Based on the 1967 incidents at Glacier National Park, “Grizzly Night” chronicles the shocking deaths of two 19-year-old women in separate Grizzly Bear attacks at the park.
While no attacks had occurred in the 57-year history of the park, the two mailings deaths caused a series of events that put Grizzly Bears on the endangered list and caused a series of conservation and park rules to be enacted for safety.
While a previous movie and book chronicled the incidents, this new take offers viewers a fresh take.
The biggest issue I had was the dark setting of the night setting made it difficult to fully see what was happening, but the audio and implied carnage were very effective.
The movie is a nice take on the creature carnage films, as it did not go overboard on excessive gore and focused on the characters and storyline to deliver an effective and engaging story.
3.5 stars out of 5.
