Reception
Zoe Rose Smith of 'Scream' magazine wrote "'Blood Moon's biggest flaw was that it lacked any real plot line that could have surprised me or possibly made me want to discuss it with someone". Writing for 'Screen International', Kim Newman called it "a rare serious entry in the 'steak and kidney western' sub-category and combines elements from classic American cowboy films with a Native American spin on the werewolf legend". Phil Wheat of 'Nerdly' called the film "a surprisingly great monster movie", while Jennie Kermode of 'Eye for Film', who reviewed its DVD release wrote that "[the film] falls short on ambition, but there's still plenty here to enjoy".
A rank of 65 out of a 100 was awarded to 'Blood Moon' by Culture Crypt.
According to Bob Brinkman of the Horror News Network "'Blood Moon' is truly a great film".
