Watch Escanaba in Da Moonlight before you head to deer camp

by admin on November 12, 2009

If you’re a Michigander, chances are you have heard of Jeff Daniel’s film, Escanaba in Da Moonlight. It’s a tale of a Yooper, Rueben Soady, whose nickname is “Buckless Yooper” due to the fact that he has never shot a buck. He is also close to becoming the oldest Soady to shoot a buck and desperately wants to avoid that.

This farcical adventure is reminiscent of Strange Brew with the comedy and “out there” happenings such as the mysterious spirits who haunt the woods in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. It’s a fun flick that should get you all set for the opening weekend of the deer firearm season.
