One man’s adventure will forever change your mind about Bigfoot in Squatch.
The indie horror film will be released on VOD March 10 via Freestyle Digital Media. Watch the trailer below.
The story centers on Nick Peters, who has spent his entire life without his estranged father. Living in a small working-class town with his mother, he unexpectedly inherits his father’s estate including a remote cabin in the deep northern woods.
Wanting nothing to do with it, he’s ready to walk away until Cassie, the coworker he’s pined for, offers to go with him. What begins as a weekend of closure quickly descends into a fight for survival. As they cross into a world untouched by man, they come face-to-face with a myth that has finally stopped hiding.
Professional wrestler Jacob Southwick — better known under the ring name Sawyer Fulton during his time in NXT — stars as Squatch alongside Paige Weishuhn, Jack Chaney, and Cassandra Schomer.
Tom Chaney (Frostbiter: Wrath of the Wendigo) directs from a script he co-wrote with Bill Conger.
“Bigfoot is back in the cultural bloodstream, and we knew it was time to drag Squatch into the horror universe,” said Chaney. “We built a fearless team and made a savage film that doesn’t blink.”
Chaney, Jerry Land, Lawrence Berman, Andrew Ruth, and Susan Chaney produce, with Scott Agge, Robert Chames, George Ziyadeh, and Charles Chaney serving as executive producers.
