When more victims are found, and tensions flare, the pursuit for justice becomes more frantic and John Marshall will stop at nothing to bring these crimes to an end. Quickly, though, it is revealed that the suspect may not be entirely human. Unfortunately, as questions go unanswered and the department cannot solve the case, the public’s trust in Marshall diminishes.Īs a recovering alcoholic, and as he tries to navigate a strained relationship with his daughter Jenna (Chloe East), the added stress of the whole situation begins to take a toll on John.

Officer John Marshall (Jim Cummings) is a stressed-out, high-strung police officer trying to live up to his father’s reputation, the aging Sheriff Hadley (Robert Forster) who refuses to retire despite his health problems.

High-quality monster films are far and few between these days and it’s always a delight when a good one pops up. The Wolf of Snow Hollow is now playing in theaters and drive-ins where possible, and is also available for purchase on-demand.
