![]() ![]() This is critical, because despite having a solid cast to fall back on with Robert Forster and Riki Lindholm filling out spots behind him, Cummings is the only one with anything really meaty to chew on. Elements of horror, comedy, drama, and mystery all play out in the films 83-minute runtime and Jim Cummings proves more then capable to pull off his multi-hyphenate role. I liked the movie, and was engrossed the whole time but at the same time it’s hard to know who to recommend it to. The Wolf of Snow Hollow was not at all what I expected but was one of the rare cases when the result was some extreme. When a movie is not what you expect it can usually go one of two ways, total elation or a feeling of anger and betrayal. As the bodies start to pile up with no answer in site John Marshall starts to find out his worst enemy isn’t a werewolf, but his own sanity. All signs point to werewolf, which the small town is happy to believe adding yet another layer of stress to the already piled upon sheriff. All of this was stacked against him when his world is turned even further upside down by the discovery of a horribly mutilated body the day after a full moon. He’s also running the single father gig with a teenage daughter and is an active AA participant. Not wanting his health issues to get out John is forced to run the department and care for his Dad, which is enough to drive most people to drink…but we haven’t even gotten to the good stuff yet. Not only is he caring for his gravely ill Father, the amazing Robert Forster in his final role, but his dad also happens to be his boss, the Sheriff of Snow Hollow. With his Dad’s health failing Marshall gets a one-two punch. John Marshall (Cummings) is having a tough time with life. It’s October, and you know what that means? It’s time for genre pictures galore! The Wolf of Snow Hollow, written, starring and directed by Jim Cummings, fits into the slot of good ole’ fashioned werewolf movie…or so it seems. ![]()
