Scream Factory takes a bite out of GINGER SNAPS (review)

GINGER SNAPS, the 2000 Canadian horror sleeper classic hits Blu-ray/DVD combo from Scream Factory with a host of extra features and high definition video and audio.  The close relationship of outcast Goth sisters Ginger and Bridget is disturbed one night when Ginger is attacked by a werewolf. As Bridget scrambles to find a cure, Ginger's lycanthropy combined with her monthly cycle make for a fiercely sexy and deadly new popular girl in school who is a literal maneater.
