In early 19th-century Canada, orphaned sisters Ginger (Katharine Isabelle) and Brigitte (Emily Perkins) find themselves lost in a forest while riding on horseback. They're rescued by The Hunter (Nathaniel Arcand), a mysterious Native American who takes them back to Fort Bailey. Something strange has happened there, however. The few settlers who remain are suspicious of outsiders and keep tight-lipped about the situation, but Ginger soon discovers their secret for herself.

I was disappointed to say the least with this period prequel without a point and characters whom appear in this time without an explanation...

In Canadian cinema, sex is either perfunctory, ugly, forced, or involves a dead person.

La plupart du film reprend clairement et sans originalité les grandes lignes du premier film avec un décor et des personnages différents. Cependant, la finalité et le contexte, qui est celui de la colonisation, offre de la nouveauté. Cela est aussi déplorable que la plupart des personnages soient complétement inintéressant. Le film reste malgré tout un bon divertissement agréable à voir.

Pretty good film however I'd say it seems like more of a standalone film than a prequel. None the less a pretty decent werewolf film with some pretty good action

There was never a need for a prequel and the fact that it just completely rewrites what the first movie did make's this movie suck.

I did enjoy watching this don't get me wrong but its just not even close to the same level of Ginger Snaps 1 or 2. The characters are one sided and wooden. They mostly have one trait and that's all they are. Sets and effects are good for the limited budget. Weak plot threads with things just suddenly happening or deaths off screen was a disappointment. I do like the 1800s setting as it fits perfectly with the lore. The few additions to the lore were welcomed but still the film was still missing that edgy hardcore feeling of the first film, or even the second.
