''Into the Grizzly Maze'' (originally titled ''Red Machine'', then changed to ''Endangered'' and later to ''Grizzly''), is a 2015 American action horror-thriller film directed by David Hackl from a screenplay by Guy Moshe and Jack Reher. It stars Creator/JamesMarsden, Creator/ThomasJane, Creator/PiperPerabo, Creator/ScottGlenn, and Creator/BillyBobThornton.

After serving time in jail, Rowan returns to his home town in Alaska to find a fellow hunter who’s gone missing in the Grizzly Maze, a dangerous patch of forest normally off-limits to hunters. His brother, Deputy Sheriff Beckett, isn’t too happy to see him but the two must work together when they discover a gigantic grizzly bear has attacked and killed several people in the area. With the help of Beckett’s wife, wildlife conservationist Michelle, and Beckett’s colleague Kaley, Rowan and Beckett must find the bear before it harms anyone else and before veteran hunter Douglass gets his hands on it.
