Thunder road was better - The Wolf of Snow Hollow review by TH

Thunder road was quite a hidden gem but sadly this film had potential but never really knew whether it was going for b movie/comedy horror style. Jim Cummings has a very strange style of acting that almost feels like a bit of will ferrell/jim Carey but played really serious.

Overall it's alright to watch once.

Little gem - The Wolf of Snow Hollow review by Alphaville

With Thunder Road and now this, Jim Cummings is carving out quite a name for himself as a writer/director/star. And unlike many a writer/director/star, he does not indulge in vanity projects. This is a proper film that re-invigorates the tired old werewolf formula. Sure, people are torn apart at full moon, but this is more of a murder mystery set amidst the Rocky Mountains of Utah. It also has a nice line in sardonic humour as Jim (a local police officer) is beset by a whole world of problems both personal and professional. He flatly refuses to accept the existence of a mythical werewolf, unlike his deputy, but then “he thought Men in Black was a documentary”.

At a taut 81mins there’s not a frame wasted, right up to the satisfying resolution of the mystery. And if, amidst the action and the humour, you can’t quite put your finger on the supporting subtext that tackles nothing less than the human condition, watch the short DVD Xtra. It will add to your admiration of what is a small but unexpected gem.

Risible - The Wolf of Snow Hollow review by JB

Woeful. The worst film I've rented from Cinema Paradise in three years and three hundred titles. The only way to approach this is through your 'So bad it's good' goggles. Fine for cheap laughs on a very wet afternoon.
