Snowbeast (1977)
Dir- Joseph Stefano
A Colorado resort town celebrating a winter carnival becomes the hunting ground for a bigfoot-like monster that attacks the locals and lone skiers. The Sheriff tries to downplay the attack by claiming it's a bear attack, but the resort owner's grandson turns to his friend, a former Olympic skier, and his ex-girlfriend to help stop this creature. Snowbeast was a made-for-TV monster movie directed by Joseph Stefano and starring Bo Svenson and Yvette Mimieux. The film is one of many men vs. nature movies released in the wake of the 1975 blockbuster Jaws. Unfortunately, the film does not show much of the creature and focuses on the down on his lucky hero and his wife. While the film is certainly not a classic, it is the perfect type of movie for RiffTrax commentary and is one of many B horror movies in their catalog.
