Ginger Snaps (2000) - Retrospective

Argh, growing pains, acne, mood-swings, lycanthropy, all part of the adolescent experience, well, according to Ginger at least.

This heavily underrated coming-of-age horror film was first exposed on cable TV and DVD and then became a favorite of the werewolf subgenre.

Let's dive into the story behind the making of this terrific little horror gem, which places its subtext front and center yet maintains a sense of humor and offers some pretty effective scares as well.

Starring Emily Perkins, Katherine Isabelle, Mimi Rogers,
Kris Lemche, Jesse Moss, Danielle Hampton, John Bourgeois.

Directed by John Fawcett
