Ginger Snaps - kickass horror movie

Mad_Dog · 11th Jan 2002, 01:12 AM

it's damn smart and funny... the premise is a girl is bitten by a werewolf the day she gets her first period. crazy shit ensues... you should all watch it. heres the website.

Beagle_One · 11th Jan 2002, 01:35 AM

From your description of the movie, I don't know how it could be a horror movie.

I'll go check the site anyways.

Mad_Dog · 11th Jan 2002, 02:02 AM

it has some of the best blood and gore ever... no doubt it's a horror movie.

Jamail · 11th Jan 2002, 07:48 AM

It's a freakin hoot. Definitely worth the rental.

peachz · 11th Jan 2002, 07:54 AM

Teh Hairy Menstral Period from hell! Aiieee!

Ballistophobia · 11th Jan 2002, 11:45 AM

Rented the DVD like a month ago. Thought it suxed beyond belief.

Speaking of horror movies, everyone must go rent Jeepers Creepers. I dunno why this movie was never talked about or anything, but it is fucking incredible. First "scary" movie that has givin me that "eerie feeling" in like 10 or 15 years. Only certain things can give me that feeling so I highly suggest picking it up. IMHO, Jeepers Creepers could become a cult classic. It's just so well done, extremely well developed yet a simple backdrop (brother and sister traveling home on a seemingly desolate country road), great acting (extremely surprising, they're both done by relative newcomers to acting, Gina Philips and Justin Long) a brother/sister relationship complete with accurate sibling play fighting without being meretricious, fear/adrenaline-inducing situations, incredible directing and writing (both done by the guy who directed Powder), sweet artwork/makeup designs, etc.

Once again, stay away from Ginger Snaps, I literally feel asleep half way through...

EDIT: 'Dog, it was just boring, what can I say? Go rent Jeepers Creepers and tell me which movie you thought was more boring.

Mad_Dog · 11th Jan 2002, 11:53 AM

nobody listen to balli!!

rent it and see for yourself.

Donnellizer · 11th Jan 2002, 05:46 PM

I never watched Jeepers Creepers balli. The trailer looked kinna gei if you ask me, so that made me keep away from it... I might check it out.

JonnyBoyDT · 11th Jan 2002, 10:45 PM

no, listen to balli on this one...hes quite right...and take it from me I know my movie **** after working at blockbuster for so long.

jeepers was 100X better than ginger snaps...I could barely get through that movie..jeepers was pretty good.

but if you wanna rent a good gruesome flick rent the way of the gun...it has benicio del torro init...what else do you need to know?

best shoot out scenes ive ever witnessed...except for maybe heat...the bank had a great scene too

Ballistophobia · 12th Jan 2002, 01:02 AM

I thought the trailer is what made it look good, personally.

Way of the Gun is fuckin sweet, but it's not horror, bro.

I think Ima go watch Jeepers Creepers one last time before I have to start paying fines.

mer·e·tri·cious (mr-trshs)
adj.

Attracting attention in a vulgar manner: meretricious ornamentation. See Synonyms at gaudy1.
Plausible but false or insincere; specious: a meretricious argument.

There's the definition for anyone elese who had no clue that was even a goddamned word.

i'll rent it soon. i'm not a big horror fan though, maybe that's why i liked ginger snaps so much.

Donnellizer · 12th Jan 2002, 12:06 PM

I'll probably rent Jeepers after I watch Dogma, I just rented it, never seen it before...

I loved Clerks though. And since it said that hell was NJ on the back cover, it must be good!

Catalyst · 12th Jan 2002, 12:16 PM

Odd, I just rented Dogma too. It was pretty good, surprisingly good performances out of Affleck and Damon.

I thought Way of the Gun was a fucking SNORE. God that movie was awful once you get past the "wow, guns" thing.

Chronic · 12th Jan 2002, 03:17 PM

Dogma was hilarious. If you liked clerks and like dogma, try mallrats.

Kevin smith may not be the best director, but he knows comedy.

SGT.Peelover · 12th Jan 2002, 11:07 PM

Thank you N_R_A_1.

Ballistophobia · 13th Jan 2002, 05:11 AM

Oops. You know Balli and teh lexicon. BTW, I was referring to something along the lines of "Plausible but false or insincere".

U-N Guy · 13th Jan 2002, 08:49 AM

Ginger snaps taste like ****.

(cookies for you less-intelligent types

)

Yeah, I've seen mallrats before. Chasing Amy sucked ass though.

boone · 31st Oct 2011, 04:54 PM

I think I'll get Ginger Snaps, having just seen the sequel on TV. It (the sequel) was definitely one of the more intelligent horror movies I've seen in recent times. This bloke seems to agree:
