It chronicles a period of upheaval in the lives of these unlikely friends as their addiction leads them to escalating criminal activity, kicking off a chain reaction of bloodshed and tragedy. EL PICO shines an unforgiving light into the dark corners of the drug underworld and explores the complexities of family lives that straddle the line between both sides of the law.

Revealer

El Pico 2 (June 1)
El Pico 2 continues the criminal saga of Paco, a troubled heroin addict who escaped sordid entanglements of murder and overdose, thanks to the actions of his law enforcement officer father.

But salvation proves as elusive as ever, and he soon finds himself drawn back into his old life.

Ambition drives him to take up a sawed-off shotgun and lead his gang on a crime spree that will paint a bloody swathe across the city and drive Jaro closer and closer to violent tragedy. Unflinching and often brutal, the film also treats its subject with genuine humanity.

Grizzly
An enormous grizzly bear embarks on a murderous rampage in a national park, killing campers, hunters, and anyone else who gets in its way. But when rangers push to close the park, craven officials decide to keep it open. Sound familiar? A year after JAWS broke records, director William Girdler set out to cash in with a knockoff – and guess what? It worked.

Grizzly became the top independent hit of 1976, grossing nearly $30 million dollars and inspiring many more animal attack thrillers – including Girdler’s semi-sequel Day of the Animals the following year.

Day of the Animals
A group of animal lovers are hunted by killer critters during a camping trip in this over-the-top cult classic from B-movie maestro William Girdler. Leslie Nielsen, Lynda Day George, and Ruth Roman are among the campers whose hike turns into a death march when bears, birds, bugs, and more start attacking.

Though the campy attempts at staging the kills often induce more laughter than fear, especially in the scene in which Nielsen fights a bear rug, DOTA still offers jolting thrills for all fans of the animal attack genre.
