The new Syfy made-for-TV movie Bigfoot (Space, 9 p.m.) is indeed new, and is not to be confused with the Discovery Channel\u2019s tongue-in-cheek docu-reality series Finding Bigfoot.<\/p>\n

This Bigfoot is a B-movie throwback to the sci-fi exploitation flicks of the mid-1950s, when movie epics such as Tarantula and Creature from the Black Lagoon made an entire Cold War generation of young \u2019uns fearful that atomic spiders the size of pickup trucks really did exist, and that swimming with no clothes on in Amazon River tributaries was a very bad idea.<\/p>\n

And they say you can\u2019t learn anything from watching TV.<\/p>\n

Bigfoot will air here on SPACE, on the same night and time it makes it\u2019s debut on Syfy in the U.S. It follows in the grand tradition of such made-for-TV Syfy epics as Jersey Shore Shark Attack and Arachnoquake.<\/p>\n

Bigfoot\u2019s premise is simple \u2013 a DJ (The Partridge Family\u2019s Danny Bonaduce) and a conservationist (The Brady Bunch\u2019s Barry Williams) form an unlikely union to combat a marauding Bigfoot \u2013 and the promo is even simpler: \u201cTo save, exploit or be killed by Bigfoot? That is the question.\u201d<\/p>\n
