Just like Grizzly, Claws knows that it's Jaws and goes for it.
It was also released in Canada and Mexico as Grizzly 2, but it's not a sequel.
It was also called Fauces, which means Jaws, in Spain.
A bunch of poachers come to Alaska and decide that they want to hunt a grizzly bear. They should have killed it, but no, they just wound it instead. Now the bear wants revenge - yes, this time it's personal - and it goes all in on bear-on-human violence.
Only hunter Jason Monroe (Jason Evers) and an Alaskan named Henry (Anthony Caruso) can stop this wild beast. But do we want that? Humanity has it coming. Even if the bear once attacked Monroe, I'm always going to be on the side of the bear.
I mean, they call it the Satan Bear. I'm not sure I could love this bear any more than I do.
Jason has gone a little Ahab on this whole thing and his obsession with the bear has caused his wife Chris (Carla Layton) to leave him and start sleeping with their son Bucky's (Buck Monroe) Boy Scout leader Howard (Glenn Sipes), which is the ultimate slap in the face to a rugged outdoorsman like Jason. There are a ton of flashbacks to better days, but do we care? No. Would we rather watch the bear kill a sheriff and some scientists dumb enough to think their inventions could stop nature's perfect land-based predator? Yes.
By the end, Jason, Henry, Howard and forest commissioner Ben Chase (Leon Ames) are in the woods, putting their lives on the line and man, Jason has to be conflicted here, what with trying to kill the animal that has ruined his life and having to save the life of the man who is balls deep in his estranged wife when he's not galavanting through his woods.
This was directed by Richard Bansbach (who did the editing on the American opening of Terror of Mechagodzilla) and Robert E. Pearson with a script by Chuck D. Keen (who was also the cinematographer and he made a lot of outdoor bear-related movies such as Challenge to Be Free, The Timber Tramps and Joniko and the Kush Ta Ka) and Brian Russell (The Annihilators, Beyond Death's Door).
Honestly, it makes Grizzly look big budget, but I'm all for animal attack movies. It doesn't matter how much it costs, I'm here for the body count.
