furtechI went out and got "Ginger Snaps Back: The Beginning" (aka, "Ginger Snaps 3"). -Neat- film! Probably the best of the trilogy. The premise is silly (supposedly the ancestors of the original girls in GS1), but it's a period piece, taking place in 19th Century Canada (I love that they don't hide their Canadian roots!). So you have period costumes and lots (I mean, LOTS) of werewolves!
KNB did a terrific job on these suits: they actually look like wolves (as opposed to apes or hyperpilotic men or any-werewolf-that-doesn't-look-like-a-wolf). They also move on all fours: the designers did a great job on that aspect of design. Only complaint: tendency to lope like great apes...but I'll take it!
There's also some wonderful footage of behind the scenes stuff at the end, where you can see a lot of the werewolves and how they're designed. And it's always funny to see BTS on horror films. Loved this DVD!
Unfortunately, the only pics online I could find of the werewolves was one of their ass-end (on an effects-painter's site) and a blurry test.
While we're on it, I saw other werewolf movies at Suncoast. Are any of these any good? Brokken? Penh? Anyone?
"Dark Wolf"
"Blood Moon"
"Blood Slaves of the Vampire Wolf"
And a four pack, titled "Beasts of Terror": "Moon of the Wolf," "Snow Beast," "Scream of the Wolf," and "Wolf Man" (not the original).
I'm pretty sure I've been warned about some of these before, but my mind is going...dave...
