It only took 37 years, but Grizzly II is finally coming out. Not sure why the poster has the subtitle "The Concert" when all other info seems to use "Revenge".

Release date of 2/17/2020? Anyway, really? If ever there wa a film that just SCREAMED for a sequel, this has got to be it. Surprised to see some of the talent that's attached to this.

Surprised to see some of the talent that's attached to this.

It was shot in 1983 or '84.

It was shot in 1983 or '84.

No WAY!!! I'm sure the backstory about the production is interesting.

OK, just skimmed through the EW article. Crazy! I love the stills of Clooney and Laura Dern.

 

[Malcolm R]

Yeah, I debated whether or not I should use 1983 in the thread title, but 2020/21 is its premiere.

 

[Detour (1945)]

Not sure why the poster has the subtitle "The Concert" when all other info seems to use "Revenge".

According to IMDb, "The Concert" was the original subtitle, back in 1983.

 

[ChristopherG]

Can't wait to see this

 

[Detour (1945)]

I personally can't bear to wait much longer.

I watched the workprint version several years ago and it was a blast. It was under the title GRIZZLY II: THE CONCERT. I bought this new "completed" version but haven't watched it yet, although I've heard it's actually worse. With the originally GRIZZLY getting the special edition treatment it's funny to see this one coming back to life. I had always hoped Clooney would help complete the picture and it's really too bad he, Dern and Sheen couldn't have been a part of the release.
