So Happy Together | |
Willow Creek / int_23a37bb9 | comment |
So Happy Together: Jim and Kelly are a quirky and doting couple throughout the movie and she's willing to support Jim's beliefs despite her lack of them. In the tent scene, Jim asks Kelly to marry him and she considers moving in with him...and then they hear increasingly loud howls in the distance. | |

Things That Go "Bump" in the Night | |
Willow Creek / int_34d7d9b | comment |
Things That Go "Bump" in the Night: There is a grueling 20-minute-or-so scene with the main characters trembling under a blanket, as all sorts of creepy racket goes on in the dark outside their tent. | |

Willow Creek / int_392372f9 | comment |
Actor Allusion: Bryce Johnson and Alexie Gilmore both played a love interest to the lead in one of Goldthwait's previous films (Sleeping Dogs Lie and World's Greatest Dad, respectively). Here, they're the two leads who are love interests to one another. | |

Idiot Ball | |
Willow Creek / int_7286e96d | comment |
Idiot Ball: Mainly Jim who, as a grown man, ignored dozens of warnings and dragged his helpless girlfriend into the rugged outdoors (in search of a legendary monster, no less) without so much as: an edged weapon or tool, map, compass, first aid kit, or backup plan if things didn't go well... which they don't. | |

Didn't Think This Through | |
Willow Creek / int_8d0785d5 | comment |
Didn't Think This Through: Jim and Kelly, on so many levels. First and foremost: traipsing deep into the forests and mountains of the Pacific Northwest with little to no survival gear or tools whatsoever, other than their tent and cutesy flannel shirts. Predictably, they end up cowering under a blanket in the dark and later getting completely lost, to the tune of Kelly gradually melting down and getting hysterical every time the wind blows... all prior to the inevitable climax. | |

Enchanted Forest | |
Willow Creek / int_966f0c70 | comment |
Enchanted Forest: The forest Jim and Kelly travel to is specific to the Bigfoot legend, and is where the only purported Bigfoot sighting was captured on film. Locals warn of a Bigfoot curse that allegedly causes relationships to sour and spoil, and explorers to become obsessed and permanently lost in the forest of Willow Creek. | |

Upper-Class Twit: Both Jim and Kelly are sheltered, well-to-do suburbanites with absolutely no clue how to handle themselves in the wild or work through dangerous situations, Bigfoot related or otherwise. | |

Willow Creek / int_9d12bbc1 | comment |
Foreshadowing: Jim remarking on the missing poster, "That girl seems pretty happy to be missing." Turns out she's been kidnapped by the Bigfeet, taken as a breeding slave, and seems to be in the throes of Stockholm Syndrome. | |

Stockholm Syndrome | |
Willow Creek / int_a5f998ea | comment |
Stockholm Syndrome: It seems that the missing woman was not only abducted by Bigfoot, but has been added to the 'colony' of Bigfoot in the area. The last scene in the movie has the Bigfeet and her making the same call. | |

Be Careful What You Wish For | |
Willow Creek / int_b06bbf4b | comment |
Be Careful What You Wish For: Jim's motivation is his enthusiasm for the cultural phenomena that is Bigfoot, and he wants to go to Willow Creek because of its significance as the place the famed Patterson Gimlin film was recorded. He really gets more than he bargained for with that one... | |

Leave the Camera Running | |
Willow Creek / int_b2af79fb | comment |
Leave the Camera Running: There's a shot that lasts roughly 19 minutes of the movie. Most of it is Jim and Kelly just snuggling together terrified, listening to some sound/rustling coming from outside their tent, with Kelly crying. The sound and Kelly's tears jump out several times but most of it is them waiting, suspenseful. | |

Nothing Is Scarier | |
Willow Creek / int_cdfe12c3 | comment |
Nothing Is Scarier: Best showcased in the above tent scene, it's just a long sequence of Jim and Kelly waiting through the night in silent horror as they hear the sounds of Sasquatch getting increasingly louder as their tent. It gets creepier when they hear the sound of a woman crying and making the same noises as the sasquatches. Jim and Kelly try to keep their cool when the things begin pressing against the tent. | |

Breeding Slave | |
Willow Creek / int_d59d06c4 | comment |
Breeding Slave: The film plays with the idea of "Forest Brides" who are women abducted by sasquatches for the purpose of reproduction. Towards the end we find this is the fate that befelled a missing woman and it's heavily implied to be Kelly's fate. | |
