The companion film for our werewolf/coming-of-age stories is a unique one. Filmed in Canada, directed by John Fawcett and written by Fawcett and Karen Walton, 2000's "Ginger Snaps" tackles the puberty issue from the female perspective. Ginger (Katharine Isabelle) and Bridgette (Emily Perkins) Fitzgerald are the outcast sisters at their high school, obsessed with death and making their mark on the world through some very dark art and a suicide pact. They're also dealing with a haughty and beautiful mean girl, Trina (Danielle Hampton) and a high-school romeo on the make, Jason (Jesse Moss), and some creature killing local dogs. To top everything off, Ginger gets her first period, something she desperately wanted never to happen. After deciding to kidnap Trina's dog as revenge, they find the dog already dead, leading to Ginger being attacked by whatever's responsible. It turns out that the creature responsible is a werewolf, who is later killed by drug dealer Sam's (Kris Lemche) van. As Ginger starts to experience yet more physical changes, Bridgette and Sam begin to search for some sort of cure. But, as in any good horror film, things go awry in a most spectacular way. Also starring John Bourgeois and Mimi Rogers! Plus, the gents reveal which two films chronicling the rise and fall of a band make up their next pairing!

This pairing combines the werewolf genre with coming-of-age stories! First up, it's back to the cheese-fest that was the 1980s and Michael J Fox's follow-up film to the sensation that was "Back to the Future!" Directed by Rod Daniel, and written by Jeph Leob and Matthew Weisman, 1985's "Teen Wolf" tells the story of high school student and mediocre basketball player Scott Howard (Fox). Scott has two close friends, the wild and unpredictable Stiles (Jerry Levine) and the subtly gorgeous "Boof" (Susan Ursitti) who'd like to be more than friends. Unfortunately for her, Scott has a crush on the blonde popular girl Pamela (Lorie Griffin). And to make matters worse, Scott begins to experience some... interesting physical changes, beyond that of normal puberty: He's a werewolf. Of course, the first time he fully turns, he discovers that he comes from a family of werewolves when he comes face-to-face with "shifted" father, Harold (James Hampton). But when Scott shifts to werewolf form on the basketball court in the middle of a game, his life takes an unexpected turn and he becomes both a successful athlete and quite popular! But sudden fame and popularity has its drawbacks too, as Scott soon learns. Also starring Matt Adler, Mark Holton, and Jay Tarses!

Our second film is an independent venture from England, loosely based on the legend of two infamous East London gangsters Ronald and Reginald Kray. Directed by Sacha Bennett, 2014's "We Still Kill the Old Way" focuses on brothers Charlie (Steven Berkoff) and Richie (Ian Ogilvy) Archer. Long after they ruled the streets, Charlie still lives in East London while Richie has moved to Spain. Unfortunately a new gang has moved into the Archer's old neighborhood. Calling themselves the E2, this group of post-adolescent thugs, led by the sociopathic Aaron (Danny Boy Hatchard), rule the streets through extreme violence and terror. Aaron is currently wooing a young girl, Lizzie (Dani Dyer), and after finally getting her in bed, lures her to an alley where the rest of his boys plan to rape her. Charlie, headed home from a night out, catches the gang in the act and tries to stop it, allowing Lizzie to escape. Facing off against the E2, however, results in Charlie's death. Lizzie (Lysette Anthony), an old friend of the Archer's and the person who found Charlie's body in the alley, calls Richie in Spain to inform him of his brother's death. Shortly thereafter, Richie returns to East London and reunites with several of his old crew members: Roy (Christopher Ellison), Arthur (James Cosmo), and Butch (Tony Denham). The four of them embark on a mission to discover who killed Charlie and enact revenge for everything else they've done as well. Also starring Alison Doody, Johnny Palmiero, and Nathan Clarke. Plus, find out which two non-traditional werewolf movies Buddy has in store for the team in the next pairing!

Revenge is the topic of this pairing, with a film from each of the last two decades. To lead off, the film that's become synonymous with picking on the wrong guy... Directed by Pierre Morel, and written by Luc Besson and Robert Mark Kamen, 2008's "Taken" turned Liam Neeson from a romantic lead into an action star! Bryan Mills (Neeson) is a divorced father trying to be a part of his daughter's life after being mostly-absent due to his job. Unfortunately, his ex-wife Lenore (Famke Janssen) has re-married to Stuart (Xander Berkeley), a rich international businessman, who spoils their daughter Kim (Maggie Grace) very effectively. After being guilted into allowing Kim and her friend Amanda (Katie Cassidy) to go off to Paris on their own, his worst nightmare comes true: Kim is kidnapped by the Albanian mob and will be forced into a life of prostitution. But Bryan has a particular set of skills, and tells the kidnapper on the phone that he will use them to track them all down, kill them, and bring his daughter back safely. Of course, they don't believe him. They should have. Also starring Leland Orser, Jon Gries, David Warshofsky, and Holly Valance.
