Inspired by a true story, an oddball group of cops, criminals, tourists and teens converge in a Georgia forest where a 500-pound black bear goes on a murderous rampage after unintentionally ingesting cocaine.
Practical Effects
The bear is mostly CGI but the gore is deliciously practical.
Acting
Alden Ehrenreich's grief-stricken drug runner is weirdly committed.
Direction
Elizabeth Banks commits to the bit harder than expected.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
The real 'Cocaine Bear' overdosed in 1985 and is now taxidermied at a Kentucky mall. No humans were harmed.
This film rode the wave of 'elevated horror-comedy' post-Get Out but critics split on whether it was smart-dumb or just dumb-dumb.
