Features
Disc 01 •Audio Commentary with Director John Fawcett is a very interesting tour through the background and shoot of the film, filled with Fawcett's anecdotes and some personal reminiscences. •Audio Commentary with Writer Karen Walton is a somewhat more "philosophical" commentary, as probably befits a writer. Walton talks about some of the subtexts she wanted to infuse the film with, but she also gets into some of the nuts and bolts about the shoot. •Ginger Snaps: Blood, Teeth and Fur (1080p; 1:06:34) is a first rate retrospective chalk full of interviews and interesting information. This will be a must see for fans of the film. •Growing Pains: Puberty in Horror Films (1080p; 27:09) features a panel of female film buffs discussing how some of the plot points in Ginger Snaps have had antecedents in other films (like Carrie). •Deleted Scenes (1080i; 25:07). In a kind of odd authoring device, these are available under three different menu choices for original audio or commentaries by either John Fawcett or Karen Walton. •Featurette (1080p; 4:51) looks to be a vintage piece with some brief interviews and snippets from the film. •Cast Auditions and Rehearsals (1080i; 17:45) •Creation of the Beast (1080i; 4:59) is a brief look at fabrication. •Being John Fawcett (1080i; 1:57) is an odd little point of view snippet showing Fawcett rehearsing with the two lead actresses. •Theatrical Trailers (1080p; 3:45) •TV Spots (1080p; 1:01) •Production Design Artwork (1080p; 1:14) DVD Copy
