"Even Lambs Have Teeth" is the latest in the never-ending genre of revenge films. It tells a story about two best friends (one who just needs to strap a mattress on her back for convenience) who have decided to work in "nature" at some sort of camp in order to earn money to go shopping in NYC. As it usually turns out, there's something in them thar' woods, and all seems lost.Face it guys, we've seen this same story about a billion times--only done way better. "Last House on the Left," "Avenged," "I Spit on Your Grave," are just a few that have taken revenge to another level, which is something "Lambs" tried but just couldn't do. Why? A very ineffective and simply unbelievable script. All I could do was snicker when I saw two girls (covered in blood) walk through stores in a very small town without being noticed. The local preacher can be tied to the back of a pickup truck and drug through town--then sat afire-- without being noticed. There are a few (and I mean few) moments of "comedy," but not enough to put a dent in this big old mess.Rated "R" for some grisly violence, brief nudity, and rape.

Budget flick.Lacking in any real plot.Acting is poor, script is poor.These revenge movies fail completely if you don't create characters you empathise with.Not sure what the movies is trying to be, it avoids the gore so isn't a horror, no tension so not a thriller.Typical movie on IMDb though, full of people rating it as if its a modern day classic.Don't know what these fake reviews are meant to achieve.Its a poor film and no fake reviews are going to hide that.

clearly multiple false reviews have been submitted for this movie so let me give you a genuine one after sitting through this.so movie opens with some teenagers screwing around as they do, doing some drugs blah blah blah. they get high and we get opening credits. scene has absolutely nothing to do with the rest of the movie and none of the characters in this scene beside the 2 lead females are in the remainder of the film. so moving on these girls are headed to some farm so they can work and earn money to go to new york for a shopping trip? they wind up making the clearly terrible decision to catch a ride with 2 stranger dudes to this farm as opposed to getting their scheduled bus and wind up getting drugged, kidnapped and thus begins their ordeal and they supposedly get raped and tortured (but you wouldn't know for sure because the movie fades to black anytime anything bad happens so basically everything is suggested ) and we watch as they make their miraculous escape and carry out their revenge. so now that i've summarised the terrible paper-thin plot lets talk about the acting. to cut it short, some of it was OK the rest was truly shake-your-head terrible. the script was dumb as hell and full of holes and there was at least half a dozen moments where i sat there wondering if i should just switch off or grit and bear the rest of the movie. the 2 leads did OK with what they had and that's why I'm not completely down rating this movie. the terrible script puts them in stupid situations and they make the best of it (for the most part) but sometimes they say things or do things that just make you think "what the F. really?"shame cos it did show potential but it was one of the poorest most predictable horror movies i've ever seen. just a much weaker version of i spit on your grave / last house on the left. go watch those instead or something like martyrs (original), frontiers, inside, switchblade romance, or any genuinely solid horror movie. 3/10

I saw this movie at its "world premiere" in Denver in October 2015. The cast and crew were on hand to talk about it before and after. This review is spoiler free because there is very little to spoil. The film is a quick 80 min. So quick that it feels rushed, not much thought was put into the most crucial scenes. The actors said it took 3 weeks to shoot, 12 hours a day, but it felt more like they had banged it out in a few days. Things happen very suddenly and with very little weight or consequence. I'm guessing that's due to the very low budget. Most of the action occurs off-screen, something the crew claims to be intentional, but I suspect it was also the effect of limited funds and even more limited imagination, since there are plenty of low-budget films who managed way more creative solutions in the face of scarce financing. There are, to be fair, a few really funny moments, but on the whole the entire script is too ludicrous to take even halfway seriously. If somebody invites you to see this film, bring a bottle of booze and settle in. You're in for a night of amateurish acting and terrible puns. These lambs may have teeth, but they're small and dull.
