To Catch a Yeti (TV Movie 1994). 1h 35m | PG

“It doesnu0026#39;t get much worse than this folks. To Catch A Yeti is bad in every respect, beginning with the creature itself. The bug-eyed gooning animatronic representing said beast is an insult to cinema, with movement literally restricted to the thing being dragged along, on a poorly disguised sled, through the snow. Similarly the annoying coos which emanate from the Yetiu0026#39;s static plastic face are an annoying as they are bizarre.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eBeyond that the production values are below par from childrenu0026#39;s television, never mind a movie, and its star, one Meat Loaf, though tasked with the difficult job astonishingly manages to be the worst feature in the entire film, proving once and for all that rock music saved many a movie audience from his bewilderingly insensate acting style.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003ePlot and characters, in as much as they exists, are instantly forgettable, and quite honestly youu0026#39;ll spend the entire film being obsessively irritated by the Yeti. Yes, it really is that lamentable.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eArguably children might get something out of this on a Saturday morning while mom and dad enjoy a lie in, but an enjoyable family film this isnu0026#39;t.”
