Returning from a hunting trip in the forest, the Henderson family's car hits an animal in the road. At first they fear it was a man, but when they examine the "body" they find it's a "bigfoot". They think it's dead so they decide to take it home (there could be some money in this). As you guessed, it isn't dead. Far from being the ferocious monster they fear "Harry" to be, he's a friendly giant.
Forget the typical monster movie tropes to find a heartwarming tale about a suburban family befriending a gentle, misunderstood giant. This whimsical adventure trades jump scares for genuine wonder and cozy forest magic.
