Brigitte(Emily Perkins)survives her struggle with her sister Ginger(Katerine Isabelle)and now must find a way to overcome her own infection and control the beast that is growing in her. Brigitte overdoses on her own dangerous 'cure' and wakes up in a drug rehab center in an old abandoned hospital. She partners up with a pre-teen named Ghost(Tatiana Maslany), who is obsessed with horror comic books. The young girl is excited about discovering Brigitte's werewolf 'condition', but really has no idea of the terrifying adventure that awaits her.
This intense script sustains escalating tension and presents a powerful finale not easy to forget. The idea of bloodletting, masturbation and drug use joined with various sexual content and language equals an R rating. Besides this movie is too dark and disturbing for the very young viewer. If you can't stomach the site of blood...DON'T watch! Ginger(Isabelle)only appears in a couple of cameo scenes...and I for one really missed her. I have yet to jump on the Perkins fan wagon. Most impressive is young Maslany, who plays her role with sharp wit and dry humor; but yet so damn disturbing. If this series continues, I'd like for her to appear again. Other cast members of note: Eric Johnson, Janet Kidder and Chris Fassbender. All-in-all, GINGER SNAPS:UNLEASHED proves that a sequel can generate enough power to stand on its own.
