Grizzly Park

Grizzly Park:

Director: Tom Skull

Characters:

Ranger Bob: Yes, the main character, and the only survivor. Seems he trained the bear and it eats everyone, at least it was a cool movie until that twist, at least it was a unseeable one...

Brian: The rick kid, really annoying and I don’t like him. Lucky for me he gets ripped up, and has both his arms torn off!

Ty: The token black guy, stole money from old people, gets caught in a hunting trap and is eaten by a bear.

Lola: A Latino girl who was caught during a drug raid, no she was not using the drugs though. One of the only likeable characters in the movie, sad to say she doesn’t make it all the way through.

Candy: No, I won’t say anything, just annoying!

Patrick: Got caught impersonating a cop, dresses up as a bear to scare people and ends up with half a head!

Kiki: A Asian chick who poisoned her mom, decides to take a short cut and ends up being eaten by wolves.

Bebe: An annoying stupid chick, at least until you see the gay twist. Gets an implant ripped out, yes, I’m serious.

Michael: The white trash guy, he pretends to be racist but really isn’t, and as unusual as it is he becomes one of the few likeable characters in this movie. He is sadly, eaten.





Plot:
A group of young delinquents are serving community service by helping to clean up a park. But little to they know that the park is more dangerous then ever imagined, with escaped serial killers, killer wolves and a huge ass kicking grizzly bear! Will anyone survive this bloodbath?




Review:
I’m surprised!
This went from a mildly boring movie to a crazy and entertaining creature feature! I’ve heard very little about this movie so I had no expectations and that might be why I liked it so much. It’s got different characters, not the usual stereotypical dusche bags. It’s got some great atmosphere and some nicely done gore. Actually, I thought it was a little funny that the movie had a lot of actual gore but very little blood and on top of that only three on screen deaths and only one of them is caused by the bear! Some of the deaths surprised me because the few characters that I found likeable were killed off way before the people I really hated! The movie looks like it had a nice big budget and I really appreciate that because the last two killer bear movies (Grizzly Rage and Savage Planet) looked like they had no budget at all, so that helps. But a mild warning to you, the plot twist at the end is rather weird and hard to understand, to be honest I’m still trying to work it out...

The directing is very stylist and well done. With good camera angles, nice crane work and some vibrant color contrasts, Tom Skull really outdid himself and I can’t wait to see what he comes up with next! The acting is good for the most part, a few forced dialogue but for the most part very average. I’d recommend this to anyone who enjoys the occasional creature feature or at least the first GOOD killer bear movie since the 80's, check it out, you will not be disappointed!







Gore: A chunk of a head, a head ripped in half, a person ripped in half, a ripped out implant, some severed limbs, and some more! Good stuff!


T&A:
Nope.


Bodycount:8



Final Rating: 3.5/5
