Show Notes

We're joined by writer and co-host of The Faculty of Horror podcast, Alexandra West, to dive deep into one of the best teen horror films ever made, Canadian werewolf movie Ginger Snaps (2000).

We touch on how the film captures suburban boredom, teenage angst, the taboo around periods and female sexuality.

Read Anna's piece on the making and legacy of Ginger Snaps over on Little White Lies.
