Sounds like fun! I like this idea!

I think Richiev’s version highlights the goal of escaping the Sasquatch and the government agency which I think is more important than simply escaping the wilderness (she’s a forest ranger… surely this is where she’s most comfortable?).
My only query is why does the government agency want to kill her? I think that maybe needs to hinted at. I’m guessing it’s to keep the Sasquatch’s existence under wraps but I think that motive is important to understanding the story.
See less?.
I think this is heading in the right direction. Does the protagonist believe that he is the last of his kind? If so, I think that's important. As Richiev highlighted, I think it might be good to specify who or what this protagonist is. I'd consider adding another factor - this girl is lost and she'sRead more

I’d consider adding another factor – this girl is lost and she’s trying to find her way home too. If this girl appears in the first act of the film and is a big enough character to effectively provide the story for everything else that happens, then she’s going to be there for the duration so I think she needs to have a goal too. It’s a Buddy Love story.
Maybe (and I kinda like this idea) she spreads fear and he spreads joy. She displays the same characteristics as him but is actually a different species and this could say something about the world we live in today. This could be a nice midpoint or Act II climax reveal.
When he finds a lost girl who seems to be one of his species, a lonely elf who believed he was the last of his kind must find a way to get her home in the hope it will lead him to a family he lost centuries ago.?
They’re both looking for family and he has his own selfish motive intertwined with an altruistic one. I think the bit about him “spreading joy to others” is possibly unnecessary… it tells me a little about his character but I’m not sure it does anything to the plot.
What’s the ending? What’s the message?
Excited to see where this goes next.

Lastly – the opening hook is the logline. We’ve got the isolated house.
A heavy rain storm (fuck it – why not?).
We see our ex-con, shot gun in hand. He’s in the house. Barricaded windows and door.
The locals and corrupt cops trying to get inside.
The recluse is tied to a chair and beaten up, yet oddly quiet.
The dilemma is laid out in simple terms.
The corrupt cop yells out — “Why are you protecting the man who murdered your wife?”.
The sister, who at this point has a closeness with the Ex-con, pleas that he’s innocent.
Then these things happen:
The locals begin chanting “KILL HIM. KILL HIM. KILL HIM”.
The slight hint of a creepy smile grows on the recluse’s face.
We see a corrupt cop sneak through the back and only the sister hears something from round back.
While this happens, the door is thumping with people trying to get in…
Then…
We go back to a week before…
Or something like that ha.
