So one day I was thinking about Ginger Snaps and I realized these movies touch on alot of fucked up subjects, I mean if they had really gone in and explored some of the subjects you see it would be the most fucked up trilogy in the world. For examples in all three movies subjects include:
The meaninglessness of modern life Murder Suicide Self mutilation Rape Sexual abuse (actually all sexual moments in these movies are violent and/or degrading) Bestiality Incest Child abuse Elder abuse Drug abuse Rape Parricide Rape Bullying Forced confinement venereal disease Sibling violence
Not to mention the fact that one can take the underlying message of the first movie as "Love does not conquer all."

Yeah you have a point there, but you said rape 3 times, but I don't think there was incest in any GS movie ... And what is: Bestiality and Parricide?

Bestiality is sex with animals, Parricide is murder of close family members ie parents and siblings. In the first movie Ginger comes on to Brigitte, which would be incest, but like I said it only touches on these subjects really, really lightly.

I like the way you mentioned Rape 3 times! Whether it was intentional or not, it was funny. But you're right, what a sick trilogy. But yet, a great and favourite of mine.

I think it might be because of it, that they rock.. they're trying to pick up question the society is trying to hide, and things that are taboo, which I think is great.

I don't think they did it intentionally, it's just when you're making a fucked up trilogy these things happen.
And yes, the repetition was intentional, since rape seems to be at theme in all three XD

I think those subjects just make the story more unique. ^_^ Lovey-dovey werewolf movies are not as interesting in my opinion.

Well, if you were to indulge into your incest scene, wouldn't that also lead into homosexuality seeing as to they're both girls/women?

LOL ^^ Anyway, like someone said before I think that it is all of these things that make the movies awesome. It touches on so many subjects (even if it is ever so lightly) that are often left alone.

Oh, yeah, totally!! If it didn't get into anything odd, it just wouldn't be the same. I totally envy Karen Walton for creating such an amazing movie with such different and real characters
