🎬 Big Legend (2018) 🔥🔥
IMDb Rating: 4.5/10

Big Legend (2018) is an independent horror film that blends mythical creature lore with intense survival drama. Directed by Justin Lee, the film explores themes of grief, vengeance, and the battle for closure, set against the eerie backdrop of the Pacific Northwest’s dense, dark forests.

The story follows Eric (played by Kevin Makely), a former soldier deeply affected by the disappearance of his fiancée, Natalie (played by Summer Spiro). Natalie vanished during a camping trip in the wilderness, and Eric’s grief leads him to believe that a monstrous creature may be responsible for her disappearance. Consumed by this belief and driven by the need for closure, Eric embarks on a treacherous journey back into the forest to confront the creature and uncover the truth.

The film builds tension as Eric navigates the dense forest, using his military training and survival skills to fend off the increasingly bizarre and dangerous phenomena. As he ventures deeper into the heart of the wilderness, Eric’s worst fears are realized—the mythical beast known as the "Big Legend" lurks in the shadows, a force of nature that seems more than capable of fulfilling its mythical terror. The film’s climactic showdown between Eric and the beast is a tense, visceral battle, where survival instincts and the emotional toll of grief collide.

While the film does a solid job in its creature-feature thrills and survival drama, the character-driven narrative struggles to fully connect with audiences, as some emotional beats and story arcs feel underdeveloped. However, if you enjoy mythological horrors and personal quests for redemption, Big Legend delivers enough suspense and chilling moments to hold your attention.
