The Werewolf of Winter Arrives a Little Early

That werewolf movie we’ve heard about from Jim Cummings, we can assume it’s this one, THE WOLF OF SNOW HOLLOW. And it will be arriving shortly, on October 9th from Orion Classics. It’s going to be released to theaters and to VOD on the same day. I damn sure hope it comes to some theater close to me. It’s so frustrating; I see theaters suffering right now because Hollywood isn’t releasing any new films, yet there are tons of new movies that theaters could be showing, independent films that would otherwise, under other circumstances, be going directly to video. Why aren’t theaters grabbing those up? Is there some legal reason preventing it? And if so, what possible reason could make sense, either for the theaters or the movie studios? If THE WOLF OF SNOW HOLLOW plays at a standard theater or a drive-in within driving distance for me, you can be damn sure I’ll be there to purchase a ticket.

THE WOLF OF SNOW HOLLOW is the story of “a small-town sheriff who is struggling with a failed marriage, a rebellious daughter, and a lackluster department, [and] who is tasked with solving a series of brutal murders that are occurring on [nights of] the full moon. As he’s consumed by the hunt for the killer, he struggles to remind himself: there’s no such thing as werewolves.” Watch the trailer here.
