Ginger Snaps
Originally released: 2000
Read the full review
Ignore the director's masculinity, this film screams Girl Power like The Virgin Suicides wedding The Craft. Let's just say: Buffy the Vampire. Ginger (Isabelle) and Brigitte (Perkins) will slay you. Teenage sisters with a passion for the dark side and anywhere but the suburb of Bailey Downs, they goth-happily practice suicide, ignore boys and cheerleaders until Ginger gets bitten on the night of her first period by... Well, the local drug dealer (Lemche) thinks lycanthrope, and hey, Ginger has fangs. And a tail. And a taste for boys. Gunge, grunge and biting wit will cure all your cravings.
