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!

Note: In the intro, everyone was (rightfully) mocking the rain greenscreen background I was attempting in Riverside. See it here!

Singin' in the Rain is great. Just see it. Also, friends are great. Tell them you like 'em and hang out, even if it's been a minute.

And I don't know if anyone reads this far down, but from the bottom of my heart, thank you for coming on this weird, hilarious, beautiful journey with us. I've loved almost all of it, and wouldn't trade any of it for the world.

For anyone who hasn't seen the 2012 Disney Revival-era masterpiece, Wreck-It Ralph is a Donkey Kong-type 8-bit bad guy in an arcade game, where people crap on him relentlessly for doing his job really well for 30 years with no health care or pension. When he gets cake-shamed at his own party, he decides stolen valor is the key, unleashes cybugs in candy land, then reluctantly teams up with glitched-out wannabe kart racer Vanellope von Schweetz to topple an Alan Tudyk-voiced maniacal monarch.

If you want to get emotionally wrecked in all the right ways, Ralph's your guy.

Also, video editing is a lot of work so we might not do that anymore. Sorry. Imagine faces in the theater of the mind!

Up next: It's Tanya Day, and we're doing a reunion show thanks to Eoin the Void! We're gonna be Singin' in the Rain with Alex, Chris, Tanya, and myself. I LOVED recording this even though it goes immediately off the rails.
