It's interesting that when you think of all the horrors that can beset people in movies, bears don't make many appearances as the beast. Heck, there are more shark movies than bear movies. Perhaps it's because bears, even as they are eating us, remain cute, whereas sharks are always frightening, no matter how you see them. The odds of us meeting a bear on a nature walk are greater than the odds of running into a shark, so what is it?
