I have seen a lot of horror movies in my life, some, like The Excorcist, have scared me to death. But others like Dead Silence have bored me to death. Teeth is a fine example of a movie which seems to be stupid and appears to be a joke, then becomes scary as hell. Yes, I must admit that as a male, this movie scared the crap out of me on some certain scenes. The plot is definately new and the film sets up the ending almost perfectly, while I honestly though this film was going to be dumb, I guess I proved myself wrong.
Teeth, the whole movie can be summed up by saying that this girl had a man eating vagina. That's how I explain this movie to others when they ask what it is about. while I am not 100% correct with that description, I am not really wrong either. While this movie can be scary and disgusting, it shows the story of Dawn. And as she discovers how these teeth work, she begins to get c*cky with it. She then begins to use it to her advantage, sort of how Micheal Myers took the whole knife thing to a new level, Dawn brings pu**y teeth to the next level.
Males beware! There are about 3 scenes where a mans area is actually bitten off. Each of these scenes are shown in graphic detail and sometimes humorous. With surprising amounts of blood and detail, these are certainly scenes in which made me cringe. Other then just being a blood fest though, the movie takes on a lot of character study into Dawn. As we see 2 sides of her, the nice and clean side in the beginning. And the dirty and more messed up version by the end.
There is a moment in the movie which everybody talks about, because it is a great moment. Unforgettable. Dawn goes to a doctor to get checked out, so after a series of questions he finally digs in and discovers the truth. As his hand gets stuck inside of Dawn, he pulls out and is missing either 3 of 4 fingers, I forget. This moments is extremely horrifying. I honestly dont know why but its that one scene in this movie which just brings it all to a new level.
Teeth is certainly one of my top 50 horror films I have ever seen. Gruesome, funny and gross. Take a bite out of this one!! Haha, get it!
