Have you ever heard of the 1987 film "Harry and the Hendersons"? It's a classic tale of a family who accidentally hits a Sasquatch with their car while on a camping trip and decides to take him in as one of their own. The movie is a heartwarming and entertaining look at the possibility of coexisting with a Sasquatch, and it's a must-watch for any Bigfoot enthusiast.
In the movie, the Henderson family is out on a camping trip in a National forest when they hit something with their car. At first, they assume it's a bear, but when they investigate, they realize it's actually a Sasquatch. Despite the initial shock and fear, the family decides to take the Sasquatch, who they name Harry, home with them.
As they try to integrate Harry into their daily lives, they quickly realize that he's not just a wild animal, but a highly intelligent and emotional being. Harry learns to communicate with the family, and even begins to pick up on human habits, such as watching TV and eating with utensils.
But not everyone is as welcoming of Harry as the Hendersons. A hunter named Jacques Lafleur is on the hunt for the Sasquatch and becomes obsessed with capturing him. The Hendersons must then protect Harry and keep him hidden from the outside world.
One interesting fact about the movie is that it was directed by William Dear, who is known for his work in family and adventure films. Dear was able to bring a sense of wonder and magic to the story, making it a beloved classic among Bigfoot enthusiasts.
Additionally, the film's special effects team did an excellent job of bringing Harry to life. The Sasquatch was played by Kevin Peter Hall, who also played the Predator in the "Predator" franchise. The team used a combination of animatronics and costumes to create the character, and it's easy to see why Harry quickly became a fan favorite.
To sum up, "Harry and the Hendersons" is a must-watch for any Bigfoot enthusiast. It's a heartwarming and entertaining look at the possibility of coexisting with a Sasquatch, and it's a great reminder of the importance of treating all living beings with kindness and respect.
