Claire Dunne One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

Hayleigh Joseph This is ultimately a movie about the very bad things that can happen when we don't address our unease, when we just try to brush it off, whether that's to fit in or to preserve our self-image.

Zandra The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

Phillipa Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.

Burkhalter Although this movie will not keep you on the edge of your seat or get your adrenaline pumping, it is an entertaining way to spend 90 or so minutes. In fact, compared to what Hollywood has been cranking out for the last several years, this movie could be considered a breath of fresh air. We have to remember that it was a low budget film even for 1978, and it was filmed entirely in Texarkana, a border city on the state line of Texas and Arkansas. If it could be re-released as a "Kid's" movie, I think the younger generation and their parents who would accompany them would leave the theater with a smile on their faces. "Revenge of Bigfoot" has some really funny lines and situations. The "Hollywood" star is Rory Calhoun, but the real star of the movie is Mike Hackworth and his portrayal of his character, Rufus J. Pickle. Mr. Hackworth is a Texarkana native and a multi-talented guy. He also wrote and sung the theme song for the movie. I was an extra in the movie---in the hunt scene. It was amazing that people would stand in line for hours just for the opportunity of POSSIBLY being selected as an unpaid extra. It was a fun time, and I will always have fond memories.

kimiye13 I appeared as an uncredited extra in this movie. A journalism teacher at Southern Arkansas University in Magnolia called me in my capacity as editor of the college newspaper and invited me to cover the participation of one of his classes in filming a couple of scenes one weekend.A number of students drove over to Texarkana to spend the day performing as extras in a bar scene. We spent the majority of the day waiting for a fake glass window to be prepared for the "monster" to jump through. When filming began, we all sat around at tables pretending to drink and make merry. Then we were directed to scream, panic and stampede out of the place as the stuntman crashed through the window.I had my one moment of glory when the director decided to take a closeup of me screaming. I hollered my bloody lungs out, only to be told I was great, but the woman sitting behind me didn't realize she was in the scene and sat there smiling through the whole thing.Thus, my career as a B-movie scream queen bit the Texas dust.We attended the local premiere of the movie some months later. It was fun to see several classmates, such as David Wingfield and Becki Chandler, in their speaking roles. I was fuzzily visible in one scene sitting behind David in the bar. The movie itself? Heh. You don't get any more "B-movie" than this incredibly corny lost comic-horror classic. I'd love to dig up a copy, but I'm sure it's gone forever. Someone give Harry Thomason a call and see if he kept a copy, y'hear?

sonyac I was an extra in this movie at age 9. I would like to if possible find a copy of this movie for my family to have. Was great fun to be a part of and I would like to share it with my children. My grandparents were who this movie was based on they were the ranchers that Rory Calhoun and Patricia Kane portrayed
