Reception[]

Critical reception has been largely negative.[1][2] Dread Central rated the movie at 2 1/2 out of 5 blades, calling it "a fairly straightforward cliché-a-thon that wraps itself up in highly convenient third act character revelation that sure comes in handy when trying to send an eco-terrorist wolf monster back to its spiritual nature preserve. It’s also pretty watchable. I wouldn’t go so far as to call it pretty good, but it is certainly watchable in a nothing-better-on Saturday afternoon matinee sort of way."[3] TV Spielfilm was ambivalent in their rating.[4]

Curt Wagner for the Chicago Tribune panned Monsterwolf, criticizing it as "so bad it sucks - and it's not even about vampires!"[5]
