video review : American Sasquatch [ Man Myth Or Monster ]

I suspect the Sasquatch is a Myth. This documentary; the first from David Paulides not related to Missing 411; only reinforces my suspicion. Bigfoot as simply an undiscovered species of “flesh and blood ape” is intriguingly plausible. It’s the creature being given supernatural attributes, enabling it to literally disappear before you can get a good camera shot, that makes the eyes roll.

It’s a convenient excuse, in other words, for what is essentially a lack of evidence. People talk about their alleged encounters; one woman swears it stared into her bedroom window one night à la Peeping Tom; but the video/audio recordings are rather unconvincing. Sasquatches, even magical ones from “the spirit world”, might exist, but this doc, while interesting, fails to make the case.

video review : Weapons

The best thing about this story is the initial premise. A class of elementary school kids go missing after running away from home at “2:17 in the morning”. Once that mystery is solved and its supernatural origins are revealed, you’re left wishing you were watching something more serious than a horror flick with comedic undertones.

That’s not to say it isn’t interesting enough to keep watching, but some of it “doesn’t make any sense at all”. The plot; sliced into nonlinear chapters based on each main character; never really comes together in the end. The whole point of Gladys’ Weapons, in fact, let alone the significance of “2:17”, is basically left to your imagination.

video review : Reinier De Ridder versus Bo Nickal at UFC Fight Night

“Hype train derailed”, Billy Goff posts on X, but it’s not a total surprise. The wheels were getting wobbly in Bo Nickal’s last two fights. Cody Brundage and Paul Craig raised questions about a potential undefeated streak. Reinier De Ridder, his toughest opponent yet, answers them here by not only stifling his prestigious wrestling but defeating him “by knockout” via knees to the midsection.
