Critics Consensus

The Wolf of Snow Hollow treads somewhat unsteadily between horror and comedy, but writer-director-star Jim Cummings' unique sensibilities make for an oddly haunting hybrid.

David Fear

Rolling Stone

It's the personal demons rather than old-fashioned monsters that get you - one of [the] central tenets of Cummings' genre exercise/portrait of a screw-up mash-up.

Rated: 3/5

"The Wolf of Snow Hollow" is a pleasingly quirky outing that has fun with the mythologies of both monsters and men.

Austin Chronicle

Cummings is so whip-smart in sustaining his manic energy with a layer of genuine pathos, that the effect transcends one-note cliche.

The Wolf of Snow Hollow is another fantastic film from Jim Cummings. Its quirky sense of humor, surprisingly deep family dynamics, mixed with the murder mystery story make for an entertaining and unpredictable horror-comedy.

Rated: A+

Patheos

Snow Hollow is willing to name things like “toxic masculinity” and “anger issues” explicitly, but deft and subtle enough to show these abstractions emerging from and intersecting with the werewolf plot naturally.

Beautifully shot and acted, quirky 'real life' style script with Jim Cummings playing the lead as a hugely flawed angry cop not mentally equipped to deal with, well anything really. Part horror part funny, maybe in a nod to American Werewolf in London, sometimes that mashes up so much you lose the thread, especially with the doom-laden soundtrack but thats a positive as is the films length which in this era is almost a short

Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars

This movie has crude humor. Sight gags and bad acting (On purpose) Its hilarious. It may be a little much for some folks so just watch 15 minutes to make sure you like it. Its really funny.

With this movie you can see what happens when you give a great filmmaker even just a little bit of money (I say "a little bit of money" relatively speaking to other movies). The movie looks amazing, it's without a doubt one of the best casts Cummings has had in one of his projects. My only single gripe is, I wish the ending explained a little more than it did, but that's it. Excellent movie, absolutely worth multiple viewings. A true gem of a film.

A new, smart, & fun take on the werewolf genre. It's got a Twin Peaks vibe to it.

It's trying to be funny, and sometimes is, and it's trying to be scary, and sometimes is, but the ending did not satisfy, except of course, for seeing the new sheriff in town. I found it awkward to watch our protagonist act like a 13-year-old, which was the point, but didn't make me happy as a viewer. I'm tip-toing around the solution to the mystery of the monster that's killing townsfolk, because I don't want to spoil it. All I will say here is the monster we see briefly at different parts of the movie is, as it turns out, impossible. I didn't believe it. I'm offended that that's the denoument.

This movie is very carefully put together. Repeat views will reward with cool little details that show a consistent story being meticulously crafted.
