Story: Wyvern starts when a small Alaskan town suffers unusual attacks. Chief Dawson (Shaw) must bring the town together to focus on the predator. Local hunter Hass (Corbin) is the only one who sees the creature and panic starts taking over.
Drifter Jake (Chinlund) has been recovering in the town and works with the residents to defend themselves. However, the town is preparing for a festival and not wanting to cancel the show as it is the only thing that keeps the town sane. Now, they face a race against time to save the residents and defeat the monster.
Verdict on Wyvern
Wyvern is an action horror following a small town that comes under attack from a mysterious creature. The survivors must work together to defeat the creature before it spreads around the country and kills the residents. However, the battle is harder than they could ever imagine as the creature has powers, unlike anything they have fought before.
This movie is a fun creature feature, which plays into local legends of a creature. It comes to life causing mass destruction and leads to the survivors needing to fight back. While it focuses on a dragon attacking people, it puts the humans in a position where they are outnumbered and outgunned. They have to find a solution from outside the box to solve the problem they face. It does rely on the low-budget aspect, which holds back the pure horror can could unfold.
