Tahoe Joe 3: Concrete Wilderness Charges into Production – Final Chapter in Cult Found-Footage Series Brings Bigfoot to the Streets of Reno

Horror Dadz Productions is proud to share an exclusive first look at Tahoe Joe 3: Concrete Wilderness, the final installment in the cult-favorite Tahoe Joe found-footage horror saga. Directed by the duo of Dillon Brown and Michael Rock, the film is currently deep in production and promises to deliver the most outrageous, action-packed, and heartfelt chapter yet.
A surprise indie hit, the Tahoe Joe series has become a sensation in the found-footage horror community, praised for creating a realistic, tension-filled Bigfoot film on a minuscule budget of just $800. Now, the legend of Tahoe Joe takes a shocking turn: the elusive Bigfoot escapes the clutches of black market poachers and unleashes chaos in the middle of downtown Reno, Nevada.


“This one’s all about brotherhood, monster mayhem, and going out with a bang,” says co-director Michael Rock. “Dillon and I love making these films together. It’s more than just horror—it’s friendship, it’s healing, and it’s fun.”
Continuing their passionate mission, Brown and Rock are once again working with a cast made up of military veterans and first responders, many of whom use acting and filmmaking as a form of therapy to combat PTSD. This final entry also incorporates multiple members of the handicap community into the production. Horror Dadz Productions is committed to providing opportunities for everyone to get involved in the magic of indie horror.


With a fully practical Bigfoot suit and explosive B-movie energy, Tahoe Joe 3 is a loving homage to the monster-driven spectacles of the ‘80s and ‘90s. Expect all the creature carnage and absurd action fans have come to love—only bigger, bolder, and more bonkers than ever before.
“We wanted to honor the golden age of creature features while still giving Tahoe Joe the epic sendoff he deserves,” says Dillon Brown. “This is for the fans, for the cast, and for every monster kid who grew up watching VHS tapes until they wore out. This one especially feels deeply personal to me.”


Tahoe Joe 3: Concrete Wilderness is set to wrap filming this summer and will seek distribution in the fall of 2025. For fans of indie horror, found footage, and full-throttle creature chaos—this is one final hunt you won’t want to miss.
