Griff Lees Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

Tobias Burrows It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.

Hattie I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.

Deanna There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.

SashaDarko This one is marked as a horror about Bigfoot, yet in reality the creature itself only appears in the very end and the whole movie is more like a drama about some sort of a love triangle (or 2.5angle). A girl which lives in Chigaco decides to pay a visit to her mother who lives in a rural hometown and brings her boyfriend there. They go to a bar where she meets an old friend from her childhood, who's apparently very eager to romance and "steal" her from her boyfriend (alpha male bullshit and such). All of them together plus an additional friend of that alpha male decide to go on a Big Foot hunting trip, because that's where they were doing when they were kids (nostalgia and such).The great actors, natural and fluid dialogues and good camera work mix into a one big vehicle which drives the whole movie forward and you along with it. The characters are not some made up cardboard work, many of them actually reminded me people from real life I know (and Annie herself reminded me of the girl with the same name) and I'm not even an American. Absolutely not a fan of this "love 2.5angle" story, but still watched it because of the mentioned great actor work and dialogues.The appearance of yeti kinda looks awkward, the makeup is alright, but everything else is not, really. In motion and with such editing it's just looks like a man in a costume runs in front of a camera. It supposed to be a heavy beast, yet it has the ability to appear "out of nowhere" behind everyone and its steps are, apparently, silent (really, there are the sounds?).If you only want a yeti movie, I wouldn't recommend to watch it. But if you don't mind something else with a yeti included, then why not.sashadarko.com

Leofwine_draca STOMPING GROUND is a film which is marketed as a Bigfoot movie but turns out to be some turgid relationship drama instead. The story is about a young couple who go Bigfoot hunting in the woods, only to run in with another character who tries to break up the relationship. The production values are nil, and for a film described as a comedy horror, I didn't laugh once. There's a lot of bickering, a lot of arguing and conversations which add nothing to the overall picture, just endless soul searching which quickly becomes tiresome.

boadicea-18624 okay so i am a huge fan of horror movies and have seen some decent yeti/big foot films, but most of them are trash. this one however is worse than trash. it has terrible acting and doesn't make much sense. if you're looking for a good big foot movie look elsewhere. i actually cannot believe this has 5/10 stars. If you want an okay-ish big foot movie try Willow Creek or Exists. this movie is utter trash and isn't worth wasting your time watching.I know i might be a little bit brutal in writing this but do yourselves a favor and don't bother. the whole movie is basically 4 idiots walking around in a forest with a banjo playing. it is cliché and written extremely badly, has no mid peak and is boring the entire way through, extremely terrible special effects even though it's a low budget film they could have definitely done it better. none of it is funny or humorous it's just lame and not one part of it was good besides when it finished and i didn't have to watch it anymore.

jessicafischerqueen I'm a Sasquatch movie fanatic, and I don't remember liking any movie in this genre better than Stomping Ground. The acting and screenplay is so pitch perfect that I found myself more interested in the characters than in the actual bigfoot part of the story. The film's naturalistic, organic acting faithfully portrays the emotional concerns and conflicts of a small group of people in their late 20s. This is in stark contrast to the sophomoric acting and screenplay in Exists, which is probably a better "Sasquatch" movie. It's definitely not a better movie though. The quality of the character studies in Stomping Ground was so high that the horror scenes in the conclusion almost got in the way of the engaging narrative arc established in the first two thirds of the movie. That said, I did enjoy the Sasquatch elements, especially the foreshadowing, starting from the opening scene with the tree knocking. The Sasquatch monster was one of the better non-CGI efforts I've seen, and of all the Sasquatch movies I have watched- over a hundred it must be- I enjoyed this one the most. Thanks to IMDb mate Alamo Scout for putting me on to this Indie gem.
