Getting the flick on Blu-Ray as a gift on Halloween, I was disappointed to find that the disc did not work. Curious about viewing it,I was happy to stumble on the movie as part of a triple DVD Sy-Fy Channel film set this year,which led to me at last facing the Monsterwolf.
View on the film:
Put together on a low TV movie budget, director Todor Chapkanov & cinematographer Lorenzo Senatore wisely keep the monster from being fully seen in daylight, instead going for brief glimpses at the howling terror of the wolf. Whilst a bit on the heavy-handed side, the screenplay by Charles Bolon displays some ambition in linking the horror of the Deep South town going on a monster hunt, with the ecological horror of Native American land being destroyed by big business. Snarling almost as much as the monster, Robert Picardo gives an enjoyable boo-hiss performance as the baddie who takes on the Monsterwolf.
