May
Why this pick
Its lonely, off-kilter heroine and gradual slide from awkward intimacy into body horror echo Ginger Snaps' blend of female alienation, morbidity, and pitch-black humor.

Excision
Why this pick
A stylized and fiercely uncomfortable teen horror that shares Ginger Snaps' fascination with female rage, macabre imagination, hostile suburbia, and taboo bodily realities.

When Animals Dream
Why this pick
This restrained Danish werewolf drama similarly treats transformation as a frightening adolescent inheritance, emphasizing a young woman's isolation and a cold small-town mood.

The Craft
Why this pick

01 / THE STORY
A little about the film.
In Bailey Downs, a rash of dog killings has been occurring. Brigitte and Ginger Fitzgerald are teenage sisters who harbour a fascination with death and, as children, formed a pact to die together. One night, while on the way to kidnap a dog owned by school bully Trina Sinclair, Ginger begins her first period, which results in the girls being attacked by the creature responsible for the maulings. The creature wounds and bites Ginger, but Brigitte rescues her. As the girls flee, the creature is run over by a van belonging to Sam Miller, a local drug dealer. Ginger decides not to go the hospital as her wounds heal quickly.
