Based on true events, this terrifying survival thriller follows a rookie park ranger thrust into the fight of her life when Glacier National Park becomes the scene of deadly grizzly attacks. As panic spreads and communication breaks down, she must lead a group of frightened strangers through the darkness, confronting both the untamed wilderness and her own fears. What begins as a quiet summer evening turns into a night of chaos that changes the nation's understanding of wildlife forever.

Doeren clearly has a feel for the bear necessities, but the human interest hardly gets its boots on.

3/5

Grizzly Night delivers real tension and impressive craft—especially in its sound design and atmosphere—but it never quite chooses its identity with the confidence the story demands.

My neighbours cat is a better actor than anyone here. Unsure if satire or not....

It's a grounded and refreshingly unsensational take on an era when naivety was widespread about wildlife and Grizzlies in particular, and a sympathetic treatment of an unprecedented bear attack.

Amazing story telling and great cinematography. Keeps the suspense building the whole time while also telling a compelling, heartbreaking, and dangerous story.
