Set in the wild forests of the Northwest, this film starts off like a serious horror film. Geroge Kennedy brings a real emotional gravity to the film as the father whose daughter is kidnapped by a giant ape in the film's truly scary first scene.
He comes back intending to find and kill the ape but runs into a group of teens out thrill-seeking for Bigfoot, including the well-meaning hero and heroine. Suddenly, two gorgeous girls (one is Michelle Bauer) show up, strip and sunbathe topless. They too are attacked by the ape. Now pay attention. People start turning into zombies and heading for a giant cave in a mountainside. Here we learn that the apes are not really apes but humans who are controlled by aliens trying to get enough slave labor to fix their spacecraft; and as a very sexy perverse thrill, these aliens are stripping beautiful young women and doing Aztec-type cut-out-your-heart human sacrifices. Our heroine is very prettily being prepared for the next ritual, and the hero must find some way into the cave, past the weird slave/zombie/apes. and into the spacecraft to rescue her.
The film is strange and twisted and quite entertaining.

This is one of those movies that just has it all. It has Bigfoot, Zombies, Aliens, and Satanic sacrifice. It all makes little sense and the FX are poor at best, but you gotta give this one points for the balls shown by trying to throw all that stuff together into one movie. The plot is like this; Bigfoot is running wild in Demonwoods, and an old man and a group of teens are trying to track him down. Turns out Bigfoot is one of the teen's uncles turned into Bigfoot by some alien/mutant that lives in a trash can and has a scorpion tail inside of a crashed spaceship inside of a cave where he is worshiped by some satanic priest who brings him sacrifices (it eats human hearts) and turns the victims into zombies who work on repairing the spaceship so it can return to space. Got all that? There's plenty of bare boobies, blood, and rubbery costumes. A real 80's tour-de-force which is up there as far as most absurd/nonsensical movies ever made... but it is still highly watchable and made well despite all of that. A must for any horror collector or for those who need to see the wackiest of movies.

It was good.It was a very hard movie to find.I had been looking for it for years and finally found it.Thank You.

I had seen this move as a child on USA up all night and it scared me to death but as an adult i found this here and paid a pretty penny for it and was so disappointed and wandered what i had seen in this movie as a child cause this has to be the worst horror movie ever made. once i watched it once i sold it to a local bookstore. Don't watch this movie and expect it to be scary cause it isn't
