A cabin in the woods, frolicking youths, Bigfoot and shaky cams
Three guys & two girls venture to a remote cabin in the heart of Texas for some fun times, but evidently anger a possible Sasquatch after maybe hitting another one at night on the nearby road.
"Exists" (2014) was made by one of the co-creators of “The Blair Witch Project” (1999) and you can tell by the emphasis on handheld shaky cameras, yet they’re thankfully mixed with some conventional shooting. The unsteady cams are annoying but admittedly successful in disorienting the viewer.
I like Bigfoot-oriented flicks, but some are so goofy or cheap that they made me lose interest. This one has elements featured in previous Bigfoot movies, like “Sasquatch” (2002), aka “The Untold,” and “Sasquatch Mountain” (2006). It’s superior to the former, but not quite as good as the latter, although it’s the most realistic film from this genre I’ve seen.
It helps that the redhead is easy on the eyes (Denise Williamson) and the other girl is decent (Dora Madison). Everything comes down to the final act and Eduardo Sánchez delivers the goods. I prefer this one to his more famous flick. There’s no pointless overkill cussing (notice I said “pointless overkill”), no runny snot, more varied camera work and the antagonist is actually shown.
The film runs 1 hour, 21 minutes and was shot in the remote woods of the Austin area, Texas.
