Okay, okay, I'll put my hands up. I know I praised the second addition to this franchise,
DVD Extras: A trailer, some deleted scenes, a two-minute butcher's at the "Wolfboy" make-up process, and director Grant Harvey's video diary. Version reviewed Gingers Snaps Back: The Beginning

It's Got: There's some wise old Native American hocus-pocus which seems to have been thrown in as a wholly-unnecessary after-thought.
It Needs: The wolf-out process to be a little less half-hearted - I'm sure the actors did it a little more enthusiastically in the first two instalments.
Alternatives: Ginger Snaps, Ginger Snaps: Unleashed, The Village
Summary: Let's hope this confusing and inferior addition to the franchise is Ginger's final snap.
