"Backrooms" Succeeds
We got a movie that takes the old school approach of trying to creep you out with chilling atmosphere more than anything else.
Toklat (1971)
A poor old mountain man returns to the wild Oregon countryside to find a grizzly bear he named Toklat. He recalls his old days with the bear, from rescuing him as a cub to teaching him how to hunt. He finally finds Toklat and faces the true reason he is after him: the bear is wanted for killing a rancher's livestock, and the mountain man badly needs the bounty money.
