Brigitte (Emily Perkins) and Ginger (Katharine Isabelle) are unusual sisters. For a school project they take pictures of each other in various suicide poses that look frighteningly realistic. No other students will talk to them. Ginger is almost sixteen, Brigitte a year younger, but they are in the same classes, and neither of them has gotten her period yet. They do virtually everything together--in fact, their motto is "Together Forever"--until one night Ginger gets attacked by the Beast of Bailey Downs, which previously had been killing and eviscerating dogs. And Ginger then begins to change.... <br> <br> John Fawcett's debut feature film is everything a good horror film should be--creepy, weird, oddly funny, sexy, and very bloody, with its conclusion taking place on Halloween night. Michael Shields's moody score lofts above every scene like dark shadows about to envelop the characters. Perkins and Isabelle are outstanding as the two morbid Fitzgerald sisters with a taste for death. This independent C... Minimize

There's something about hairy...

Author's Rating: Rating: 5/5 stars

Pros: Wonderfully created film with real guts.

Cons: Sadly formulaic final reel.

Bottom Line:
It's Canadian, it's a werewolf film and it's full of teen angst. That this seemingly awry premise can be nothing short of amazing is a recommendation of the highest order. Read More at Epinions.com

Ginger Snaps (and bites, snarls, and rips you to shreds)

Author's Rating: Rating: 5/5 stars

Pros: A werewolf movie for thinking people.

Cons: Ending falls into the mainstream trap.

Bottom Line:
Rife with symbolism about adolescence and puberty, Ginger Snaps is one of the few truly great horror films of this era. Read More at Epinions.com

John Fawcett's Ginger Snaps

Author's Rating: Rating: 4/5 stars

Pros: Great characters and solid FX work and gore.

Cons: A weak and overlong ending.

Bottom Line:
Ginger Snaps isn't the greatest werewolf film ever, but it's an interesting updating of one horror's most venerable archetypes. Read More at Epinions.com

Very snappy and Gingery

Author's Rating: Rating: 4/5 stars

Pros: Doesn't suck the way a lot of horror movies do

Cons: Hmm...lacks those dramatic special effects we've all come to know and love

Bottom Line:
Intriguingly low-key werewolf tale, with good acting. Not a gore and/or special effects spectacular, but an interesting story. Worth seeing. Read More at Epinions.com

"Ginger Snaps" Also Sometimes Crackles and Pops

Author's Rating: Rating: 4/5 stars

Pros: Performances by Perkins, Isabelle, and Rogers. Fine make-up work. Sharp script. Nice tone.

Cons: Creature effects are sometimes weak. Will be too gory for some (or many).

Bottom Line:
It's bloody, funny, scary, and genuine. The effects may be sub-Rick Baker, but this is a werewolf film with heart. Read More at Epinions.com
