References
Werewolf of London (1935)
 -  a plant is used as a means of treating lycanthropy
Carrie (1976)
 -  uses horror-movie conventions as an inspired metaphor for puberty
Halloween (1978)
An American Werewolf in London (1981)
 -  The abrupt ending, as the monster dies, is a direct stylistic reference to the ending of American Werewolf in London.
Blade Runner (1982)
The Company of Wolves (1984)
 -  curse as in werewolf and as in menstruation
The Blair Witch Project (1999)
 -  When Ginger is originally dragged off, we are given a shot of Brigitte running into the forest shouting, "Ginger! Ginger!" exactly like the shot of Heather (in BWP) running into the forest screaming, "Josh! Josh!". Same jerky handheld camerawork and lighting etc. Also, the scene where Brigitte slowly descends into the basement (multiple landings and everything) tearfully muttering, "Sam?" (much like Heather does at the end of BWP, muttering, "Mike?").
Silent Hill (1999) (VG)

 -  poster on wall
Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy (2004)
 -  There is a shot of a woman screaming 'Baxter' after her dog is killed by the Beast of Bailey Downs, directly followed by a shot of a dog identical to Burgundy's dog Baxter. Ron Burgundy screams Baxter in the same way after Baxter is punted off the bridge. There is also a reference to bears being able to smell menstruation in Ginger Snaps, this is echoed by Brick's objections to Veronica Corningstone in Anchorman.
