Cocaine Bear

Based on the incredible true story, director Elizabeth Banks’ crazy ursine romp through a forest in Georgia is an insane ride, and a ton of grizzly, grisly fun. Also the last film of the wonderful Ray Liotta, this highly unstable horror-comedy follows the titular American black bear who, having ingested the full load of an airborne drug-runner’s dumped stash, runs utterly, beserkly amok, chasing down the multiple oddball inhabitants of an idyllic forest park, whilst supremely charged on 75lb of uncut narcotics. 

Playfully anarchic, Banks’ caper is as daft as it is entertaining, never taking itself too seriously, which is for the best. Strap in, and follow the bear!
