Ginger Snaps Back: The Beginning (DVD, 2004)

You can read my other reviews about Canada VS Hollywood on movies and why Canada has an edge over U.S. on the 'Thriller-Horror' marker (-: OK - Ginger Snaps back... I pasted the review it's as follows...

The sisters are back and this time they've travelled back in time, manifest in one of their previous incarnations. Orphans traveling across the Canadian wilderness by horseback during the 19th Century, the girls encounter a recked Indian campsite where one remaining inhabitant issues a strange prophetic warning, the first of many mysterious encounters to come. When the sisters take refuge at a trading fort populated only by men, they soon learn of the monstrous beasts in the outlying land that menace the men both physically and mentally, as many seem to be moving towards madness and all seem to have something to hide. Ginger is bitten by a little boy and starts slowly changing. The sisters realize they must work to solve the prophecy before its too late. This film, providing a backstory for characters introduced in the first two films of the series, offers stunning cinematography by Michael Marshall, known for his work with gifted Canadian director Guy Maddin, and superb performances by all the actors, including many respected indie stars. The series has been a cult favorite since the first GINGER SNAPS in 2000, and this film is more than just another werewolf horror flick; it has a little of everything: fantastic gore and great action with a challenging script that has real emotion, all depicted with a beautifully Gothic aesthetic.

My over all opinion. If you liked the first two... RUN OUT AND BUY!! I did. Also Emily Perkins is a 'hottie' in her own off beat way. So... I'd have patronized her and bought the dvd anyway! (-:
