We knew Bigfoot was powerful, but who knew he was such a shithead? I mean, look at what he did to that car! Totally inappropriate, not just for the owner of that vehicle but that tree. What you’re look at is the official one-sheet for Eduardo Sanchez’s Exists, the found footage Bigfoot flick we’ve been buzzing about here at Shock for a bit now. It debuted at SXSW earlier this year and now it’s hitting select theaters and VOD October 24th.
Three new release dates to alert you to… First, Leprechaun: Origins is getting a theatrical run after all. Before it’s VOD release on August 22nd and DVD/Blu-ray release on September 30th, the film is going to get a limited theatrical bow on August 22nd. Check your local listings at that time to see if it’s playing at a theater near you.

Exists, the found footage Bigfoot film which played to SXSW audiences last night, has been picked up by Lionsgate. Eduardo Sanchez, of The Blair Witch Project, directs and if you missed our exclusive interview with him yesterday, follow this link!
In Bigfoot
Eduardo Sanchez has been dabbling in the “found footage” a lot lately. Horror fans saw The Blair Witch Project co-director applying the narrative technique to zombies with “A Ride in the Park,” a segment featured in V/H/S/2. But that was just a short tale. On the feature film side, he opted to follow up 2011’s Lovely Molly with Exists.
Scripted by Jamie Nash (Lovely Molly, Seventh Moon), Exists is a found footage Bigfoot story that finds Sanchez introducing us to brothers Brian and Matt Tover. The siblings secretly sneak out to their Uncle’s long abandoned cabin in East Texas for a party weekend with their friends only to find themselves stalked by the legendary Sasquatch.

Bigfoot is the subject of another “found footage” film. What makes this one different? It comes to us from the co-director of The Blair Witch Project, Eduardo Rodriguez, who knows a thing or two about “found footage.”
His latest, Exists, premieres at SXSW Friday, March 7th.
Though we’ve debuted some promo images and footage from the upcoming film, the secrecy regarding Eduardo Sanchez’s new film Exists is quite similar to his directorial debut The Blair Witch Project. With that we bring you the first glimmer of marketing for the film, some fresh sales art from the American Film Market. Check it out below.
Scripted by his Lovely Molly collaborator Jamie Nash, the description for Sanchez’s new film is this: A group of friends who venture into the remote Texas woods for a party weekend find themselves stalked by Bigfoot. There’s still no trailer or release date information regarding the project, but check back here for any updates.
The fellas at The Bigfoot Report, if you recall, chatted with Bobcat Goldtwait about his Bigfoot film Willow Creek. Now, it’s Eduardo Sanchez’s turn to chat about a similarly-themed Exists and those lovers of the ‘foot at TBR hopped on Skype to talk to the co-creator of The Blair Witch Project.
Exists finds Sanchez reuniting with collaborator Jamie Nash (Lovely Molly) for a film about a group of friends who venture into the remote Texas woods for a party weekend find themselves stalked by Bigfoot. This one is found footage, too. Check out the interview inside!
Eduardo Sanchez is presently at work on Exists, a found footage effort that is out to make Bigfoot scary again. This was the film the Blair Witch co-creator moved on to shortly after completing Lovely Molly. Scripted by Jamie Nash, story details are slim, however, this synopsis is being banded about: A group of friends who venture into the remote Texas woods for a party weekend find themselves stalked by Bigfoot.
While we wait for a trailer or release news, check out the Facebook page which features two pieces of promo art (seen here, yes, they’re raw) and head inside for a CBS news package which has footage from the flick accompanied by an interview with Sanchez. The clips begin at 3:26 in.
