“Viking Wolf” (** out of four) was a passable horror thriller from Sweden about a teenager (Elli Rhiannon Muller Osborne) who relocates to a small village with her mother (Liv Mjones) whose a cop; when she is a key witness to a murder at a party she attends, she begins to suspect that the killer is a ravenous werewolf who will stop at nothing before it kills everybody and keeps it’s identity a secret. Director Stig Svendsen shows some promise and an alluring mood and style but it’s hampered by a routine and predictable story. Originally titled “Thriller” in reference to the famous Michael Jackson werewolf video but was wisely changed.
