The It Goes on All Fours Project

It Goes on All Fours follows Stephan, Kaiah, and Rauly on a Native-run hunting expedition in the remote Bulgarian wilderness.

Stephan, driven mad by the recent disappearance of his father, has convinced his likewise emotionally troubled friends that this hunting trip is exactly the sort of therapy they need.

But as the group confronts unsettling local rituals, enigmatic figures, and a fearsome monster, they slowly realize that Stephan might have gotten them tangled with dark forces far beyond what they imagined.

Stephan’s deepening involvement and growing greed boils over as he attempts to finish what his father started and steal the powerful secrets the leaders of this exclusive hunt possess. 

This leads to a thrilling and thematic conclusion as the group is pitted face-to-face against the Skinwalker – a beast of tribal legend, and a manifestation of the price of rapacity.

The Monster

When watching a monster film, it’s expected that the main draw of the movie should be the design of the monster. The more unique and more terrifying the beast, the better.

Designed by renowned creature designer Keith Thompson, It Goes on All Fours features a “yee naaldlooshii” – a skinwalker, which has many specific design features to tell its story visually. Shackles leave marks on its wrists and ankles, pointing to the enslaved nature of the beast. It leaves frost where it steps, as its blood runs frozen from its torn-out heart of ice.

In Navajo mythology, a skinwalker is an evil witch capable of transforming between beast and human form. Our monster is stuck somewhere in-between the process, sporting a human face growing out of the front side of its’ vicious snout. When standing on its hind legs and peering at you from the darkness of the woods, you could mistake it as a fellow man… but once it goes on all fours, the beast reveals its true vicious nature.
