Capturing Bigfoot

Capturing Bigfoot – documentary

Capturing Bigfoot is a 2026 American documentary film directed by Marq Evans. The film reports new information about the often-cited 1967 film clip purported to show a walking Bigfoot, known as the Patterson–Gimlin film, and the men who filmed it, Roger Patterson and Robert “Bob” Gimlin. Capturing Bigfoot is based on new and revealing film footage given to Evans in 2022 which had been locked away in a safe for decades, as well as interviews with Patterson’s son Clint Patterson and people associated with the 1967 film – Wikipedia

“…I could not see the zipper; and I still can’t.” – John R. Napier, then director of the primate biology program at the Smithsonian Institution.

“Experts have presented quite a few arguments against the film’s authenticity, but have not been able to flatly discount it. John R. Napier, then director of the primate biology program at the Smithsonian Institution, examined the film some 30 times and wrote Patterson in May 1968, “There was nothing I could see that could conclusively indicate a hoax.” In his 1973 book, Bigfoot: The Yeti and Sasquatch in Myth and Reality, Napier explained his having told Argosy magazine not to dismiss the film. “In effect,” he wrote, “what I meant was that I could not see the zipper; and I still can’t.””
