9-The haunted World Of El Superbeasto
An animated film based on comic books by Rob Zombie. This is one of the best "for adults" cartoons I have seen since "Fritz the Cat"!! It has a lot going on. Massive amounts of crude, nasty humor perpetrated by all kinds of wonderful monstrous characters, fun as Hell animation, and lots of violence. It's great! I would love to live in their awesome monster cartoon city! The story is about the adventures of El Superbeasto, a super cocky Luchador wrestler and his super vixen sister Suzi-X. This film is definitely not for kids! It contains all kinds of fun stuff like cartoon boobs, battling Nazi Zombies, and the hilariously pathetic Dr. Satan. The cast kicks ass! It includes Sid Haig, Sherri Moon Zombie, Ken Foree, Brian Posehn, Bill Moseley, Cassandra Peterson, Clint Howard, Harlan Williams, Paul Giamatti, Geoffrey Lewis, Danny Trejo, and an extremely foul mouthed (and wonderful) performance by Rosario Dawson. If you are a fan of Rob Zombie's comics, Ralph Bakshi/John Kricfalusi style animation, or a really immature sense of humor (lord knows I am) then you should love this!!!

10-Ginger Snaps
The IMDB description says this movie uses Werewolfism as a metaphor for puberty. I don't know about all that, but I do know, for a movie that many Horror snobs pass off as wimpy teeny bopper fair, it actually kicks a lot of ass in my opinion. Katharine Isabelle and Emily Perkins play sisters Ginger and Brigitte Fitzgerald, your run of the mill suburban goth kids. One night, Ginger gets chomped on by a crazy, big, black, dog-like thing. You know what that means! There's a lot to love about this coming of age werewolf tale. I think the tone is good, the acting and special effects are actually not too bad, and it's darkly humorous. Funny enough, it definitely has a "filmed in Canada" feel to it. I'm not sure exactly how you can tell, but it's in the film quality or lighting or something! Either way though, it has a lot of funny moments in it, quite a bit of violence, and decent enough character development that by the end you actually give a shit what's going on. If your in the mood for a moody, but funny, "sister power through Lycanthropy" flick, then I highly recommend this one!!!

Favorite Scene : Ginger walks into the school after her attack, in slow motion and looking sexy.
It's actually a toss-up between the slow-mo scene and the guy hanging out on the bleachers yelling "Yes! Run for Daddy!" at the chicks in gym class.
Yeah! The slo-mo scene is pretty awesome. Although, I think my favorite part is when she kicks the shit out of that chick during field hockey.
