LOL! Not a bad way to start it. I thought this was original, but then I discovered it was a clone of the 1976 remake of KING KONG. I never saw KING KONG until I was 15. I saw this film when I was 9. The film's funky disco music will get stuck in your head! Not to mention the film's theme song by the Yetians. This is the worst creature effects I've ever seen. At the same time this film remains a holy grail of B-movies. Memorable quotes: "Take a tranquilizer and go to bed." "Put the Yeti in your tank and you have Yeti power." I remember seeing this film on MOVIE MACRABE hosted by Elvira. There is one scene where it was like KING KONG in reverse! In KING KONG he grabs the girl and climbs up the building, but in this film he climbs down the building and grabs the girl (who was falling)! Also around that year was another KONG clone MIGHTY PEKING MAN (1977) which came from Hong Kong. There is a lot of traveling matte scenes and motorized body parts. This film will leave you laughing. It is like I said, just another KING KONG clone. Rated PG for violence, language, thematic elements, and some scary scenes.

If you watch this thing, do yourself a favor and don't ask too many questions. Just sit back and enjoy this train wreck for the campy schlock it is. I think this movie would be even better if the people making it hadn't taken it as seriously as they did. Some of the other reviews have gone into more details, but I don't think that's necessary. This thing has to be experienced to be believed. Give it ten minutes and you'll know whether you can stand the rest of it. For B-movie fans, it's a rare and amazing treat. For the rest, it will be a hideous, head-shaking, mess that will have them constantly asking "WHY??" Watching this with one of them will make the movie even more fun. No one will be the same after watching this. It's a little like taking a reality-altering drug.

The Yeti falls in love with the girl because she accidentally made his nipple go hard. That means that someone actually constructed a huge 'fake yeti nipple' out of plastic, with the ability to make it go hard. This film is ready to go that extra mile to be stupid.

This King Kong rip-off features giant Yeti being found in Northern Canada like a frozen ready meal and is promptly melted by a keen scientist on behalf of a multi-millionaire. The millionaire wants to exploit that Yeti for monetary gain and the scientist wants to do science type things with it.

Neither of them really think things through and they melt the thing while it's suspended from a helicopter in a cage and the next thing you know the Yeti is in a bad mood and everyone else is panicking. "Look out - he's got a tree!"

One person exclaims before the Yeti makes friends with the millionaire's niece and nephew, or at least thinks the niece is his other half due to the aforementioned nipple scene. He also gives the two of them while reserving a fish the size of a dolphin for himself.

Romance blossoms (rather one-sidedly) as the Yeti combs the nieces hair with a giant fishbone and after they heal a random gunshot wound the Yeti received, everyone becomes buddies. Except Tony Kendall who of course is a two-faced bad guy working for a rival company on the side.

Yeti should really be one of the greatest bad films ever made, but it's about twenty minutes too long and by the end I wasn't sure if it was made to be aimed at kids, due to the Yeti going mental and killing about a dozen bad guys. You've got to dig that slow-mo reunion scene at the end mind you.

The Yeti himself really looks like he has Barry Gibb's head placed on Burt Reynolds body and did an awful lot of screaming and window smashing, but not much rampaging as he was supposed to be a good guy. There's a lot of interaction between him and the kids which slows the film down, but I don't know - it's hard to hate a yeti film.
