Ginger Snaps (2000)

Dan Fleming of the Potato League Podcast joins Nathan and Eric for week 2 of FURbruary, our month-long tribute to werewolf movies! On this episode, we’re tearing into a decidedly different take on the typical werewolf formula. This subgenre tends to be heavy on the Y chromosomes but this week’s film, GINGER SNAPS, cleverly uses werewolf tropes for an insightful female coming-of-age story about the everyday horrors of being a young woman dealing with the terrifying, confusing physical and psychological changes of puberty, and all of the absurd social stigmas that come along with it. So, grab your wolfsbane, bring the dogs inside, and meet us at the greenhouse because it’s time to take a bite out of GINGER SNAPS (2000).
