Joe Canton and a friend are checking their traps in the swamp, when a hairy hand reaches up from the water and drags the friend out of the boat. Joe manages to get away and we are treated to a shot of him escaping that is framed by the furry wet crotch of the creature, ewwwwww!!!Two college students, who are older than your typical college kids, head into town to do research on the stories of the Bigfoot creature. The small town Sheriff warns them not to go round scaring the towns folk with their creature talk, which they proceed to do because they are clueless idiots.
The two end up finding a young man whose parents were killed by the creature and meet up with Joe Canton, whose story has been told outside of town. Joe also lives in a shack with newspaper on it's walls, wears a stained union suit, and drinks from a moonshine jug. But he is a creature believer and thus alright with them.
Any hopes of excitement are dashed as the two students spend most of the movie riding around in their van talking and having run ins with people who don't want there to be any creature talk. In the best Bigfoot scene in the film, the creature rolls their van down a hill and shortly afterwards it bursts into flames. Take that, college boy.
