What a weird weekend… we’re getting two horror movies based on bears this week.
The first is Cocaine Bear, loosely based on true events.
In 1985, a plane carrying bags of cocaine went down in the woods and an American black bear ingested the drugs. That’s basically the setup for this film. Based on the trailer, it looks like the bear goes on a rampage and murders everyone it sees, while high on cocaine.
This looks more like an unintentional comedy. It could be the next Snakes on a Plane film.
Apparently, this is Ray Liotta’s final performance, before his death in 2022.
Cocaine Bear is scheduled to be released in the United States on February 24, 2023, by Universal Pictures.
Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey (2023)

Thanks to Winnie the Pooh going into the public domain, low-budget filmmaker Rhys Frake-Waterfield jumped on the opportunity to transformed Winnie into a murdering bear in Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey. The 2023 British independent slasher film follows Pooh and Piglet on a bloodthirsty murderous rampage on a grown up Christopher Robin. It’s definitely not a Disney movie.
Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey will get a United States release on February 15, 2023, and will be in theaters in the UK on March 10, 2023.

Voted best band at the Shropshire Music Awards in 2022, Black Bear Kiss announced their debut self-titled album to be out March 3, 2023.
The upbeat four-piece band from the Midlands formed in 2016, inspired by bands like Foals and Royal Blood.
Their self-titled debut record was years in the making, complicated by the death of their guitarist Rob Jones.
“We are so pleased to share this with everyone”, says singer Chris Leech, “many years of blood, sweat and tears have gone into making this record. We’ve been through so much as a band and to come through everything with this album, shows what we are about.”
The Black Bear Kiss album launch party is set Mar 03, 2023 at The Station, Cannock town centre on the bus station. They are playing tonight (Friday, 17th February) at The Salopian, Shrewsbury in Shrewsbury. Opening support will come from Aaron W Evans, Sig and the Firepilots and “some very special guests!”

Appalachian country and roots rock band The Bear and The Bison’ self-titled debut album came out February 13, 2023.
The band is led by singer-songwriter Mark W. Lennon (Home of the Wheel and Down the Mountain), who said, “I wanted to record some of the songs we had written back in California, so they didn’t get lost. Straightforward snapshot country tunes like ‘Train, Train’ and ‘Misery’… There wasn’t really an agenda, just recording at our own pace, when we could.”
The album features Dean Vivirito (Who Can Sleep) on vocals, Harmony Griffin (Uncle Ben’s Remedy, Leroy Townes) on guitars, Patrick Jackson (Folkfaces) on standup bass, Jim Whitford on lap and pedal steel, Jacob Brockway on pedal steel, Charlie Coughlin (The Brothers Blue) on fiddle, Michael Russeck on piano and Mark Lennon on vocals, guitars, banjo, bass, and percussion.
The Bear & The Bison will be available across all digital platforms February 13, 2023.

“Sore Bear” is about, “a moment of calm where the protagonist has finally overcome their battles, but accepts there will be more to come. It is about being comfortable with confrontation but also having the autonomy to choose when / if to confront. It’s about protecting yourself with love and accepting that with love there will be loss.”
You can listen to “Sore Bear” on YouTube.
If you are heading out to SXSW 2023, mui zyu will be performing at the event.
