We Want to Believe: Bigfoot Hunt Part 1 (2021)

When you’re a paranormal investigation show filming smack dab in the middle of Bigfoot country, it makes sense to go on a Bigfoot hunt. 

And that’s exactly what the We Want to Believe team do in this, the first of a three-part adventure that finds the team in search of The Hide and Seek Champion of the World! 

In this introductory episode, writer/director Jason Hewlett explores the Bigfoot legend, its origins, and why the topic fascinates him. He and investigator Sarah Jane join Chris Bose, and Indigenous storyteller who’s steeped in Bigfoot lore, on an outing where he describes a terrifying encounter he had with the creature, setting the stage for the hunt to come!

Writer/director statement: Growing up in Bigfoot country, I’ve been fascinated by stories about the monster since I was a boy. Episodes of In Search of and Arthur C. Clarke’s Mysterious World which feature Sasquatch warranted repeated viewing, and I bought and read whatever books I could on the subject. When Indigenous storyteller Chris Bose told me of his encounters with Sasquatch, I knew our web series had to dive into the topic. And that’s what we do with this first episode of The Hunt for Bigfoot.

Check out these pics from the episode:

The We Want to Believe team is cinematographer Brandon Knippelberg, music/sound/executive producer Shawn Knippelberg, writer/director/creator Jason Hewlett, lead investigator/executive producer Peter Renn, investigator Sarah Jane, and cinematographer/executive producer Marcus Flor.

New episodes appear once a month at JoBlo's The Paranormal Network. Big thanks to Arrow in the Head frontman John Fallon for coming on board as producer, and JoBlo himself, Berge Garabedian, for guiding us as executive producer.

In the meantime, keep up with our shenanigans via the official We Want to Believe Facebook page!

The Hunt for Bigfoot Part 2 is coming in February!

Top 5 quotes from the Rambo franchise

It's Rambo Day, which means it's a day we celebrate all things Rambo. And no, we didn't make that up. It's a real thing, and part of the lead in to Rambo: Last Blood coming out on Friday. We were going to celebrate by doing a Top 5 favourite Rambo kills, but the fine folks at Arrow in the Head already did something like that, so I figured why not share our favourite Rambo quotes. I like quotes. Quotes are good. Anyway, here we go with our Top 5, in no particular order: 5) "They drew first blood." - John Rambo, First Blood (1982) Because it's always cool when the hero references the title of the movie in a quote. 4) "Live for nothing, or die for something. Your call." - John Rambo, Rambo (2008) Because it's 100-per-cent truth, and is the exclamation mark on a great monologue by Stallone. 3) "I could have killed 'em all. I could kill you. In town, you're the law. Out here, it's me. Don't push it, or I'l...
