Three
hunters are brutally killed by a creature,
most likely a grizzly bear, while on a hunting
trip. Despite being aware of this fact, four
teens decide to camp in the forest. What they
don't know is that no grizzly bear was responsible
for the deaths of the three hunters and they soon
find themselves running from a killer sasquatch.
The loch ness monster? Well yeah that could be
true I guess. Ancient creatures coming back to
life? Sure, why not. A killer sasquatch? Hell no.
I've seen a couple of these sasquatch horror
movies and I have yet to see a single good one.
Now, I don't know if it's due to the fact that
I don't believe in sasquatches but I highly
doubt that a movie so generic as "Clawed" could
be entertaining for anybody. It's the exact same
movie that we've seen so many times before.
A couple of people are on a trip through the
woods, we have some bad guys and some good guys
running from a killer sasquatch. Not a whole lot
more to the story than that really and this is
almost the exact same thing that happened in
"The Untold" and "Sasquatch Hunters". Anyway,
moving on from the obvious lack of originality
in the story and onto more interesting things.
Clawed looks like it had pretty decent production
values as the acting is all right and the directing
isn't too bad either. Sure, the sasquatch looks
hilariously bad but can anyone really make a
monkey man look scary? The whole thing is very
predictable and quite sloppily put together but
as I said, the production values were decent and
that lifted it up a bit.
Sadly, it doesn't matter how high of a budget a
horror movie has, it's the story and execution
of the script that matters and I doubt that this
had a very good script in the first place. This
is only a movie for those who REALLY enjoy
horror movies about killer sasquatches but if
you've seen other DTV sasquatch horror flicks,
you've pretty much seen this one as well.
Some guts, a lot of cheap blood splatter and a
gory, dead grizzly bear. Not a lot here.
Very generic soundtrack, nothing out of the
ordinary but could have been worse.
I guess you can't really do much more with the
killer sasquatch concept than this since we now
have at least three DTV horror flicks with the
exact same story. Fear Runs Silent might be the
one with most originality in it so check that
one out instead or wait for "The Abominable"
which is also coming out soon.
