Written and directed by David Kaplan, it features Christina Ricci in the title role and Quentin Crisp as the narrator.

An anthropomorphized black wolf tries to trick Little Red Riding Hood.

Upon knowing her path, he gracefully runs and jumps to get to the grandmother's house before Little Red does.

The film has been interpreted by scholar Jennifer Orme as having queer themes present throughout.

She argues that Kaplan's adaptation puts into question the heteronormative interpretation of the classic Little Red Riding Hood story and invites viewers to have a queer reading of it, through various aspects of the film.
