Spoiler Alert!!! This is the most stupidest film I've ever seen! It's about as stupid as It Waits which also stars the always attractive Cerina Vincent. Poor beautiful Cerina is stuck doing these stupid dumb horror films just like Cabin Fever. My God she deserves better because she is a decent actress, yet in horror films the girls seem to be good for nothing but screaming and having sex appeal. I hate this movie for it's even dumber ending OH BIG FOOT CAN BE KILLED BY SEEING TWO PEOPLE HOLDING HANDS! My God it would of been a smarter ending if they just lit the creature on fire and feed it to the sharks! Then again if we did that horror movies would be too simple to solve so just kill it by love. Waste of my life and a waste of Cerina's beautiful talent! it's a 1 out of 10.

A group of thieves heist the bank of a small town and shoot a deputy. While escaping from the police chase, their van crashes another car on the road. They make the driver hostage and they run to a forest, followed by the "men-of-law". Meanwhile a "big-foot" chases both groups, and they join forces against the "thing"."Sasquatch Mountain" is one of the most awful movies that I ever seen. The story and the dialogs are ridiculous; the camera work and the edition are terrible, maybe because the restrained budget; even the sexy Cerina Vincent is not able to save this garbage. In respect to the veterans Lance Henriksen, Tim Thomerson and Rance Howard, I am not writing any word about their performances. The authors of the favorable reviews in IMDb (ten stars?) misleading the readers are probably included in the payroll of this cheesy flick. My vote is one.Title (Brazil): "O Demônio da Montanha" ("The Demon of the Mountain")

Saquatch Mountain, also known as Devil on the Mountain which is what I saw it under, is set in a small rural backwoods American town where a young woman named Erin (Cerina Vincent) is drifting through on her way to a new life somewhere, not that that matters though because while driving along Erin is involved in an accident with a gang of bank robbers lead by a guy named Travis (Craig Wasson), in an ensuing gunfight with the local Sheriff (Rance Howard) the gang kidnap Erin & flee into the forest with the local law enforcement in close pursuit. However there is something that lives in the forest, something that isn't human & the crooks & police are forced to work together to try & survive, but is it enough?Directed by Steven R. Monroe Sasquatch Mountain is a pretty terrible film all round almost as if there weren't enough really bad low budget horror films already. The boring script by Michael Worth takes itself far too seriously & tries to mix the basic 'criminals on the run encounter all sorts of horrors' taken from From Dusk Till Dawn (1996) & the basic killer Bigfoot scenario from the much, much better Night of the Demon (1980) both of which I think are throughly excellent films by the way & a hell of a lot better than Sasquatch Mountain which is crap. Anyway, there are lots of problems with Sasquatch Mountain, from the basic concept which is pretty bad in itself to the truly awful character's including a getaway driver for a bank job who would rather go down on a pretty girl than actually wait outside the bank (actually when you put it like that...) for his mates who are shooting the place up, then there's the inevitable in-fighting & petty arguing rather than working together as a team to survive & an annoying British guy who I just wanted to die. I have to mention the ending which is terrible in itself, I think it's meant to be all 'emotional' but it comes across as just embarrassing. Then there's the fact it's incredibly dull, boring & predictable, not much really happens & there's an unforgivable lack of horror or gore or anything that might keep you awake. It's all rather obvious, it felt like the thing went on for hours & in my opinion it basically has zero entertainment value.Director Monroe makes this thing even more annoying to watch as he uses all sorts of editing tricks like most of the time when the creature is on screen the picture goes very blurry, he uses slow-motion, there's some highly annoying & somewhat dizzying shots where he insists on spinning the camera 360 degrees around people for little reason, the whole film seems to lack colour so it's quite drab to watch & the creature ends up looking like a gorilla more than anything else. Forget about any gore as there isn't any.With a supposed budget of about $800,000 the makers of Sasquatch Mountain didn't have the biggest budget ever but having said that it's still a terrible film. One of the most disappointing things about Sasquatch Mountain is that the always fantastic Lance Henriksen is in it, the guys just class, he deserves better & it's a shame that he's making films like this. Apart from him the acting from everyone else is poor.Sasquatch Mountain is a terrible straight-to-TV piece of rubbish that I got no enjoyment or entertainment from at all & it's as simple & straight forward as that. One to avoid.

It's wonderful to see Cerina Vincent in another movie on SciFi Channel. It's just too bad this movie is so dreadfully awful. She's part of a bank robbers (she's not one of them but they kidnapped her) who get into a gunfight with police. They hide out in a secluded cabin in the Arizona mountains, which happens to be owned by Lance Henriksen (who, like Vincent, seems to get roped into doing a lot of horror movies that wind up on SciFi Channel). Of course, what Henriksen knows that everyone else doesn't is that Sasquatch-type monsters live in the area and they actually find the taste of human flesh quote satisfying. We really don't get too wrapped up in the story, though. There's too much time devoted to the robbery and not nearly enough into the Sasquatches; you almost feel like they're just a time-killer until more robbery scenes are filmed. Note to SciFi Channel: if you're going to do a movie about a bank robbery, call it "Robbery Mountain." But hey, Cerina Vincent does have great legs.
