The premise

Sean Reynolds, a highly acclaimed investigative journalist (who strongly believed in paranormal phenomena), destroyed his career when the most watched episode of his reality show, based on paranormal phenomena, turned out to be a hoax. Sean saw a news report on a "Bigfoot Hunter" (Carl Drybeck) who claimed to possess the body of a dead Sasquatch. He believes Drybeck is a phony and decides to create a new show that reveals people's paranormal claims as hoaxes. Sean assembles his old film crew and heads to Northern California's "Lost Coast" to meet with and interview Drybeck. Obsessed, Sean is staking his comeback, his life and the lives of his documentary film crew on proving Drybeck's claim to be a hoax.

Horror Vault's take

A disgraced journalist bets his comeback on debunking a backwoods eccentric who claims to have a Bigfoot corpse — but the remote Northern California wilderness has a way of making skeptics reconsider. Shot in the style of a documentary crew's raw footage, the film builds slow-burn dread as the line between elaborate hoax and terrifying reality grows increasingly blurred. The deeper Sean and his crew venture into the Lost Coast, the more their mission shifts from investigation to survival. What starts as a story about exposing lies may force everyone involved to confront something far worse than being wrong.
