In case you haven't seen Ivan Marx's incredibly boring "documentary" ( he says it is "authentic") "The Legend of Bigfoot", here is a link. I hope that Bil Munns, Sweaty Yeti and BigfootBookman wil get to work on this right away.

Ps the money shots are at about 16 min, 25 min, and 1 hr and 1:07. Anyone who can watch this snoozer from beginning to end is a better man than I am, Gunga Din.

There is a condensed version here.

We consider it disingenuous to advertise competing Bigfoot communities by taking advantage of the free and open nature of our own.

Bigfoot isn't just an elusive animal out there in the woods. It's an adult fantasy concept that is subject to competitive subcultural factions.

I give it 4 stars. It's possibly the best pro-Bigfoot documentary ever made because it's fairly obvious that Marx does not believe that Bigfoot exists. The film is all pure irony and thumbs its nose at Bigfooters. Look at my silly fake Bigfoot while I guarantee that it is real.

I once made the mistake of thinking that that is Marx doing the narrating. It isn't him. That makes it even better. This film is a true gem of B-Movie camp.

I've always thought it was Marx narrating. I just looked at the full cast and credits on imdb, but nothing. Who was it?

This is stuck in my memory...

Once before I mentioned Marx narrating the film. LTC8K6 (or somebody else here) said it isn't Marx doing the talking. I just assumed he knew that somehow.
 
Here we go. It was Dfoot, not LTC.

Ivan Marx fascinates me. His film appears to be a satire and exploitation of Bigfootery. Why and how would he produce his own film (1971) about the legend including showing a Bigfoot, and at the same time never mention Roger Patterson (1967) in the film? He is the narrator of his own film and his demeanor and tone is what intrigues me. It sounds so phony and contrived that I'm compelled to think it may have been intentionally done that way. Or, that Marx recognized that Bigfooters are so gullible that you can feed them virtually anything regardless of how ridiculous it may be. I feel something subtle was going on with Marx and I think he knew full well that Bigfoot was fully mythical.

Oh Marx knew alright. I've heard both versions of his movie. The original started out with his own voice, but he sounded too much like a hayseed so they replaced his voice with an actor's voice. That voice is the one you hear on the version that's been seen the most (and that you can find on YouTube today).

I don't know which was worse really. That actor voice-over is pretty hammy, but Marx' original voice was recorded with the film and was of poor quality. Guess they went for studio sound once the film was picked up for distribution.

I don't know if Dfoot knew what he was talking about, but I just assumed that he did.
 
I watched the film again on Netflix streaming. In the first minute Marx faces the camera and gives an introduction. The voice doesn't properly match his lips. We aren't hearing the original recording of that scene. If it is Marx narrating, then he dubbed his own voice in that introduction.
 
Both Marx and the voice were dubbed in. From what I understood "Patty" was doing the narrating.
 
Skeptical Greg---

In regards to the link you gave, and the elusiveness of those animals, and your question as to why there are no unambiguous photos/videos--what I was told is that the Klingons visited earth and made contact with the Bigfoot first. They made available to them cloaking device technology. I hope this answers your question.
