3.0 out of 5 stars Needs more, January 18, 2008

This review is from: Bigfoot Lives (DVD)

This production is presented by self-proclaimed 33 year long bigfoot researcher Tom Biscardi, not the highest held name in the bigfoot community. He is joined by 'Java Bob' (of Happy Camp 'fame' - locals know what this means). None-the-less, Biscardi takes his group on the road covering many different states and actually presents a few interesting highlights but also some 'so-whats'. There's a number of eye-witness testimonies which are interesting but the photos are iffy and known fakes. There are three very intriguing points in this presentation that really needs to be looked into and expanded upon with conclusions.

A) The unidentified severed hand from Idaho Falls (can be seen on Biscardi's website)
B) Hiriam Upham's juvenile leg video (slightly disturbing when viewed), lost buried in his field - Browning, MT
C) Mike Sell's unidentified large grave skeleton (can be seen on Biscardi's website) and purported 'attack' encounter video - Paris, TX

Downside - Biscardi's constantly saying "okay" after every partial sentence as if he is talking to a 10 year old really bothered me. Then there's Biscardi's long time connection to Ivan Marx (known hoaxer) which is not very beneficial to one's credentials (pertaining to bigfoot research anyway). One of his creature photos, I believe, is from the Ray Wallace fakery-collection. But mostly, just Biscardi's reputation isn't that good and he spends as much time pushing himself as he does his 'research'.

It's a 79 minute presentation of which the first 20 minutes or so did very little to interest me, but then it got markedly better and interesting with the above mention three highlights, however, there is also no conclusion to any of those points which is a downer. The thing is, Biscardi is willing to go out there across the country to look into otherwise overlooked reports - for the right price that is (check out his past financial legal problems). Is it the best self-produced dvd out there - no. Is it worthy of your bigfoot collection - sure.

2.0 out of 5 stars Nothing new here., August 22, 2008

By

This review is from: BIGFOOT LIVES (DVD)

I purchased this DVD against my better judgment. The idea that any of my money might find its way into the Pockets of the man behind this production just didn't sit well.
Next time I'll listen to that inner voice.
There is nothing here any more ground breaking or earth shattering than there is on your average TV special on the subject. Nothing I "Knew" about the topic changed and the film didn't take me deeper into the world of Bigfoot. If the same old rehashed reports, ("I saw Bigfoot...he walked like this...I was a-skeered") and uneven, overly dramatic footage from the field are what passes for what is new and exciting in Bigfoot research, then maybe this IS the Citizen Kane of Bigfoot documentaries.
If you have ever watched more than one History Channel or A&E show on the topic of Bigfoot then you have already seen this film.
Once again, the grandiose claims of Mr. Biscardi fall FAR short of the truth.

4.0 out of 5 stars Very Good Documentary plus Unusual Physical Evidence, May 9, 2008

By 

Mister Salty (USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: BIGFOOT LIVES (DVD)

This documentary offers unusual locations, encounters and physical evidence (bones and tissue). Eye-witness accounts from mostly new witnesses and law enforcement (minimal reenactments). It features active BF areas in TX, OH, NY, AZ and MN rather than the usual Pacific NW. Three examples of bones and soft tissue are featured (I didn't expect this).

I thought the approach was very honest and the production value was comparable to BF docs seen on Travel Channel but not quite as high as History Channel or Discovery. The producer explains that he had worked with Ivan Marx and some of Marx's controversial photos are briefly featured in the film. I'm judging this piece not on it's evidence (you can decide) but rather it's ability to present evidence, present it clearly and offer enough new material to enhance the BF quest. I think it succeeds in this.
