Where to watch indie Bigfoot thriller filmed in Mount St. Helens area

Fans may only get one chance to see “Feet of Death” in theaters.

A new mystery-thriller film shot in the Mount St. Helens area east of Woodland takes a stab at the concept of a bloodthirsty Bigfoot. “Feet of Death” follows a Forest Service ranger who must confront his own beliefs after a paranormal social media influencer is found dead in the woods.

Director James Chick said the film features real locations where people have claimed to see Sasquatch. Chick, who admittedly isn’t a Bigfoot believer himself, hopes the production drums up support for locally made independent films.

“I think anyone who likes thrillers, mystery, or monster films will really enjoy ‘Feet of Death,’” said Chick. “If you are looking for an extremely gory slasher film, this is NOT it, sorry. But if you like a good ‘whodunit’ with a bit of Sasquatch thrown in there, this is your film!”

“Feet of Death” premieres Thursday, Aug. 29 at 7 p.m. at Vancouver’s Kiggins Theatre. It’ll be available for streaming on Amazon in late September.
