When a dispute occurs between a logging operation and a nearby Native American tribe, Dr. Robert Verne and his wife, Maggie, are sent in to mediate.

Robert captures a bear cub for testing and soon finds himself the target of an angry mutant grizzly.

Far too much emphasis on the moral aspect of land, ownership and the environment, and that would all be ok if this had an ounce of suspense to it. Instead, you're treated to a nature program showing the Indians right to protect their land from the white man and his paper mill destroying the land for close to an hour with little else holding it together. Monster doesnt show up until 1 hour in and prior to that its 1 kill and mostly drama between the doctor, his wife and the people they deal with in the small forest village. One of the few kills, the sleeping bag scene, is so bad and so outvof left field it almost gives the movie a worse wrap than it already has. Meh at best. Stick with some other creature features that actually focus on the genre. This really isnt worth the time.

Another story about a greedy corporation poisoning the environment. Thankfully this didn't get as preachy as other '70s movies, "Silent Running" or "No Blade of Grass" come to mind. Actually, it didn't have time to because the evil polluting company inadvertently create More

Filmed in 1978 and shot in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada this horror film is a product of its times. Low budget and gory though director John Frankenheimer did delete some violent content. This is one of those weird "Eco horror". Nature strikes back essentially. Toxic chemicals create a mutate More
