“From the mind behind the mega-hit Syfy show you’ve probably never heard of (EUREKA) comes a tribute to all those no-budget Syfy original movies and the “so bad, they’re good” films that inspired them. Move over Roger Corman, step back Ed Wood, make way on your weekend programming schedule Mr. Stern, because here comes Andrew Cosby’s 365 DAYS OF SCI-FI.
And it’s all happening here! Each day, your friends at CHUD will bring you a brand new bad movie pitch — the best of the worst title Cosby can come up with, no matter where he’s at or what he’s doing, rain or shine, drunk or sober. That’s a whole year of the quality concepts you’ve come to expect from the network that brought you MANSQUITO and SHARKTOPUS.”
And now… DAY FOURTY-EIGHT:
“And now an answer to that burning question: Why aren’t there more reality series starring cryptozoological creatures?”
– Andy Cosby (Twitter)
“The only thing bigger than his feet… was his heart.”
Pitch:
Part historical retrospective, part social satire, this hilarious and heart-wrenching docudrama takes a hard look at modern celebrity culture and our continued fascination with fame through the lens of a film crew chronicling Bigfoot’s final days, his troubled childhood, his struggle with addiction, fading celebrity, the highs and lows of his career both on and off the screen, and the desperate lengths to which he’s willing to go to recapture those glory days of yesteryear. This is a complete behind-the-scenes look at one of the world’s most reclusive celebrities, examining everything from the infamous Willow Creek footage and guest spots on “In Search of,” to the devastating loss of the lead role in “Harry & the Hendersons” and his brief but memorable brush with greatness while guest-starring on “The Six Million Dollar Man.” Those days are long gone, but now the big guy’s back and looking for his next big break. After all, if Travolta can do it, so can he.
Nick Says: What a great role for Dan Hedaya.
