Willow Creek Page #5

Synopsis: Jim and his girlfriend Kelly are visiting the infamous Willow Creek, the alleged home of the original Bigfoot legend - the tale of huge ape like creatures that roam the forests of North America. It was there that in 1967, the legendary beast was captured on film and has terrified and mystified generations since. Keen to explore more than 50 years of truth, folklore, misidentifications and hoaxes, Kelly goes along for the ride to keep Jim happy, whilst he is determined to prove the story is real by capturing the beast on camera. Deep in the dark and silent woods, isolated and hours from human contact, neither Kelly or Jim are prepared for what is hidden between the trees, and what happens when the cameras start rolling...

I think it's, um, scary, this road.

Oh.

I mean, we're driving

in the day time.

Yeah.

Hmm.

What did they,

what did they ride in on,

horses or something or...?

Yeah, but this is how you

get to the PGF site now.

Hang on.

Oh, oh.

Bumpity, bumpity.

Last stop for the car.

Ah.

We got to hike the

rest of the way in.

But babe, this is it.

We're going to get there.

Yes, we are. Can we get

out of the car now?

I would love that. Let's do it.

We're here.

We're here.

We're leaving the car behind

- and this is it, babe.

- This is it.

This is the road that

leads to Bluff Creek.

Ooh.

To the famed

Patterson-Gimlin film site.

Whoa.

What do you think?

- I didn't...

- Holy sh*t.

I don't think I

pictured it like this.

This is awesome.

Babe, this is the dream I've

had since I was eight years old.

- I know.

- Thank you.

I'm happy to be here,

honey. Come on.

Let's go.

Yup.

Ooo, is there a

Starbucks on the way?

How long did you say it takes?

Mmm, air is clean.

- And, another brilliant observation, honey.

- Shut up.

Check out that moss.

Whoa.

Ah, sweet.

Poop!

Whoa.

Oh, look at all that.

That could be Bigfoot scat.

Yeah, or it could be bear sh*t.

Or, Pope sh*t.

OK.

Ahh.

It's prickly.

Ouch!

Here, babe.

Grab the camera.

- Get some of me walking through.

- Sure. Why not? I'd love to.

I like nature.

- Oh.

- Aw!

Yeah. Are you all right?

- Yes.

- Yeah?

- All right. Just watch yourself.

- Oh, right in the nose.

Oh, sh*t.

Ooh.

Are you getting this?

Oh, yeah, I'm getting it.

All right.

"Are you getting this, huh?"

Watch your step here.

Yeah, I'm trying to, to film

and walk at the same time

in a treacherous area.

Bear with me.

Not even a path.

What the f***?

How do we know we're

going in the right direction?

Just keep going, babe.

We're almost there.

This is f***ing ridiculous.

Ah.

Ooh.

So, by my estimations,

we're about an hour

to an hour and a half

from the PGF film site.

Turn off the camera.

- What?

- Turn off the...

So, we decided to set up camp here.

Check this out.

Jim?

- Hold on, let me just get this.

- I need you to...

It's amazing to think that

we're in the same woods

that Roger Patterson and Bob

Gimlin were in 45 years ago

when they saw that creature.

What do you think?

It's very pretty.

Babe.

Hey, babe, come here.

What?

Come here. I want to

show you something.

Come here. I got a

little surprise for you.

Really?

Yeah, really.

OK. Bring it over here.

No, no, no. Come on.

Follow me.

Oh my God.

Told you.

Wow.

This is insane.

You did good.

All right, I'm going in.

- You are?

- Yeah.

Oh my God. OK.

So hot.

Yeah. Whoa!

Oh my God.

Whoa!

Oh! It's cold.

Yeah?

Baby, I am proud of you.

How cold do you think that is?

Should I get in there?

No.

Whoa.

I like that you had no hesitation jumping

in that water even though I didn't get in.

What is my sock doing in the tree?

Oh, what sock?

Huh. That's weird.

Oh my God.

What the f***?

Honey, I want to go home.

I wouldn't worry about it.

It's probably just a bear.

Just a bear!? Oh, great.

That makes me feel good.

All right. Well, just

help me put it back up.

Look, they're more afraid

of us than we are of them.

I don't know. I'm pretty afraid of them.

Actually, just stand

there and record.

I think that'll be,

that'll be much better.

Oh. Oh, are you telling me

you don't want me to film?

Uh, yeah?

What is it?

What is it?

I don't know, but it

sounded really big.

What?

It was right behind me.

I think it moved over there.

Are you serious?

Can you see it?

No, I don't see anything.

I just heard it.

Huh?

Ahh.

Oh.

Did you see that?

Yeah.

- Wow.

- It freaked me out so much.

Yeah. Me, too.

- I think we found our visitor.

- Oh my God, yeah.

He did have big feet.

Ah.

Come in.

OK, back in the tent.

What?

Nothing.

It's not going to be

that kind of night.

I hope you know.

You know, you dragged

me all the way out here.

So, listen.

You know I love you, right?

Yes.

- And, I've never felt...

- I love you.

I've never felt this

way about anyone.

Ever.

And, uh...

Well.

Kelly,

will you marry me?

Oh, I don't know what to say. Um...

Well, you could start

by saying, "Yes."

Look, I really care about you.

I do. I, I really do.

I just, I think it

might be too soon.

Wow.

What if we move in together?

I've been thinking about it a lot

and I really, I want to be with you.

I do.

Move in, in LA?

If you'd be willing to do that.

Yeah, I would.

You would?

Yeah, Kelly, come on.

All right, I guess I'll take that.

You'll take that?

For now.

I love you.

Are you going to turn that off?

I don't know.

It might be good for your career.

Oh, really? Do you want me

to have that kind of career?

- Hmm.

- Yeah?

- OK.

- I guess I could turn it off.

Yes.

Beep.

- OK.

- Yeah, nice try.

Really turn it off now.

Baby, come on.

Did you hear that?

Hear what?

Why are you putting the

camera with the light on.

I heard knocking.

What's knocking?

Knocking.

I don't hear anything, honey. I'm

going to go try to get some sleep...

and you should, too. Come on.

- Just lie down.

- All right.

- Honey, come on. It's nothing.

- I know. I will, I will.

It's probably, you know,

an animal or something.

Just go back to bed.

- No, you come with me. Come on.

- I will. I will. I'm coming.

- Did you hear that?

- Yes, I heard that.

What are you going to do with that?

I'm trying to see if I

can see something.

- In case...

- No, turn that off.

I'm cold.

That was knocking.

I don't know what that means.

Sasquatches, they,

they are known for

knocking pieces of wood together.

It's a way to communicate.

That could be, you know,

trees falling or something,

- or maybe...

- Are you serious?

It can be a bear, you know.

- A bear?

- There's animals...

Grabbing a piece of wood

and hitting it against

another piece of wood?

Bears can break into cars,

babe, they can do anything.

Did you leave food out?

No.

It's not anything, babe.

Just tell me.

You're just trying

to make me scared.

- Maybe...

- I'm wondering if I should go...

What?

Oh, that guy,

remember, down in town,

who said, "Don't go right there."

That's probably him f***ing with us.

It's possible.

Crazy people over here.

Oh, I'd be more than

happy to f*** with him.

I'm sorry. That sounded like...

Like what?

A vocalization.

A vocalization?

- Yeah.

- Of what?

- Sasquatch.

- Of a person?

A person can make that sound?

Shh, shh.

What if we turn off the light?

Do you think that would be good?

Whatever it is will go away.

I don't want it to go away.

- Honey, I do.

- This is good.

I don't want something

f***ing with us out there.

This is, I knew this is...

People don't want us

to come out here,

so people are probably

f***ing with us.

I don't know.

Yeah, right, yeah,

whatever, completely.

- It's f***ing cold. I know that much.

- I know.

Put your arm around me. I'm cold.
