There are apes. And then there are apes. Skirting the planetary ambitions of your Kongs and your Caesars, the family in the new film from the directors of Kumiko, the Treasure Hunter just want a quiet corner of the woods to call their own…
You will laugh, you will shriek, you may cover your eyes. But after 20 minutes of watching, you start to acclimatize, you start to appreciate their different personalities. The longer you stay with them, the more you start to see.
Eli Glasner, CBC
Sasquatch Sunset is a wildly ambitious project that wrestles with reality and fantasy, the familiar and unfamiliar, to stir our emotions and longing for natural beauty.
Monica Castillo, rogerebert.com
Consistently weird and frequently wonderful, Sasquatch Sunset uses its high-concept premise to consider a host of themes: collective living, coexistence with nature, longing stirred by seclusion.

Also Playing
Frankenstein
Frankenstein and Guillermo del Toro might have been made for each other. The movie does not disappoint, a ripping yarn of grand adventure, spectacle, hubris, passion and XXL body parts, a tale of the fantastic that rings the imagination. Screening in 35mm.
Predators
"Punk'd for pedophiles." That's what Jimmy Kimmel called Chris Hansen's true crime/reality TV show, To Catch a Predator (2004-07). Two decades on, David Osit examines why the show made such an impact, for good or ill, and sits down with Hansen himself.
The Outcasts
One of earliest examples of "folk horror", The Outcasts (1982) draws on Irish mythology and folktales to eerie effect. Simple Maura is rumoured to have spent the night with the mythical fiddler Scarf Michael, with dire consequences for all... Screening followed by a panel discussion on Irish horror.
