Ahead of its Toronto International Film Festival debut next week, the first look has been unleashed for The Yeti. In the video, we see a group of people gathered inside a shack. The scene is intense as something makes grunts and groans just outside. Men stand with rifles in the air, ready to shoot the creature lurking outside.
The film, which blends classic monster movie vibes with modern filmmaking, promises to be a wild ride. This chilling film is set in the remote wilds of northern Alaska. A famous adventurer and an oil tycoon vanish without a trace. Their kids embark on a desperate rescue mission. However, they discover that something far older and more dangerous than the Arctic itself has awakened.

The cast features both familiar and new faces, including Brittany Allen (“Dexter: Original Sin”), Eric Nelsen (A Walk Among the Tombstones), and Corbin Bernsen (“Psych”).

The film was written and directed by William Pisciotta and Gene Gallerano. The duo said they wanted to create an “elevated creature feature, harkening back to the golden age of monster movies when horror relied on practical effects, suspense, and well-rounded characters.”
