I really enjoyed thw other 2 movies in the series, I had this movie for few years now, I have tried to watch it a few times, I could never really get into. So yesterday , I deiced to watch in full for once and I still find it really hard to get into movie. I wasn't bored with this movie, I was just watching it but I was not liked what I was seeing. There were some decent bloody and gory moments in this movie, That I liked and I the werewolf looked good in the movies, some decent effects. I didn't enjoy ginger snap 3 as much as the other to movies in the series. 5 out of 10

Origin Stories are Cool, most of the time. But in the Original Ginger Snaps the Origin was Original enough to make it the Sleeper Hit of its Era. It was sharp, smart, and, yes, snappy. This Movie is none of the above, it is dull, depressing, and slow.It looks good and there seemed to be some Energy in the Production but it all gets lost in a wildly muddled Script. The Characters are all bland and the Native American Curse stuff is painful and confusing. Our two Sisters huddle together forever and look out of place and out of time/space.An unwanted and ill received mess, this is not horrible but really takes an effort to like. A shame, because the Audience is with this from the beginning. Bringing along previous thoughts and anxieties from the first two Movies that had a genuine allure. This one is Soul less with rough edges that are never smoothed into a believable and exciting Film. It tries way too hard to be a Profound Period Piece, adding depth to the Trilogy. In the end it is an unwelcome miss on most levels, but Horror Fans may give it a Pass. Ginger Snap Fans may give it a Fail.

The third and final instalment of the GINGER SNAPS trilogy and also by far the best of the three films. Eschewing the teen angst and modern-day ponderings of the first two movies, GINGER SNAPS BACK posits itself as a sort-of prequel, telling virtually the same story but setting it in the 19th century and in a remote area of the Canadian wilderness.The plot involves a remote outpost under siege, not dissimilar to THE ALAMO. The besiegers are werewolves. If that's not enough to whet your appetite, then I don't know what is, but I was hooked from the outset. There's still plenty of mileage to be had in the sisterly relationship between Ginger and Brigitte, and as in the first film their bond holds everything together.Let's get this straight: this is a B-movie made on a low budget, although for the most part that budget is well hidden. The settings, from the wooden mini-fortress to the snowbound woodlands, are well shot and atmospheric, and the creature effects are the best of the whole series. The characters are all stereotypes, but fun with it: there's the fire-and-brimstone preacher, the grieving captain, the friendly Native American tracker, the elderly doctor, the hard-ass soldier. Guessing which of them is going to be the next to be bumped off is half of the fun.The story plays out as you'd expect, building to an impressive and grisly climax in which the full horror of the situation becomes apparent. Yet it's that sweet, poignant central relationship that makes this film stand out above other similar fare. Katharine Isabelle may bag the more obvious role of the two sisters, but it's Emily Perkins who ends up as the most bewitching. Director Grant Harvey, a newcomer to the trilogy at this late stage, handles the elements remarkably. It's just a shame more B-movies don't have the imagination and strength that this film displays.

This "prequel" to the outstanding 2000 original, I think, is better than the sequel, "unleashed". What we have here is basically a retelling of the original story as a period drama - same sisters, same names, same actresses. After their parents' death (murder? There is some suggestion that they may have done something to Mom & Dad), the two main characters we've come to love - played by Katharine Isabelle and Emily Perkins for the third time - end up at a fort in 1800's Canada after meeting a handsome young Native American (Canadian?) man. The characters they meet are colorful, to say the least. Especially the preacher who could put a Salem witch-hunter to shame (Hugh Dillon, who I understand from the commentary is mainly a singer - fine performance here; I'd like to see more of him acting). But this particular fort, of course, is besieged by werewolves that the inhabitants are struggling to protect themselves from. Ginger, as in the first film, is bitten, and her sisters' sense of devotion ultimately curses her to become what her sister is becoming.My favorite scenes? The "leech werewolf test" (you'll know what I'm talking' about when you see it if you watch the film yourself), and the partially-transformed Ginger's return to the fort with some of her new pack-mates to raise a little h--l.Impressive acting - especially, as in all three films, from our two leading wolf-girls - as well as set design and make-up/creature effects. Check this one out - you won't be disappointed.
