Fifteen-year-old Brigitte Fitzgerald and her nearly-sixteen sister Ginger are a team-best friends and self-styled outcasts. Obsessed with dying and bound by a childhood pact to stay together forever, they loathe their mind-numbing existence in the suburb of Baileys Downs. One night the two girls are heading through the woods on the edge of the suburb to pull an evil prank on an obnoxious classmate when Ginger is savagely attacked by a wild creature. Ginger survives as her horrible wounds miraculously heal over, but something is not quite right, Ginger is irritable and in denial. But to Brigitte it is obviousthat a terrifying force has taken hold of her sister. She's convinced that the insatiable cravings her sister is experiencing can mean only one thing - Ginger is becoming something unspeakably evil and monstrous!
Recommended for ages 17+ for scenes of very, very violent horror.
It deserves a cult following among satire-loving, feminist-minded gore aficionados who appreciate a well-made human tail. - Lisa Schwarzbaum, Entertainment Weekly
"A slice of suburban gothic Ginger Snaps is a my-sister-is-turning-into-a-werewolf movie that doesn't wimp out at the end." -- Variety
