Ginger Snaps

t's a very, very, very late Halloween entry (just in time for Thanksgiving. Scratch that. Christmas). Susan makes Greg watch 2000's "Ginger Snaps:" the story of two outcast sisters, Ginger (Katharine Isabelle) and Brigitte (Emily Perkins), one who is becoming a werewolf and the other who is trying to save her.  

 

The two discuss the film's themes of the horrors of adolescence and "becoming a woman." They also talk about the films that influenced "Ginger Snaps" and the films that Ginger Snaps influenced. 

 

They explore the elements that broke the suspension of disbelief in "I Have Questions" and ranked their favorite parts of the movie.
