'THE TOWN THAT CRIED BIGFOOT' | A True Crime Documentary That Unravels a Hoax, a Murder, and a Town’s Desperate Gamble
BritFlicks has added the official trailer for 'THE TOWN THAT CRIED BIGFOOT,' a gripping new true crime documentary directed by Mark Dossett.
Set in the harsh winter of 1978, the film revisits a strange but true event in rural Virginia, where four town council members masterminded a fake Bigfoot sighting to bring attention—and desperately needed income—to their dying town. What began as a clever hoax soon spiralled into a media frenzy, unexpected financial gain, and ultimately, the town’s first unsolved murder.
Using a mix of archival footage, interviews, and reconstruction, 'THE TOWN THAT CRIED BIGFOOT' explores how one bold lie turned into something far more dangerous.
