Snowbeast coming to DVD on October 4th


The original Snowbeast was first broadcast in 1977 in the US. The 1977 made-for-television horror film details the attacks of a ravenous white sasquatch on a Colorado ski resort. The teleplay was written by Joseph Stefano, who wrote the script for Alfred Hitchcock's classic 1960 thriller Psycho. Stefano reportedly used a book by Roger Patterson (who claimed to have encountered a bigfoot in 1967) as his primary inspiration, though no credit is given.

This new film is a 2010 slight remake and takes place in a remote Canadian town where a massive, bloodthirsty snow creature strikes terror when it starts slaughtering of animals and townsfolk. When a group of scientists investigate with the help of a local policeman, they are trapped by a terrible blizzard and must face off against the cold blooded beast!

SunWorld Pictures (from Archstone Distribution) has slotted the PG-13 foray into killer Yeti territory for an October 4th release date.

Directed by Brian Brough

  1. Hee hee. I adore the original--there's nothing like it! This looks a step above Syfy originals, but the monster is PATHETIC! They should have really just not shown him much instead of giving us full frontal fluff monster. Still, I know me, I never miss a single Yeti/BF movie ever. So, I'm going to cave and watch it.

  3. This film is from 2010. It's sorta like a re-make of the 1977 film.
