A near-perfect subversion of genre tropes with enough symbolism and subtext to inspire decades' worth of analytical writing and literature. A textbook example of the capability of genre film to, when placed in the right hands, transcend the inbuilt limitations of its form and ascend to a higher level. Suburban gothic. David Cronenberg coming of age. A decade-defining cult classic. Let's discuss.
Ginger Snaps
Only thing snapped is your brain
I'm actually going to watch this tonight because of you cucks constant threads
What are some other suburban gothic kinos (aside from Suburban Gothic)?
You'll like it
i always feel so sad for Ginger when i rewatch
What is this aesthetic called?
It's a great film. Enjoy.
I call it kino
How would you call this aesthetic?
Yeah everyone always obsesses over what B went through (and rightfully so) but Ginger had to deal with turning into a werewolf too, and she fucking died
>basic pleasure model
Is it safe to assume the sisters were Blade Runner fans?
thrift store goth
I always imagined them being far more into books and movies than into music.
Yes
FUCK Trina she deserved what she got
She was a huge bitch but I also think she was sincere in warning Brigitte of Sam's tendencies. Of course it turned out that Sam genuinely didn't think of Brigitte that way, but still.

I've just been thinking of various methods they could use to continue the story and I think the most likely would be just continuing to follow Ghost. What kind of person would an adult Ghost even be like? I oddly can't imagine how she would have continued to develop. Thoughts?
>various methods

I'm about as interested in more of Ghost's story as i am the Indian guy from 3. Which is not at all
Is 2 worth watching I've just finished 1
I bought this movie on vhs at a flea market because of these spam threads and ended up liking it a lot. Definitely kino
Yeah a good amount of people on here like it more than 1. Though they're two different types of horror. What did you think of 1?
Yeah it's definitely doomer kino I can see why it's a cult classic here the only thing that took me out of it was the tail stuff I burst out laughing they should have kept that nearer the end after the Trina showdown imo but pretty good movie none the less
Perfection
I don't know, I've been warming up to Ghost lately, especially after seeing the deleted scenes. really not a fair comparison with the Indian guy as everyone was kind of a one-note boredom in 3, Ging and B included.
defo. they are pretty different movies, but 2 has its own charms and Perkins carries it really well.
I WANT TO HOLD BRIGITTE IN MY ARMS AND SNIFF HER PRETTY HEAD
Based third worlder Ginger Snapper.
It's pretty good til the leave the hospital and then turns into a sort of home alone scenario with a goofy, unsatisfying ending.
> I also think she was sincere in warning Brigitte of Sam's tendencies
Trina was sincere in projecting cherry hound on to Sam in the sense she couldn't comprehend why he completely lost interest in her vapid teen self. But was Trina even a virgin? Didn't she date Jason previously? Couldn't seal the deal?
lol not a third worlder, just live in a flyover state. it's the only thing to do here

>tfw no strictly platonic friendship in high school
Wasted years...
>the tail stuff
lmao you're supposed to laugh this is a horror/comedy kino.
Thoughts on Jennifer's Body from Ginger Snaps fans?
looks like she has a poop coming out of her butt ahaha
Never saw it. Is it good?
never seen it, I remember it looking Trina-core (soulless)
BRIGITTE'S EYEBAGS ARE CUTE! CUTE!!!!!!!! I WANT A BRIGITTE GF WITH CUTE DARK EYE CIRCLES.
>Suburban gothic. David Cronenberg coming of age.
Absolutamente basado.
I'm just amazed your local flea market had some random VHS copy of Ginger Snaps in it, and you bought it because of these threads. That sounds like fate.
I like it. It's virtually the same movie, but with a demonic possession angle instead. Besties instead of sisters.
The premise is a literal who rock band comes into town, decides to make a deal with the devil to become famous. Need to sacrifice a virgin, but it turns out she's the town bike, so she comes back with a hunger for her male classmates.
Great song.
Sounds cool. I'll check it out this weekend.
First for watching NIN live in 2005 with Brigitte on my shoulders.
I wanna hold Brigitte's tiny little hands until our hands are a clammy mess and then I wanna keep holding them. Those tiny little hands. Holding them for an hour while sniffing her head.
Did an attempt at a kino grid
Based
now i know this is just a meme
thank god i didnt watched it
Not bad at all. Pretty good actually, but not enough shots of the werewolf/Ginger werewolf and the sisters interacting with other characters.
Very nice.
>i didnt watched it
ESL brainlet detected
Too dominated by portrait shots IMO. I'd edit it down to a 3x3 or 4x3 getting rid of almost all of the shots of characters.
Sweet, could use more Sam (and possibly Pamela) though
Might try doing another one with your help, anons. Maybe someone claims a grid spot and then tells me a timestamp/posts a pic or something and I add it in. Not this thread though, going to bed soon.
GINGER SNAP THREAD MOTHERFUCKERS
Convince me to re watch gs2 and torrent its bluray release
If this screencap isn't enough, I don't know what is.
based platonic poster
Perkins really seemed to grow into herself between the two films. She looks incredible in GS2.
What about all the scenes after the librarian dies, the start was the best part
ID LIKE TO GROW INTO HER IF YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN
