**_"Jaws" rip-off Bigfoot flick (made for TV)_** It's got quite a few positives: Gorgeous alpine locations (filmed at Crested Butte Mtn Ski Resort, Colorado); a very likable 70s' cast, including Robert Logan, Bo Svenson, Yvette Mimieux and Clint Walker; and a decent-looking malevolent creature for a TV film of that era, although you barely get to see him.

place at a ski resort rather than a beach and the monster is a sasquatch rather than a shark. Like "Jaws" there's a scene where a bear is hunted and killed, making the skiers think the slopes are safe again, but the main characters know it's not the culprit; one of them even states that the dead bear's stomach should be opened up to see if human remains can be found. I hope Peter Benchley got royalties! Despite the similarities, "Snowbeast" lacks the suspense and pizazz of "Jaws." It's actually kind of boring, but worthwhile if you're in an alpine mood; or if you're a fan of the four stars. Any film with Clint Walker can't be all bad, after all. Plus Yvette looks cute in a tight ski outfit. FINAL SAY: I've seen "Snowbeast" three times now and always enjoy it despite its lack of originality and slightly lethargic spirit. It's a must for devotees of the Bigfoot mythos, as well as fans of the cast and those wanting to see great alpine locations. Just keep in mind it's a 70's TV movie. It runs 1 hour, 37 minutes. GRADE: C+
