Pithecus happens to mean "Ape or Monkey" in greek. Many scientists believe apes and humans rose from a common ancestor in the pithecus species. The main perceived protagonist in our movie happens to be a bigfoot which some scientist suggest is related to the Gigantopithecus, see picture below. It makes sense to call this movie pithecus because what ever is out in the mountains terrorizing the humans in this film, is related to apes and man in certain ways. Bigfoots, if they exist, may be a part of the long line of pithecus, species.
Expect script writing to continue in the next couple of weeks.
