The Legend of Bigfoot (1976)
A documentary about the legendary creature, Bigfoot, with emphasis on him being the missing link.
The film follows real-life animal tracker Ivan Marx as he attempts to capture the legendary Bigfoot on film. His search takes him across the United States, culminating in him finally filming Bigfoot near a river. Throughout the film, Marx relates many stories about both Bigfoot and his own life as a tracker.
Speaking to the camera, Ivan Marx introduces himself and sets the next 80 minutes in motion. The film details his continent-spanning search for the elusive Bigfoot, with the help of his wife, Peggy, a small group of assistants, and his red Volkswagen. Along the way, Jean Shepherd-styled narration and peeping tom footage of mother nature welcome us into the deranged merry-go-round of Mr. Marx’s mind.
