Ginger Snaps
Directed by John Fawcett
Two death-obsessed sisters, outcasts in their suburban neighborhood, must deal with the tragic consequences when one of them is bitten by a deadly werewolf. Morbid and singular in their small town, Brigitte and Ginger vow to live and die together, but when Ginger is attacked by a werewolf, she grows detached from her sister and embraces a vicious new lifestyle. Written by Karen Walton and directed by ORPHAN BLACK creator John Fawcett, GINGER SNAPS packs dark, affecting themes of family, feminism and oncoming womanhood into a grisly creature feature. A favorite upon release, GINGER SNAPS only grows more ferocious with age, as it takes its rightful place as one of our great werewolf stories. Contains strong language, violence and gore.

well drawn out characters and a fresh take on the werewolf subgenre makes this horror flix a classic in its own right.
Love the gender study even if its a bit less than subtle sometimes! Great cast, nearly pitch-perfect tone, and well shot. Ending is a little weaker than the rest of the film, but still can't wait to check out the rest of the Ginger Snaps!
Pretty good I’m just kinda annoyed by the ending bc this bitch kept dropping the cure
Classic
Great movie - a new approach to this genre with original ideas and great acting.
