So is this really 'The best and bloodiest Bigfoot movie ever made"?
Aberrations 1997 next?
Nothing will ever beat Suburban Sasquatch.
@@LeeroyPorkins actually, 1983's CONQUEST from director Lucio Fulgi I believe according to his facebook page
Definitely Bloodiest but not one of the best
Nah. Abominable is.
Well, this one's probably bloodier, but Abominable is far better.
“Why the hell is it called Night of the Demon? It’s not a demon, it’s Bigfoot!”

Did AVGN review this?
@@anthonycerulli5524 Yes, for Monster Madness 2010: Camp Cult
"It can be two things!"
-Mayor Quimby, 1991
I remember that one and it was one of his funniest Monster Madness reviews.
James Rolfe is a washed up sellout hack .. screw him and anything he says
It's kind of funny how people tried to ban movies like this, and all it really did was get other film makers to go even further.
Watch the Ilsa movies, they went a lot farther lol.
EVEN FURTHER BEYOND! HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
@@BroomPusher2024 To infinity, and beyond!
They need to ban Cuties!!
@MercSamurai09 I get what the director was trying to go for (never watched it, just the reviews), but.... there's got to be a better way to do this execution, maybe a documentary? 🤷♂️
I love this film, i must have watched it a dozen times as a kid. The bigfoot itself looks like no description of bigfoot from any witness. It looks like the 1970s tv Hulk in a silly wig, painted brown and with bits of old carpet stuck on him.
It actually looks like the costume from The War or the Gargantuas
I thought the same thing.😂
Considering it's a low budget, your second sentence probably isn't that far off? XD
You had a sad time as a kid?
As a KID?
The girl scouts always carry knives in case they end up in the Magumbo Bar while stationed in Drambuie.
what's weird is that this is the THIRD Bigfoot movie i've seen about a teacher taking his students on an expedition in the woods filled with flashbacks and stories about the creature, after "The Curse Of Bigfoot" (which had the pacing and production value of "Things") and "Boggy Creek II: And The Legend Continues" (which even has the same climax of the Bigfoot laying siege to a house, though in that case it was to rescue its child rather than avenge its death)
Yes, I thought of those movies, too.
Brandon mentioned “The Curse of Bigfoot” in his first “worst movies he’s reviewed” list video. I’m pretty sure that he feels that the Cinema Snob took it down too effectively for him to bother reviewing it himself, but according to the way he describes it, it appears to share a lot of DNA with “Bigfoot,” which Brandon _did_ review.
Brandon Tenold, proving Canadians are great at sarcastic funny narration.
Keep em coming good Sir!!
Fun fact the monster from 50's Night of the Demon was the original inspiration for Oderus Urungus of Gwar's head/face
That truly is a good, fun fact. Good stuff.
@@gabrielcarter7900 for reference as to where I heard it lol Straight from Dave Brockie's mouth 😈
Rest in Pride Dirty Dave
@@Humongous420 Absolutely. Nothing better than straight from the source, and RIP Dave Brockie.
And the opening of the song Hounds of Love comes from it
GWAR RULES!!!
Your "FM voice" for that bit at 6:35 was just glorious. If you didn't have this gig, you could DJ for a radio station.
I'll have to see if there's any 'Rhythm & Bigfoot' stations in Canada.
@@TheBrandonTenold in any other country id say probably not, but given the amount of forests AND weed in Canada eh probably.
@@TheBrandonTenold hello brandon, don't know if you'll read this but this was really good, and i was wondering if you'd ever consider doing 2006's Abominable, it's a actually pretty good sci fi channel movie with some nice gore, good monster effects and has both jeffery combs and lance henriksen in it
@@simonhassnilsson7009 I agree! He should do Abominable
@@TheBrandonTenoldfun fact: this was one of thoose horror movies that apeard on cinemassacre's camp cult 2010 along side others like robot monster, dracula vs frankenstein and the phantom creeps
"The Inception of killer bigfoot movies." - new cover box quote, by taking Brandon out of context
Maybe for a future blu-ray release?
So does that mean the plot isn't very complicated but everyone keeps whining that it is?
I was honestly expecting the baby to be the squatch we see the most of, and the dead one would be the father.
I was expecting that too.
Nah, that would be too clever of them, not to mention it would justify the brutal backtory given (if youre gonna have a rape scene in your movie, may as well make it relevant for the plot). Nothing particulary clever is allowed in this film, specially for the characters.
It looked like a "baby alive" doll dipped in transmission fluid.
When I was younger, about the age of 7 I had a tendency to go to the bathroom wherever I was because I was a guy. I figured "hey, I can just /go/'
Well, my mom was understandably upset at me and I never thought much of it because I was a kid an just came to the knowledge of being able to just stand wherever.
My uncle gave me this movie to watch. Needless to say I never went to the bathroom ever again anywhere other than my own bathroom at home.
This... this is an unsettlingly odd film.
Despite this movie being low budget, there were some parts that were shot really well.
My favorite part was when Bigfoot just straight up massacred almost everyone inside the cabin while someone just goes ham on the movie's soundtrack.
Yeah the soundtrack during the attacks was really jarring, almost to the point of grating in my opinion.
Yup the killing scenes are the things worth watching where you are only watching everyone wearing flannel shirts
They go camping but no one thought to bring at least a hunting knife or modern tomahawk and the one guy with a gun dies a dumb death but it wouldn't be this movie if they didn't all have an IQ of 40!
I've always thought the soundtrack during that scene was akin to a baby randomly twiddling a synth's knobs, while a cat simultaneously walks back and forth over the keys.
😂 yeah
A Bigfoot that would have to go on the offenders list and picture would be put in the mail. To be distributed in any area it came into.
You would think that they would be able to smell Bigfoot long before they encountered him.
🤣
That's true, sightings often report the creature being accompanied by a horrid stench.
Considering the forest is full of smells, you could easily misinterpret something for another? :P
Interesting; this thing has exactly the same "plot" and structure as _Boggy Creek 2,_ well known to MST3K fans. Only of course _Boggy Creek 2_ doesn't have any gore to relieve the tedium of excruciatingly boring people hanging out in the woods.
That's why I only ever watch it's MST episode.
So I guess now we know what this movie would've been like if the producer hadn't added all the extra gore scenes.
@@TheBrandonTenold Oh, I don't know. We saw the little creature both times.
@@philipmonihan8222 No one should have to see the *little creature*
@@BusinessOfFear Well put.
congrats for the sponsor, hopefully you'll keep getting it in the future, you reviewing the strangest old movies just honestly really entertaining.🎉🎉
*THE NIGHT BIGFOOT WENT APESHIT*
So, Professor Nugent tells story after story of people being brutally murdered by Bigfoot...and his students are like, "Great! Let's keep looking for it! We'll follow you (to our doom), professor! Yeah!" That doesn't make a lot of sense.
Also, Bigfoot just straight up murders the people he encounters...until he gets to the two girl scouts...then, he kind of plays a game with them by making them stab themselves (instead of just dismembering them)...this is followed by the line, "Bigfoot isn't playing games anymore." Seems like the opposite is true: now he IS playing games.
Its like Brandon said, it was all natural selection. Its not Bigfoots fault that Nugent and his students have no self-preservation instinct whatsoever. And yeah, Bigfoot wasnt playing games anymore. He played that one game, no more. Professor Nugent profetic sight is no joke. Hell, he knew everyone (BUT him) was gonna die, thats why he keep going. Clearly he hated everyone in his class. Honestly, who cant blame him? They may just be the most boring group of people i ever seem. Nugent leading them to their doom is for the betterement of mankind.
He was hospitalized due to Cat Scratch Fever.
Just them Damn Yankees
I welcome this reimagining of Boggy Creek 2: The Legend Continues.

Brandon, you may fire when ready!

@@Canadamus_Prime His wife could have come to see him in the hospital and told him about it.
@@baileybecker5583 when?
It’s great that you compiled the best sleeping bag kills ever committed to film. 10 out of 10 sir.
I remember talking to a friend in class about a movie we both saw over the weekend, "Night of the Demon".
Things got confusing as the one I saw was in black and white and involved a big demon killing people who had been given a piece of paper. my friend saw this movie.
Personally, having seen both, I'd say the black and white one was way better (it's also about an actual demon, was made in 1957).
The B&W one is considered a classic.
Yes it is. The shots of the demon in the 1957 film were added against the wishes of the director.
The demon was amazing for a 50's movie.
@@josephyu1527 Sometimes a director is wrong. This is one of those times.
@@josephyu1527 I guess adding the actual demon made the story less "is there one or isn't there one".
The deaths themselves could (from memory) always be explained away as something else (the electrical cables, the train hitting the guy at the end).
To me, both are ok but they do change what the movie is showing. On one hand "yes, there is a demon" and on the other "is there one, really, could it not be just natural causes and hysteria".
One of my all time favorite movies.
I thought this would be the 50s movie with the kaiju sized demon of the same name
YES! I've been waiting years for this one!
Hilarious commentary as always. Great way to start the weekend! Keep up the great work!!
Finally, the OTHER movie Brandon brings up besides Hell Comes to Frog Town. I can’t wait.
And he knocked the stuffings up out of that sleeping bag with the person in it. Jason didn't even do that.
Jason has done a sleeping bag kill before, in Jason X iirc.
Ted Nugent vs sasquatch is a movie I'd Definitely want to see
My money's on Ted Nugent:)
Sasquatch vs. Chuck Norris.
@@jaysonraphaelmurdock8812 Chuck Norris would win, obviously? XD
@@sigmacademy 😁
Horny and the Hendersons being the best Bigfoot movie on the show. Is sort of like being the world's tallest dwarf. It really says more about the competition than the film itself.
The tradition carries on. Haven't noticed the knock off Frankenstein voice for a monster in awhile. Now I got to go rewatch the Night of the bloody apes review.
Curse of the Demon is a shortened version of Night of the Demon. The original version is much better. Provides some much needed background to the villain. It’s a great movie, you should definitely check it out.
Great film. Definitely could use the attention
Ah, yes. Telling your movies story in flashback.
That's a great way to spoil who at least one of the survivors will be.
Technically, they kinda spoil that already with the opening scene, because if anyone else was alive, the police wouldn't have had to question the Professor solely, and would have indicated that there were other survivors.
If they had bandaged up the survivor, and not have name dropped the character's name, it would have heightened the mystery of the identity of the survivor. Missed opportunity there, In my opinion. :/
At least they didn't spoil how much of the professor's face actually got burned...
@@TheBrandonTenold good point. They were considerate enough to wrap him in bandages so we don't know for sure.
The whole time, I kept wondering if there was going to be a reveal like Carradine in death race.
@@sigmacademy true, although they could have dropped the whole "telling the story" narrative entirely.
In the first Friday movie, we didn't get any of that until the end and it worked okay.
Maybe they needed to pad the movie so they added in the cop subplot?
It kinda felt like adding Sean bean to the silent hill movie - you could cut that out and not lose anything.
He just ends the story of the biker and then says 'Well, try to get some sleep everybody'. What a great professor.
Also, yes I believe that Bigfoot erotica exists because pretty much everything you can think of, somebody out there has made porn of some kind out of it.
Trust me, Bigfoot erotica exists
Loving it! A slasher/ bigfoot b/movie. Its all over the place. Some surprisingly bloody & gory scenes, that sleeping bag & the other infamous scenes are all timers & the ending is way over the top...Just great stuff!!! Cult classic
I got a big smile on my face when I saw you had posted. Thanks!
I was going to mention the UK movie from 1957 witch is one of my favourite films but you beat me to it! 😉
YT won't let me edit the comment but its appropriate to the plot of the movie!
Seems like Bigfoot was STANDING his ground.
This professor is all about putting his students in danger. But I guess you have to sign some type of disclaimer in order to be in his class.
Once he got tenor at the university you can't fire then
6:50 That bit made me laugh hard enough to almost choke on my sandwich.
9:50 I had to clench my legs and wince from that part.
11:12 I half-expected this movie to be Bigfoot porn.
15:43 and this movie ain't a GOOD example of it.
Ya know, there's something erotic and oddly satisfying about a big burly monster roaring in orgasmic triumph.
If you had to clench your legs and wince, this movie at least got you in that scene? ;)
I got a digital rental of this movie to view this ahead of your video, might review on my godforsaken blog. I'd say it falls into the category of, "Does this count as a movie???" The definitive example is Death Bed, which I maintain is more like a silent film than anything else.
Slim Jim's? You mean Jack Link's Beef Sticks, don't mess with bigfoot's snacks
Brandon making a review about a movie I'd definitely claw my skin off so painful is nothing else but pure master skills.
On the part of infamous bigfoot-movies, ever heared of Suburban Sasquatch?
When watching ANY movie, I always think to myself "I wish bigfoot was in this".
"since this movie is being told in flashback, if you're wondering how Professer Nugent knows about the kills he wasn't present for" Same thing that has always niggled at me about Silver Bullet tbh
"Holy jumped up bald headed Jesus palamina!"
😁
I KNEW IT WOULD BE THIS FILM!!! this is gonna be fun
his next movie he's reviewing after this is 1983's CONQUEST directed by Lucio Fulgi
"SOME DAY I'M GONNA GET THAT FILTHY ANIMAL!"

CLUTCH!! 🤘🤘🎸🎸

If I remember correctly, Curse of the Demon (the old British flick) has the same font for credits that Argento’s Demons used.
There's a pretty good novelization of this from Severin. I would recommend it. It expands the cult sence.
Did they put out the blu?
@@thEannoyingE yes they did
Unfortunately the novel rarely has bigfoot in it. Spends most of the pages dealing with the lady in charge of the cult. Bigfoot is only a 4th or 5th and maybe a 6th banana in that novelization.
Assuming the rape scene is included, would that make it the first 'Bigfoot erotica' novel?
@@TheBrandonTenold Oh, there's Bigfoot erotica in that second to last chapter.
This movie gives any "Demon" a bad name...my kins weren't even in it.
-A Demon, 2022
Nor my ex girlfriends.
The demon, ahem... Bigfoot makeup effects reminds me of the look of the original Incredible Hulk: Maybe it's just the bad Lou Ferrigno-esque wig.
Reminds me of William Shatner's twilight zone scene nightmare at 2700 feet! About another hairy creature destroys the air plain left engine will the main star trek actor watches in disbelieve? Just like Abominable of 2006 is the best Bigfoot horror movie ever made. The creature stalks a group of young collage students in house woods. A guy in a wheelchair across the top apartment tries to warn the young ladies! I give it a five star ratings a must recommend movie..
Looks like it's on RUclips too! Thanks for the recommendation!
Thank 😊 you very much for lady Ayeon the best Korean drummer lady. I also thank 😊 you too.
Seconding Abominable being pretty fun.
There's another movie called Exists, where they put Bigfoot in a Blaire Witch Project styled horror. It's even free to watch on RUclips
@@richardpulido4624 thank 😊 you very much may the great native American eagle bless.👍😎 🦅 🐉
"Arguably the most infamous Bigfoot movie ever made..."
Harry and the Hendersons?
I second this
Nah, Suburban Sasquatch.
The problem is Harry never ripped a guys dick off.
Is that infamous?
@@leeboy26 It's one of those "It's so bad it's good" type of movies. And a top tier one at that.
The flashback within a flashback!!! That's like.... 16 flashbacks!!!
Night of the Demon is one of the most unique slasher horror movies ever made. It’s Bigfoot going around killing unexpected campers in a very creative and also extreme ways. One killing scene I’ll never forget is the one where a biker got his Johnson yanked out. That alone is what I call cinematic masterpiece.
Oh Bugger. I was genuinely expecting the 1957 Dana Andrews Film. (based on the excellent "Casting The Runes" story by M R James). However, all is not lost. I am going to enjoy Brandon's genius, sarcastic analysis of what looks like a Bag of Wank 1980s Slasher.
Not to sound rude, but he did hint that it was going to be a bigfoot movie in his last episode
@@noahmezan2073 You don't sound rude.
Hey, I'm just happy both of you know Dana Andrews, I show the movie Laura to all my friends! You, sir, get extra points for loving M.R. James! I've found my people!
@@JoyfulOrb Whistle and I'll come to you. Without Dana Andrews we may have never had Ted Striker in Airplane! You have exquisite taste. These are the best years of our lives.
'A Bag of Wank 1980s Slasher' is one quote they DIDN'T include on the back of the blu-ray.
Recent fan, love your stuff☺
It is still banned in Germany for its violence..Funny Review, like your videos at every time
Considering German splatter is still considered the best for best retro gore effects by independent underground directors, that's rich. :/
The most infamous Bigfoot movie AND one of the best debut albums of the New Wave of British Heavy Metal (by a band called Demon, in case you're interested)
The 1957 *Night of the Demon* movie has 100% on Rotten Tomatoes
"Wanda remembers when she was a young Pippie Longstocking who was somehow the same age.........." Lol.
Your gags were especially on point in this one!!!
Your Shirt rocks! Clutch is an awesome hard rock band!
You should definitely review the movie Abominable. It’s like a Bigfoot, Yeti horror movie. It was a good popcorn movie growing up.
Add that ‘70s classic Snowbeast
@@stygianjack9017 Exists looks interesting too, and it's free to watch here on RUclips
Holy shit that RINO joke 😂😂😂
I've wanted to see this review for years. Also, kudos on the radio commercial skit.
Awesome and Totally Entertaining review of Night of the Demon. You Rock Brandon!
Great video Brandon. Continue the Big Foot movies and review 1976's Creature from Black Lake!
9:43 Hey Look, it's The Handy From Hell
@Brandon Tenold - I love that you rock Clutch shirts on your channel. Your videos are always amazing and you've got a really great straight man sarcastic sense of humor. Thanks for all you do for us
I said I kind of dig it at the same time you did. Love 70s music.
... thought this was going to be a review of the classic 1957 British horror movie, Night Of The Demon - great movie by the way.
Your humor is what makes these videos so great.
Tenold doesn't age. This bears investigating.
One of my favorite grade-z films. Had it on vhs, now on DVD.My pals & I ripped this thing to shreds when we first viewed it. when we saw Bigfoot's face, I said, "If Mick Jagger had sex with a female bigfoot, there ya go!"
Off the topic the one movie Night of the Demon that has two names was taken from an M.R. James story "Casting of the Runes." Which means it actually has three names.
An absolute riot. I’ve been wanting to watch one of these movies since young ones on MTV. Thank you for making this.
Bigfoot looks like the Ultimate Warrior in brownface.
nice t-shirt. I just found out about Clutch this week. right after discovering Volbeat.
You need to start from their first album and go through the entire discography. They friggin rock!
Check out Fireball Ministry too.
yall my cat is watching this
Sweet time for my favorite Canadian show on always love watching your vids and miss the Godzilla ninja
YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! I've been waiting to see this review for years ever since you first teased it waaaaaaaaaaay back then. :)
You never let us down. I look forward to new videos all the time because I laugh so hard and the movies are great
I'm sooooo happy you did a review on this movie😁. Great work 👍
Glad he finally did this movie have been curious about it ever since he brought it up in his review of night of the demons
Curse of the Demon/Night of the Demon (1957) is an excellent film.
Dark universe of 1993 - a giant alien unknown creature attacks civilians in the deep dark woods. Very great recommend movie.
A more entertaining "Wanda" vision tbh!
3:15 I'm with you, Brandon. When I heard the name Nugent, the words Cat Scratch Bigfoot passed through my head. You're welcome.
It's a Free Fur All!
Hey! Little Miss Dangerous is my favorite Nugent! That’s not saying much I guess
Damn, I haven’t seen this one since the video store days, I better get that new release and revisit it.
I just love that you're into CLUTCH..... I mean I love your videos but the CLUTCH shirt you wear often is the icing on the cake 🤘
Wow. Can't describe how fast I clicked as soon as I saw the movie he was doing. Gotta get properly burnt for this one boys.
This Bigfoot looks like a hairy Ultimate Warrior.
James Rolfe's original review actually used to scare me, despite the jokes. I find the weird synthesizer soundtrack to actually be quite unsettling especially with the juxtaposition of the forest setting.
Actually, Brandon, in the case of the 1957 film, Night of the Demon was its UK title. Curse of the Demon was its U.S. title.
Pro tip: Whenever you go camping, take several cans of Booty Sweat + Bust-a Nut bars. Good trail food.
Brandon never ceases to amaze me 💯👍😂
