Well the topic's pretty self-explainitory. I'm simply posting this because last night I finally got around to renting and watching Gingersnaps. I must say it was the best movie I'd ever seen on the topic...which honestly isn't saying much..but it was great. Any other opinions?

Gingersnaps is good.
I also liked The Howling.
Silver Bullet is alright.
The best movie to ever contain a werewolf has to be Monster Squad though. ;) That's a classic.

It's a Werewolf!!!! and I also think Ginger Snaps was The best werewolf movie I have ever seen. I also thought part 2 was better than the first one. :D :D

lycan = werewolf
remember in Underworld? I don't think say 'werewolf' once in that movie, just 'lycan'.

Not big on werewolves, usually look like a dweeb in a bad Halloween costume, but Ginger Snaps was awesome!
That one could make me a fan!:D

Pretty much what I think... In the end, Ginger Snaps has some great concepts behind it, which is always good... Besides that... Well, Silver Bullet is OK, and so is An American Werewolf in London...

I don't remember ever seeing any good werewolf movies...
I think it's a bit misleading to call werewolfs lycanthropes, because basically the word means a person who sufferes from a disease called Lycanthropy. this disease makes a person think that s/he's turning into an animal, not necessarely a wolf, but some animal like a bear or a bison.
ly·can·thrope ( P ) Pronunciation Key (lkn-thrp, l-kn-)
n.
1. A werewolf.
2. A person affected with lycanthropy
^ From dictionary.com ^
Dog Soldiers
Werewolf in London
Gingersnaps
The Howling
Teen Wolf !!???!!! jk:D

I could give you a link to site that talks about other animals too, but it would be useless because it's a finnish site...

I hoestly coulnt care less about Ginger Snaps, I havent seen it, but it looks really stupid. My votes are on: Underworld,
The Wolfman(1941)
Van Helsing
Frankenstien Meeets The Wolfman
I love those movies....I think Hellboy should have had a warewolf, that would be sweet

... Staggerlee is correct it can be a wereboar, werebear etc...
The Howling was ok as was Gingersnaps (But not as good as people say, at all), but in general werewolf movies are not very good!!!

i agree ginger snaps sucked
The howling and american werewolf in london are the two best.
That sence in howling were the man changed in to a were wolf on front of that other person, and he had no where to run to!
now thats a classic. o man the hoplessness he must have felt.
