I just found out an interesting bit of trivia researching this movie. There was another film that came out in 1964 that has been called one of the worst ever made. Its title was Santa Claus Conquers The Martians. Nicholas Webster directed that master piece and he also directed this documentary about Bigfoot boy what a stretch (I also saw where he did some directing on my beloved In Search Of series with Leonard Nimoy). This is a pretty average documentary its rather short and doesn't cover a lot of new ground. They interview Bigfoot expert Peter Byrne who also searched for the Yeti and also have a terrifying reenactment where a woman in Nepal wakes up to see a Yeti hovering menacingly over her bed. However, that is nothing compared to something else about this movie I remember when I first saw it on tv back in the mid 1980s. I swear that at the end they have a dramatized segment about three hunters who finally corner three Bigfoot and shoot two of them. Then the third Bigfoot charges the hunters roaring in rage and it ends with a gunshot as the screen fades to black. The version of this film I saw on youtube has a totally different ending. Does anyone else remember the scene with the hunters?
