Ginger Snaps: Unleashed (2004)

The second Ginger Snaps film focuses primarily on younger sister Brigitte.
There’s a not very subtle role reversal, but it doesn't just rehash the first story from a different point of view, it takes the character some place new.
Like its predecessor it avoids most of the irritating clichés. There are a few moments where it drifts into screaming teenager horror movie territory, but they're brief and therefore forgiveable.
It’s a darkly humorous tale fraught with urgency and… erm… bite.
