\"\"<\/a>I don\u2019t think anyone could predict that one of the weirdest drug crime stories would turn in to a bona fide cult horror comedy– and then directed by Elizabeth Banks, of all people. Suffice it to say, though, \u201cCocaine Bear\u201d despite being one of the many movie memes of the year, it does live up to being a wildly funny, and gory nature run amok movie. Banks\u2019 comedic sensibilities are perfect for what is such an unabashedly silly horror comedy. \u201cCocaine Bear\u201d is a movie that you either love or hate. It\u2019s a movie you\u2019ll accept in to your heart, or just outright reject with extreme prejudice. Oddly enough I haven\u2019t seen too much middle ground when it applies to reacting to the movie and its success.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Based on real events, \u201cCocaine Bear\u201d is set in the 1980\u2019s where a massive shipment of cocaine is accidentally dropped in a forest in Chattahoochee. After a massive 500 pound black bear consumes the giant shipment of cocaine, it becomes a rabid, murderous coke fiend, slaughtering random hikers and passersby. Now it\u2019s up to a single mom, a lone cop, and a group of gangsters on the hunt for the shipment, to find the black bear and put a stop to its murder spree.<\/p>\n

\u201cCocaine Bear\u201d hits the ground running a movie that\u2019s primarily a bear attack movie with considerably interesting motivation. The killer bear in question is high on cocaine, and is fiending for more. It then clashes with a lot of hapless victims, and folks that have immediate access to the cocaine. This amounts to a lot of great action, some hilarious physical comedy, and brutal gore. The titular bear of cocaine is ruthless in its efforts to find more of its drug, and it tears through just about everyone in order to acquire it. The cast are all very good in their respective roles, to boot.<\/p>\n

While I\u2019d be hard pressed to call it a masterpiece of its sub-genre (it\u2019s not even one of the best movies of 2023), \u201cCocaine Bear\u201d is a great movie to watch with a small party, some beers, chips, and a big bowl.<\/p>\n

There are almost five minutes worth of Deleted and Extended Scenes for the film.<\/p>\n
