Ginger Snaps Page #2

Synopsis: Is becoming a woman analogous, in some deep psychological way, to becoming a werewolf? Ginger is 16, edgy, tough, and, with her younger sister, into staging and photographing scenes of death. They've made a pact about dying together. In early October, on the night she has her first period, which is also the night of a full moon, a werewolf bites Ginger. Within a few days, some serious changes happen to her body and her temperament. Her sister Brigitte, 15, tries to find a cure with the help of Sam, a local doper. As Brigitte races against the clock, Halloween and another full moon approach, Ginger gets scarier, and it isn't just local dogs that begin to die.

Preying upon normal healthy cells...

the intruder gradually devours

the host from within...

Eventually the invader consumes

its host completely...

...and finally destroys it.

Complete meiosis involves

successive division sequences...

...which results in four new

cells, each of which is...

This one comes with a free calendar.

Are you sure it's just cramps?

Just so you know...

...the words 'just' and

'cramps' they don't go together.

Ok, you really groaning a lot here.

One day, you too will know my pain.

Hey, diss me or whatever

but, I got three sisters...

...and nothing quite takes

the edge off like a good toke.

Well, maybe I like my edge...Thanks.

Or maybe you're just chicken to lose it.

Pass the fag.

That's a girl.

-Yeah.

An eighth's fifty.

I don't want any drugs.

- Then amscray.

I was just wondering

what you hit.

Well, officer, looked like

a lycanthrope to me, sir.

- Sure you do.

Think you see werewolves a lot?

Why, do you?

Is it working?

No...and now I just don't care.

Sam, man, we just needed

a place to come and smoke.
