The Cornshukker is a mythical creature who has lived simply and peacefully with Nature. But now he is besieged by urban sprawl. With nowhere else to go, he is forced to deal with varmints and outlandishly- odd townsfolk. As his food supply diminishes, The Cornshukker is confronted by the bigoted Old Man Thomas. In an act of desperation, The Cornshukker is forced to do the unthinkable. His existence is in peril, and the mysterious world he inhabits could be destroyed. Only Nature and the townsfolk will decide his fate.

This Lynchian, Midwestern-filmed, nightmare fueled movie sadly never found the audience it deserved. It was released on an extremely limited VHS in the 90s but was virtually lost until now. Director Brando Snider brilliantly manages to mix the dark comedy elements of TWIN PEAKS and ERASERHEAD, with actual Bigfoot and mythical monster folklore elements in a strange and unique fever dream you will never forget.
