I am a lover of all thing’s werewolf. In 2000 a new breed of werewolf film came out of nowhere in the form of Ginger Snaps starring Katharine Isabelle, Emily Perkins, Kris Lemche and Mimi Rogers from director John Fawcett. The film spawned a trilogy with the sequel Ginger Snaps II: Unleashed and the prequel Ginger Snaps Back: The Beginning both in 2004. Now the one that started it all is making its way onto 4K for the first time.

 

Ginger Snaps follows death-fixated teenage sisters Ginger and Brigitte, who are attacked one night by a creature drawn to Ginger’s first menstrual period. Bitten by the creature, Ginger soon exhibits sudden aggression and bizarre transformations that convince Brigitte her sister is turning into a werewolf…and that Ginger’s embrace of her liberating new condition may be terminal. 

 

In addition to the film in high-def this release offers up legacy bonus content including commentary, trailer, TV spots, deleted scenes, featurettes and so much more. Grab your copy of Ginger Snaps when it transforms onto 4K for the first time on May 19th from Vestron and Lionsgate.
