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.

What a great movie. Understanding a budget is what is lost in typical Hollywood. A great story line and special effects. Congrats to all involved for this one. (Though I do miss 80’s horror. )

damn gingers fine
A great coming of age movie which shows two very close sisters that each become their own person with one wanting to empower her sister and the other who becomes preoccupied with trying to help her sister knowing that the power they have thrust upon them will only lead to their ruin.
I want every movie to feel like this
