I certainly expected the comedy/horror flick Teeth to be dumber than a
bag of hammers, but this story of a young woman with a toothed vagina is
not only very funny with a cool story and excellent acting, but it's also
pretty decent horror, a bit bloody at times, but really cool to watch.
The story starts out looking like a church propaganda film as high
school student Dawn (Jess Weixler) is a leader in a local chastity group
preaching abstinence until marriage. Things quickly switch gears.
Unfortunately, Dawn finds herself in a situation where, although she
forcefully says no, her suitor forces himself on her. The surprise is on
him, though, when he finds his penis ripped off. More distraught even than
the young man, Dawn goes to the gynecologist where, after he loses four
fingers of his right hand, she discovers she has a condition called
"vagina dentata", a mythological condition which means toothed vagina.
As you might imagine, having a toothed vagina leads to a lot of
interesting situations, and Dawn eventually realizes that, in a man's
world, this might be more an advantage than a disability.
This is a really enjoyable movie, and while it doesn't take itself too
seriously, it's so well done and believably acted that it's hard not to
like.
