The '80s can be categorized by many things, one being the number of fun and adventurous films released during its time. Harry and the Hendersons completely captures this essence, similar to that of ET and the Goonies, with a lovable Bigfoot character and plenty of family fun. When George Henderson (John Lithgow) and his family accidentally run over a Bigfoot creature while on holiday, they take it, which they soon name "Harry", back to their home and grow to love him. With Harry being a part of the family and also a giant Bigfoot creature, the Hendersons do everything they can to protect him from the curious public.
