Bigfoot
Bigfoot
2012
Written by Brian Brinkman and Micho Rutare
Directed by Bruce Davison
Packed to the gills with crazy action, former stars, and massive carnage, Asylum’s Bigfoot is an entertaining SyFy feature that also doubles as political commentary. Bigfoot is relentless with action sequences, the very first shots are of various animals being devoured up the food chain, until we reach man shooting a bear. Man who is quickly taken out by a huge Bigfoot! Bigfoot will run rampage through the local town of Deadwood, smashing cars, trucks, and chomping the heads off of people. There is an energy in Bigfoot that keeps it chugging along, character dismissing any attempts to stop and think as they rush into one crazy plan after another, all while Bigfoot is smashing and eating.
Bigfoot is a sequel in spirit to Mega Python vs. Gateroid. Like that film, it features two faded stars (instead of 80s pop icons Tiffany and Debbie Gibson, we have former 60s child stars Danny Bonaduce and Barry Williams) who argue constantly. The monster battle aspect has been dumped for just constant monster action. Bigfoot features more minor stars in supporting roles than MPvG, but both do feature a musical icon getting killed just after they appear (Micky Dolenz gets chomped in MPvG, while Alice Cooper gets punted in Bigfoot!) Even the ending is similar, but more on that in a little bit.
Bigfoot is part of the Icy May series for MOSS – The Mysterious Order of the Skeleton Suit. And if you are wondering why something for May is showing up in June on TarsTarkas.NET, you must be new here! Heck, our March theme (March of Godzilla 2013) is still going on! Further Icy May entries include Gaddaar at both Beth Loves Bollywood and at FourDK, Yeti Curse of the Snow Demon at The Horror!?, Snow Devils at Exploder Button, Fist of B-List meets The Iceman Cometh, and The Great Silence at Teleport City.

Atlantic Rim hits trailer!
Asylum’s Atlantic Rim has hit trailer, and has a possible alternate title they are filming under (From the Sea) that got spoilered by some local newspapers. As seen in the trailer, a monster that looks like a crazy mutant dinosaur attacks, so they send in three giant robot fighters to go take it down. And David Chokachi’s character is the loose cannon who will end up saving the day, because we always need one of those. Luckily, the robots are color-coded, which makes Atlantic Rim‘s robots easier to tell apart than the ones in Transformers! Which title will Atlantic Rim show up as on the shelves? Hard to say after Age of the Hobbits got lawsuit smacked into a new title.
Atlantic Rim is directed by Jared Cohn, and stars David Chokachi, Jackie Moore, Treach, and Graham Greene
AE: Apocalypse Earth – Asylum gets in on the After Earth craze!
We are green on this planet, not blue. Death to blue!
If you were worried The Asylum didn’t have their own after Earth mockbuster, put your fears to rest. AE: Apocalypse Earth stars Adrian Paul and Richard Grieco, and follows the adventures of people who have left a ruined Earth:
A group of refugees from Earth land on an exotic planet, where they must fight ruthless aliens to survive.
May 28th is the release date, Thunder Levin directs and writes (he did the same for American Warships and also wrote the upcoming Sharknado!)
Costa Rican model Bali Rodriguez plays a mysterious woman who is green.
Asylum gives us the Age of Dinosaurs!
It’s time once again to be made happy by The Asylum, as they give us yet another crazetacular monster feature. Age of Dinosaurs is like Jurassic Park 2, except without all that disappointment because we’re expecting the camp!
Using breakthrough flesh-regeneration technology, a biotech firm creates a set of living dinosaurs. But when the creatures escape their museum exhibit and terrorize Los Angeles, a former firefighter must rescue his teenage daughter from the chaos brought on by the Age of Dinosaurs.
Joseph Lawson directs a Hank Woon Jr. script. Treat Williams and Ronny Cox star, along with Jillian Rose Reed and Roger Lim. Official site link. Age of Dinosaurs will drop May 7th! Until then, you have plenty of time to guess the age of these dinosaurs. Remember: some of these dinosaurs dye their hair, so lack of grey doesn’t automatically mean they are young!
2-Headed Shark Attack in real life!
Unlike the film 2-Headed Shark Attack from Asylum, this 2-headed shark is just a fetus that probably would have died. But life has found a way to borrow from SyFy movies.
This particular two-head is a bull shark embryo found inside a bull shark caught off the coast of Florida. The fisherman shared his find with scientists who published a paper on the specimen in the Journal of Fish Biology. Two headedness is called dicephalia, for those of you who want some big words to use to impress people in the bar after work. This is the first known 2-headed bull shark specimen.
The shark probably wouldn’t have lived because the two heads would cause problems when chasing prey, as well as a stunted body.
