Your summer movie favorite is back! Based on an absolutely true story, COCAINE BEAR tells the story of a black bear who finds a load of coke lost in the woods and has the trip of his life -- unfortunately with very bloody consequences for anyone who gets too close. In France, by the way, the movie is called "Crazy Bear". Both titles are accurate.

A bad movie in the best sense of the word, COCAINE BEAR is trashy fun for anyone who wants to switch off their brain without having to feed it to a bear. With 80s music and aesthetics, lots of fake blood and a group of dedicated actors whose faces you somehow recognize, this splatter comedy never takes itself too seriously. The director of PITCH PERFECT 2 and the screenwriter of THE BABYSITTER: KILLER QUEEN make sure of that! Incidentally, the real bear simply died right after doing coke. But the true version of the story is of course... Yesterday's "snow".

ENG: Based on "true" events! A black bear finds a large amount of cocaine in the woods and has the trip of a lifetime -- unfortunately with bloody consequences for anyone who gets too close. A bad movie in the best sense, COCAINE BEAR is trashy fun and a splatter comedy that never takes itself too seriously. With 80's music and aesthetics, lots of fake blood and a cast of dedicated actors whose faces you all sort of know. (Disclaimer: The real bear just died right after his coke binge, without going on a killing spree in the forest). (English with German subtitles)
