Consider this, the first recent sightings of the Johor area "Bigfoot" took place in November 2005. Isn’t it rather amazing that the foreign media is still talking about Malaysia’s unknown hairy hominoids? And despite the fact that this has little to do with the traditional Pacific Northwest Bigfoot? But the news organizations are, and it’s time to pass on some behind-the-scenes exclusive news for Cryptomundo readers. Joshua Gates, 28, the host of the Sci-Fi Channel’s Destination: Truth, was one of the first American reality television filmmakers to get to Malaysia. He did this before the mild restrictions on searching for [...]
Vance Orchard Meets Roger Patterson, 1966
The late Vance Orchard mentioned, before he recently died, a 1966 incident that drew him into the search for Bigfoot. Here is the news item he wrote as a followup to that incident concerning the visit from Roger Patterson caused by that Walla Walla event. Below is a reproduction of the forty-year-old article Orchard wrote about the sighting near Walla Walla and the Roving Reporter’s time with Roger Patterson. The article includes a photo of Patterson with two track casts he’d found elsewhere, and the image of the eyewitness to the 1966 incident. The article can be enlarged for easier [...]
Clawed: The Legend of Bigfoot
In this week’s This Alaskan Life, in a longer profile article, there is the brief mention of a "new" Bigfoot movie coming to a DVD store near you: One day in 2001, Don Rearden got an email from movie director Karl Kozak, who was looking for someone to write a screenplay about Bigfoot. Rearden replied immediately. Growing up in Bethel, Rearden had heard a lot of “hairy man” stories, and he considered himself a student of Sasquatch lore….Rearden’s Bigfoot script – originally titled Terra Incognito, then changed to The Legend of Echo Mountain, then to The Unknown, and appearing soon [...]

Attack of the Show Appearance
I will have my second "live" appearance on G4tv’s current news/talk program, Attack of the Show on Tuesday, March 7, 2005, between 4:00 and 5:00 PM Pacific. This will be the first broadcast appearance of Bone Clones’ Homo floresiensis skull replica. I will be discussing this skull in the context of the old reports of small hairy hominids from South Asia, and the current sightings of the Malaysia’s Orang Dalam (which, of course, are much different than Bigfoot encounters ).
Blackfeet Bigfoot
Is there new Bigfoot activity stirring in Montana? Bigfoot sightings among Native peoples often indicate a series might soon follow or already might be occurring. Let us turn our eyes to the Blackfeet. And learn lessons from the Sioux. Caption: At left, Bruce Schildt’s kids stand near a line of tracks their father believes might belong to Bigfoot. The tracks were discovered Jan. 1, when the elder Schildt notified Blackfeet Fish and Wildlife and had them investigate. The best track is the one above. Schildt reports the tracks are about 18 inches long and 10 inches wide, and the stride [...]

Attacking Patterson’s “Video”
The countdown is on. Next year will see the 40th anniversary of the so-called “Patterson Film,” more properly labeled the Roger Patterson-Bob Gimlin film footage of a Bigfoot at Bluff Creek, California, taken on October 20, 1967. Expect more and more attempts to examine this episode in cryptozoology in the coming months. Let’s hope they all are not as awful as the one critiqued here today. Andy Kaiser, a reporter at The Grand Rapids Press in Michigan demonstrates the foolishness that still exists among the media when Bigfoot is discussed. Kaiser wrote an article this week entitled "Do Video Enhancements [...]
