Product Description

(Both docs. are now on one DVD) Scott Herriott is in his mid-forties and he believes in Bigfoot. In 1992, he feels he came within 40 feet of one of these beings. There was video involved. Yes, it is in the film. He was interviewed on both A&E's "Ancient Mysteries" and "Sightings" about what happened to him. A couple of years ago he decided to go on mini-expeditions with people he'd met over the years who have shown an interest in the phenomenon - believer and skeptic alike. And therein lies the film. Scott visits with: William Dranginis - a man who claims to have had a direct encounter with a Bigfoot. This event inspired him so much that he put together a gizmo-laden motorhome chockful of the latest in electronic surveillance equipment. Mark Thompson - This rich uber-geek joins Scott on an aerial quest in his state-of-the-art helicopter to test out a hypothesis. Ed "The Surf Guru" Marques is an actor and comedian who ventures up to classic Squatch territory with Scott in NW Calif. to visit museums, drink beer and get scared at night by something rustling in the leaves. Plus, Scott and his parents at a remote fire lookout and a visit to the annual Texas Bigfoot Conference (including appearances by Loren Coleman and Dr. John Bindernagel) round out the film. And oodles more. Scott has hosted, reported and produced for the likes of PBS, TechTV, and CNN. He hosted "Internet Tonight" on TechTV where he won a Northern California Emmy for best host of an entertainment program. This seriocomic documentary is a must for anyone who loves wry humor with their Sasquatchery. "Journey Toward Squatchdom" had the late great Sasquatch seeker Rene Dahinden describe it as "the funniest god damn thing on Bigfoot I've seen." Nick Redfern of Phenomena magazine calls it "monumentally funny". "Journey Toward Squatchdom" goes from onsite inspections in classic Bigfoot country to visits with some of the more fringier Bigfoot seekers. A must for any Squatch enthusiast.

5.0 out of 5 stars Two of the best films on the subject!, June 9, 2005

By	P. Pinkham (Santa Cruz, CA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I have been interested in the subject of Bigfoot for many years now, and I have to say that of all the documentaries and films on the subject, Scott Herriott's "Squatching" and "Journey Toward Squatchdom" are two of the very best!

In "Squatching," Scott takes us to various locations with his family and friends, where in candid interviews he gets their thoughts and feelings on the subject of Bigfoot. Interlaced throughout is Scott's sense of humor, and I found myself laughing out loud often as I watched. This is not just a great Sasquatch film, but a great film period!

Now get ready to really laugh! A lot! "Journey Toward Squatchdom" is a true laugh-out-loud film that pokes fun at the subject and some of the people and places associated with Sasquatch. Here Scott manages to do something incredible, in that he takes a subject that some take very seriously, but is able to make fun of it in such away that doesn't offend the viewers who are believers, but rather gets them to laugh along with him. Hilarious and educational, this one is a must-see!

Whether you are well-versed in all things 'squatch, or a novice on the subject, you cannot help but be entertained by these films. I highly recommend them!

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful DVDs, June 9, 2005

By	Jaylee Dee (Arkansas USA) - See all my reviews

I love this DVD! "Journey Toward Squatchdom" shows Scott Herriott's ability to take a serious and mysterious subject, and show how much fun, and how funny, the search can be. I recommend this DVD because "Squatching" is something that everyone who's ever wondered if the "big guy" is really out there, and those who've never given it much thought, will not want to miss. You will be entertained, plus you'll learn a great deal about this mystery.

Try this DVD. You won't regret it I promise.

5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely recommended to all believers and non-believers!!!, October 17, 2005

By	H.M. 2005 - See all my reviews

This double-DVD is really well-crafted, and Scott Herriott really uses a good deal of comedic elements to make his point. "Squatching" is seriocomic, and describes Scott's true passion for the subject of Sasquatch. It's a little more serious than "Journey Toward Squatchdom", but it does have comedic moments. We meet his mom and dad, his girlfriend, even his dog. We also meet other well-known Bigfoot personalities along the way, such as Loren Coleman, William Dranginis, Dr. John Bindernagel and Craig Woolheater, and get to see some really beautiful country in northern California. "Journey Toward Squatchdom" is so much funnier than "Squatching". It really showcases Scott's comedic talents and is genuinely hilarious. We meet more Bigfoot personalities, such as Ray Crowe, the late Datus Perry and Frank Kaneaster. I laughed out loud more than once watching this documentary. If you like serious, scientific documentaries on Sasquatch, buy "Sasquatch: Legend Meets Science". But, if you want to watch a semiserious documentary that will make you laugh your butt off, this is the one to buy!
