Reception
Critical reception has been largely negative. Dread Central rated the movie at 2 1/2 out of 5 blades, calling it "a fairly straightforward clich-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. Its also pretty watchable. I wouldnt 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." TV Spielfilm was ambivalent in their rating.
Curt Wagner for the 'Chicago Tribune' panned 'Monsterwolf', criticizing it as "so bad it sucks - and it's not even about vampires!"
