Prophecy
She lives. Don't move. Don't breathe. There's nowhere to run. She will find you.
When a dispute occurs between a logging operation and a nearby Native American tribe, Dr. Robert Verne and his wife, Maggie, are sent in to mediate. Chief John Hawks insists the loggers are poisoning the water supply, and, though company man Isley denies it, the Vernes can't ignore the strangely mutated wildlife roaming the woods. Robert captures a bear cub for testing and soon finds himself the target of an angry mutant grizzly.

Reviews
Filmed in 1978 and shot in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada this horror film is a product of its times. Low budget and gory though director John Frankenheimer did delete some violent content. This is one of those weird "Eco horror". Nature strikes back essentially. Toxic chemicals create a mutated bear type creature. The bear creature is defending her cub and does not take kindly to anyone who
