Quiet Muffin This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

Bill Shatner The movie was very adventurous to say the least!! Around every corner was a new and exciting find. Holger Kasper and Steve Benally Jr. make quite a team. I'm surprised that they didn't do any future movies together.Starts off kinda slow though. When Johnny Guerro shows up with is pick-up, that's when the movie kicks into action; and when they find the cougar in ruins, look out!!! I won't spoil though. That's what makes this movie full of suspense though. Even though the ever present cougar is always lurking the canyon and ready to pounce, the boys camp out overnight there. What happens next??? Watch and see!!! I was at the edge of my seat for most all of the movie.

yougonnadothisornot This movie sucks. James T. Flocker sucks. in this movie he tied a live bald eagle to the ground and filmed a cougar killing it as it tried to fly away. the 'storyteller' claims that the eagle is holding its ground to fight the cougar over some meat but the eagle is actually trying hard to fly away but can't due to the rope that is clearly visible around its leg. was a bald eagles life worth wasting just to make this horrible movie? you can see ropes on most of the animals in this film actually. the badger is one of the worst. they have a rope tied around its tail that you can see dragging behind. I bought this movie in a bin at wal mart along with other cheap crappy movies for 50 cents. it was not worth it. James "Eaglekiller" Flocker is the worst director ever to disrespect a national symbol. the funny thing about crappy old movies is that, at one point, it was someones work and they were proud of it. now its trash in a bin at wal mart.

helpless_dancer Grade B semi-documentary concerning life in the Arizona canyons. The first half shows a series of scenes depicting various predators and other critters, and deals with how the food chain works while weaving in stories of indian lore and legends. Some of the footage appeared to be actual events, while most gave the appearance of being contrived. Most notably the scream of the cougar was the same each time it happened. I would think the animal has more of a vocal range than that one "Yeow!" The final half used several actors to portray the life of sheep herdsmen and their interaction with the predators while telling the story of the locals fears of certain old ghostly ruins. Little dialogue occurred among the players due to Rex Allen narrating the entire production. Where the film's title came from is hazy, as Allen kept referring to "life in Cougar Canyon". If you have an interest in the southwest, this picture shows much of the area from Monument Valley to Canyon DeChelly; and, though not at the high end of professionalism, is not a bad little show.
