This one's all thanks to Sarah N.! Excellent pick, and just in time for spooky season!
Ginger and Brigette are two death-lovin' teenage sisters living in a boring but cursed Ontario suburb. While dogs are getting casually merc'd they make a pact–to get out by the time they're 16 or kill themselves.
But when Ginger hits puberty, she gets bit by a werewolf, becomes a werewolf, eats dogs, bangs sleezebags, and kills bullies until eventually Bridgette with the help of her drug-dealing maybe crush try to cure her. This movie is dripping with blood, guts, and allegory. If you want to howl with glee at some horrific bodily ch-ch-ch-changes, you might just sink your teeth into Ginger Snaps.
Some interpretations!
