Pros: Perkins, The screen play, the cinematography, music and directing Cons: A bit...no, a LOT ! bloody and gory!
It is rare that you get to see an old subject approached in a new way, and it would appear that only independent film makers dare to explore the wild side. Case and point is Ginger Snaps, a horror flick about werewolves. It has a pretty good...
Pros: An Excellent, Quirky Werewolf Film from John Fawcett. Cons: The Gore Might Not Be for Everyone.
Since the release of the 1999 independent horror film The Blair Witch Project, a new genre of dark, horror films were starting to emerge. While The Blair Witch Project became a huge hit that unfortunately lost its audience after ...

Pros: Doesn't suck the way a lot of horror movies do Cons: Hmm...lacks those dramatic special effects we've all come to know and love
I would not normally have been interested in this movie, since I don't find horror movies that appealing for the most part, but I read a good review of it that made it sound intriguing and so, yesterday being Halloween (and we went out to buy candy for...
Pros: Wonderfully created film with real guts. Cons: Sadly formulaic final reel.
Hollywood must surely have an inferiority complex at the moment. And if it doesn’t, it fricking well should do. 2001, it’s safe to say, has hardly been a vintage year for fans of LA film making. 12 months of palatable dross (Save The Last Dance,...
Pros: Great acting and storyline Cons: Difficult to find in the USA at present

Pros: A werewolf movie for thinking people. Cons: Ending falls into the mainstream trap.
Ginger Snaps is coming to home video and DVD on October 23. You may be tempted to leave it on the shelf, simply because you've never heard of it, and the blurb on the box seems to scream "B Movie!". Do not, I repeat, do NOT leave a copy of...

Like the best of Canadian cinema, Ginger Snaps is either earnestly subversive or subversively earnest and it's difficult at times to figure out which way its going at any given time. A classic horror film with the subtext laid bare, Ginger Snaps is like...
Ginger Snaps is so eager to let you know that it's a metaphor, like a kid with a secret, that the text upon its subtext becomes transparent--and when you can see through a film, it's not as much fun. About a month ago I watched John Landis' An...
