Synopsis

Animal enthusiast Peter Gaulke (Steve Zahn) and his sidekick Fred Wolf (Allen Covert) host an ailing wildlife TV show "Strange Wilderness," but its ratings are declining sharply. Desperate to save the show, Peter hatches a Hail Mary scheme to find the one animal that could truly turn the show around and change the nature-show landscape forever - Bigfoot.

STRANGE WILDERNESS is an outrageous, freewheeling, road comedy that takes viewers on a treacherous trek to the jungles of Ecuador in South America with one of the most inept groups of misfits ever assembled for this gruelling task.

The film marks the directorial debut of former SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE writer Fred Wolf (JOE DIRT, DICKIE ROBERTS: FORMER CHILD STAR) with a screenplay by Wolf and Peter Gaulke.
