Reception
On Rotten Tomatoes the film has an approval rating of 65% based on reviews from 17 critics.
Noel Murray of the Los Angeles Times called it "a one-stop shop for just that kind of good-natured vulgarity" and "even grosser and wackier than its predecessor." Murray warns that the film isn't for everyone but that if you are interested in the premise of a WolfCop "you probably won't be disappointed". Trace Thurman of 'BloodyDisgusting.com' wrote, "Another WolfCop isn't high art. It's just a fun, gory and hilarious midnight movie that will scratch your itch for camp. If you enjoyed the first WolfCop, you'll most certainly love the sequel!". The film premiered a "Ruff Cut" at Fantastic Fest (Austin, Texas) in 2016 to positive reviews. The Canadian premiere was at the Fantasia International Film Festival (Montreal, Quebec) where it won the Audience Choice Award (Gold) for best Canadian / Quebec feature film.
John Semley of the Globe and Mail gave it 1.5 out of 4 and wrote: "It may well be brain dead, dumb and intermittently a bit fun. But sometimes we need a bit more."
Simon Abrams of RogerEbert.com gave it 1.5 out of 4 and wrote: "The kind of bad movie that sounds amazing on paper, but is excruciating to watch, even at a brisk 82 minutes."
Home media
The film earned an estimated $122,713 in DVD and Blu-ray sales.
Sequel
