Hoax

There are very few good Bigfoot films and Hoax is no exception. This is bad. It starts bad, with a dim premise and woeful motivation then continues to degenerate from there. The production values seemingly waver between late 90’s midnight grunge house and pornhub originals. The cast are all over the place in terms of their acting quality, averaging at passable but skewing over-the-top. The direction is amateurish and the project lampshades its own miniscule budget and production woes. If the script had gone more meta with some of its humor, this might have been more passable. Instead, this film becomes more of an ordeal to watch. There is a slightly interesting last act twist that swiftly veers into torture porn. Unoriginal, uninspired, and unrecommended.
