olsonmd-59967 You really need to have a different sense of humor to fully appreciate this movie. I thought it was a great dark comedy. If you're looking for an Oscar-worthy movie, then you've come to the wrong place. Don't take this movie too seriously and you'll really enjoy it. It's a really fun movie to watch on Netflix at 1am.
keelhaul-80856 This film is one of those movies where you stop halfway through and think, "WTF am I watching? and should I finish this?"Then, you realize you wasted this much time so far, so you take a couple more shots and keep watching to see how they wrap up this silliness. I suppose this film is much more of a black comedy than horror. Although, I was glad I had already gotten laid that night before watching this, as it isn't really a big turn-on LOL.Basically, though, it seems this movie was written by extreme feminists. If you notice, practically every man in the film is sleazy, a rapist, oblivious to female suffering, or a total psycho pervert. Her stepbrother wants to rape her(and only bangs girls in the butt, as he is still afraid of a childhood incident where his sister's vagina bit his finger), her crush rapes her, her "hero" that finally gets one off without being bitten inside her--well, turns out he is also a jerk who, for some dumb reason, tells her that he made a bet to bang her while she is still banging him. After disposing of him, she gets a creepy doctor who sticks his fingers in without gloves and so she takes his fingers off. The only male who doesn't fit the description of the Boston Strangler/Hitler in this film is perhaps her dad, who stands up to his weird son, but is nearly killed by the dog.Anyway, there are some really funny moments in this(the making fun of religious zealot promise ring retreats, guys who look like the Jonas brothers, the obvious shots of nuclear power plants directly behind the family home to hint about how the girl mutated, the rapist guy screaming "I haven't jerked off since EASTER!!!") However, there are some boring parts as well, and this movie comes off like "Pumpkin" with Christina Ricci-- it can't really decide what it wants to be, and leaves you with a pile of silly, concocted nonsense. OK for a one-time watch, but once you get the main idea, there is nothing to see here...
M MALIK I have seen a lot of horror and other films and i never raised expectations no matter what the film genre is when i heard about this film i had hopes but i was left with disappointment after watching this film its boring and not even little bit entertaining however it does leaves a false message to men that sex is bad and women are evil,i don't know if this movie can be classified into a horror category its not its more like a dark comedy or satire.The Plot:a young high school girl Dawn soon finds out after having sex with a boy that shes got something dangerous inside of her.The Cast:Jess Weixler shows some good acting skills other then that the rest cast is passable.The film is about a girl who has Vaginal Dentata she does get intimate with some men and they die because of the teeth inside vagina damaging their sex organ and for revenge she does it with her brother and a boy but the end the girl chooses to become some sort of freelancer or just for fun murderer to punish men she's got a weapon and is not afraid to use it plus no jury can convict her,the film got great locations and scenery but unbelievable bad story a tale that has stupidity written allover it as a lot of critics and people have talked about this film the positives or flaws but to further talk about this is a waste of time.Overall Teet 2007 is a dull film avoid it at all costs if anyone is thinking that this is hardcore stuff beware its not there is no such thing here my rating is 3/10 Skipp it.
popcorninhell Is it easy to assume that Teeth (2007) is the best film of its subject matter? I don't just mean a story about a young woman with a very biting problem in her nether region but probably the best anti-horror film ever made, or at least in recent memory. The film stars Jess Weixler as the aforesaid young woman Dawn. Leader of the local community's Abstinence club and overall awkward teenager, Dawn takes care of her sick mother (Vivienne Benesch) with the help of her doting stepfather (Lenny von Dohlen) and the non-help of her stepbrother Brad (John Hensley). But all is not well as she slowly discovers her sexuality with temptation in the form of Tobey (Hale Appleman) her hunky Christian "friend". When she discovers she has a very eunuch-ly troubling affliction, her sexual awakening has a casualty or two.I say anti-horror movie because horror movies, at least in the classical sense are anti-feminist. Both sexes are tortured and killed in the genres most popular fare to be sure, but women are often times given one of two designations; the slut or the virginal survivor. Essentially the major female characters are defined not by what they can bring to the table but by their sexuality. Any woman not defined by those labels is filler and if you're unlucky enough to be the slut, you're punished for the crime of being sexually active on screen.In Teeth, the tropes are turned on their head. Much like Simone Simon's character in Cat People (1942), Dawn is a woman chained by the guilt of her sexual feelings. She positions herself in the abstinence crowd as a form of escape but is only further enticed to act upon her impulses. She's a female character that is refreshingly complex and goes through a realistic yet drastic character change throughout the course of the movie.Perhaps if the men in her life didn't act so foolishly and didn't take advantage of her vulnerability, things could have gone a little differently. As it stands there are no redeemable male characters other than maybe the stepfather. Even then there was a subtle undertow of unrequited sexual tension. I did feel bad for the gynecologist but he was acting a little unprofessionally.Aesthetically speaking the cinematography is too morose for its subject matter. Had the film been in the hands of Bryan Forbes or even John Waters, things might have been purposely funny instead of unintentionally so. It didn't help that the musical score provided by Robert Miller was way, way, way too on the nose. Lest I be impassive by castration, the music blares in grandiloquent tones as if to say look how shocking this moment is! I suppose I'm just not clear of the director's motivations with this film. Is it meant to be a feminist critique of the horror genre told by a teenager with a wicked smile and a sideways Chelsea grin to match? If so, is it meant to be taken seriously? One thing is for sure; while young women are told the chaste cautionary tales of Snow White and Red Riding Hood, young men may one day be told similar horror stories about the dreaded vagina dentata.http://theyservepopcorninhell.blogspot.com
