Ginger Snaps is an old English Canadian horror film, hugely influential on later movies but still a bit of a cult classic itself, one of my favourites.
The two leads in Ginger Snaps are great. They made the movie. Some of the secondary cast ... Not so much. Needed acting lessons.
Two Canadian movies that I saw about five years ago and enjoyed:
Highway 61 (1991)
Last Night (1998)
Don McKellar starred in both and also directed Last Night. Highway 61 is about a road trip down...you guessed it...Highway 61. From a Canadian town on that highway south through the route in the U.S. from Minnesota southwards. Aside from McKellar, the other actors in the film are not famous (or even close). They still do a good job IMO. There are some very good dry humor scenes in this flick.
Wonder if they drove through my hometown.
I see a lot of non-famous Canadian actors (at least to Americans) in TV movies on Lifetime and Hallmark.
Heard of Ali Skovbye? Or Samantha Ferris? Or Stephanie von Pfetten?
None of those movies would qualify as best Canadian movies by a long shot.
Maybe Eastern Promises? I loved it but I felt it ended too abruptly and was too short.
Are you sure this is a Canadian movie? It says USA when I checked, but not sure how this is decided anyways as that film takes places in England. But this raises a good question. What exactly makes a movie Canadian? Ex is it Canadian if the script is written by a Canadian, directed by a Canadian, filmed in Canada or has a mainly Canadian cast. Anyone have any idea how this works?

It was made by David Cronenberg who is from Toronto so to some people that makes it Canadian.

Good to know, but if it was not pointed out I would have never assumed it would be considered a Canadian film. Makes me wonder what else we might not be getting credit for.

Is it really a Canadian film just because the guy who made it was Canadian?
