Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Filmed back-to-back with Ginger Snaps 2: Unleashed in Edmonton, Alberta during a brutally cold winter that added genuine misery to performances.
The film's depiction of the Hudson's Bay Company fort deliberately mirrors historical accounts of isolation and violence, with the werewolves serving as metaphor for colonialism's consuming nature.
