‘Primal Rage’ Trailer Introduces a Badass New Bigfoot Monster

Published

on

This looks like Predator… with a Sasquatch.

There’s certainly no shortage of Bigfoot horror movies out there, but the reality is, most of them aren’t worth your time. My personal favorite? Ryan Schifrin’s Abominable, released in 2006. Some other ones worth checking out include The Legend of Boggy Creek and Bobcat Goldthwait’s Willow Creek, but the list really ends there. Bottom line? We need more GOOD Bigfoot movies.

Maybe Primal Rage is the one we’ve been waiting for?

Patrick Magee is a special effects makeup artist who has worked on Beyond Re-Animator, Dark Ride, and Zombie Strippers, and he makes his directorial debut with this year’s Primal Rage: The Legend of Oh-Mah. Given his effects background, we can expect that his incarnation of Bigfoot will be better looking than most, and the trailer suggests that to indeed be the case.

In the film, listed as coming soon:

A newly reunited young couple’s drive through the Pacific Northwest turns into a nightmare as they are forced to face nature, unsavory locals, and a monstrous creature, known to the Native Americans as Oh-Mah.

Primal Rage is said to “blow the lid off traditional Bigfoot Mythology, offering up an intelligent, cunning, primitive warrior being, cloaked in ancient Native American mystique.

Check out the first trailer below.

The cast includes Casey Gagliardi, Andrew Joseph Montomery, and veteran character actors Marshal Hilton, Eloy Casados and Justin Rain.

Writer in the horror community since 2008. Editor in Chief of Bloody Disgusting. Owns Eli Roth's prop corpse from Piranha 3D. Has four awesome cats. Still plays with toys.

Matilda Firth Joins the Cast of Director Leigh Whannell’s ‘Wolf Man’ Movie

Filming is underway on The Invisible Man director Leigh Whannell’s Wolf Man for Universal and Blumhouse, which will be howling its way into theaters on January 17, 2025.

Deadline reports that Matilda Firth (Disenchanted) is the latest actor to sign on, joining Christopher Abbott (Poor Things),  Julia Garner (The Royal Hotel), and Sam Jaeger.

The project will mark Whannell’s second monster movie and fourth directing collaboration with Blumhouse Productions (The Invisible Man, Upgrade, Insidious: Chapter 3).

Wolf Man stars Christopher Abbott as a man whose family is being terrorized by a lethal predator.

Writers include Whannell & Corbett Tuck as well as Lauren Schuker Blum & Rebecca Angelo.

Jason Blum is producing the film. Ryan Gosling, Ken Kao, Bea Sequeira, Mel Turner and Whannell are executive producers. Wolf Man is a Blumhouse and Motel Movies production.

In the wake of the failed Dark Universe, Leigh Whannell’s The Invisible Man has been the only real success story for the Universal Monsters brand, which has been struggling with recent box office flops including the comedic Renfield and period horror movie The Last Voyage of the Demeter. Giving him the keys to the castle once more seems like a wise idea, to say the least.
