5.0 out of 5 stars
Great documentary about Independent Bigfoot Researchers, August 14, 2006
This review is from: Keeping the Watch Bigfoot Researcher Documentary (DVD)
This documentary is about six independent researchers, and it's a good one. John L. Johnsen interviews, edits, produces and directs this hour-long documentary, which follows Dan Jackson of Florida, former researcher, talking about his foray into Skunk Ape research (he is now retired from research due to a terrifying experience he had with a creature); M.K. Davis of Mississippi is profiled next, discussing his groundbreaking work into the Patterson/Gimlin film; Chanda (no last name) discusses her habituation research in Missouri, which seems to be controversial to some, but may be credible; Carol Solomon, also of Florida, who describes a dead cow she found which the buzzards wouldn't touch, as well as strange tree and grass formations she has found in her area; David Shealy of Florida, controversial researcher (and possible hoaxer) discusses his activity and research into the Skunk Ape. Lloyd Pye is interviewed last, regarding hominoids such as Bigfoot, Yeti, Almas and other mystery primates all around the world. He gives his uncensored opinions of these events. This is a well-done and well-researched documentary, and well-worth purchasing.

"Everyday Experts", January 31, 2008
This review is from: Keeping the Watch Bigfoot Researcher Documentary (DVD)
This production presents six individuals that have an interest in the bigfoot phenomenon. Some had purported encounters, one of the guys is accused of hoaxing, and then there's Chandra. Ok this has nothing to do with 'proving' bigfoot exists or not. What it is, is a roughly hour long documentary on 'investigators' in the phenomenon. It's a look at the variety of everyday joes that have an interest in this. It's nothing special and the 'educated expert' does nothing more than summarize Ivan Sanderson's book on classifying unknown homonids. You get a former skunk-ape hunter, current skunk-ape hunter/hoaxer, granola girl, educated expert, a guy saying he's a paraphotographer(?!) "looks into the P/G film, and then pacifist Chandra who wants the bigfoots to study her not vice versa (she's a bit odd).
Overall, nothing to get excited about and it wouldn't hurt you to save your money on this. I found it relatively boring and largely uninspiring.

Poor at best, September 29, 2006
This review is from: Keeping the Watch Bigfoot Researcher Documentary (DVD)
I purchased this DVD and was very disappointed in its play quality and content. The persons interviewed were self proclaimed experts who were unable to provide any substantial information and made the concept of Bigfoot seem as if it were only a hoax. I strongly do not recommned this DVD for purchase and as the titile of my review uindicates, it is "Poor at best".
