (1954)
Botanist Dr. Parrish finds his expedition into Tibet turned into a Yeti hunt when the hairy horror kidnaps the wife of the group's guide. They don't find the monster or his victim, but do capture another one of the giant creatures and get the brilliant idea to bring back to the States for study. But U.S. Immigration won't allow the monster to be brought into the country. The creature gets tired of being boxed up, breaks out and is soon roaming the sewers of Los Angeles with the scientists and the authorities in hot pursuit. From the maker of Killers From Space and Phantom From Space, this was the first sci-fi film to feature that oversized gent from the Himalayas, the Yet, a.k.a. The Abominable Snowman.
