Reviews of Movies I Haven't Seen: Teeth

Reviews of Movies I Haven't Seen: Teeth
Dec. 30, 2007
I like movies. I'm mainly a fan of comedy films, but I do enjoy a good drama/horror film every now and then. Rarely do those genres blend well together, though (and no, I'm not counting horror spoofs). So I was quite pleased when I came across Teeth, an independent drama from Roadside Attractions.

Teeth stars the woman you see below (Jess Weixler). We know she is a woman because she has a vagina. This woman's vagina is different, though. "How is it different," you say? "Is it actually a penis," you say? No. This woman's vagina has teeth. Teeth growing in her vagina.


"What... what did you put in here?"


I don't know how anybody comes up with ideas for a movie like this, but I think once you have the idea the story just sorta writes itself. Her toothed vagina starts attacking people. Obviously. So when anybody has sex with her, their dicks are bitten off.


That hurts just to think about.


Once the premise is set the movie really gets going! More guys try to have sex with her and they get their dicks bitten off. One would think that upon realizing the vagina he is now penetrating has teeth, he'd stop. The actress is a normal looking, marginally attractive girl, so it's not like these guys are doing Jessica Alba and thinking "screw it, this is worth it!" (And let's be honest, a fair amount of guys would totally trade having their dicks bitten off to sleep with Alba.) But alas, they carry on. Bye bye, wieners.

The film also co-stars John Hensley who gives a stunning performance as the girl's bad boy stepbrother who, of course, gets it on with her. Hensley is best known for his role on FX's Nip/Tuck. Now I don't watch the show, but I remember flipping through the channels once and seeing a scene where Hensley's character tried to give himself a circumcision. It could just be coincidence, but it seems like he has a penchant for taking roles that involve penile mutilation a little too often. His sideburns in the movie totally make up for that, though.

Now, if a movie about a killer vagina that eats people wasn't enough, the icing on the cake comes by ending the trailer with... Poison lyrics.



Classy.


The movie is billed as a drama, but it's gotta be a horror/comedy at heart. It's sorta like a Troma film, but with better production, better special effects, and more vaginas with teeth in them.

Why would she not tell the guys she has a dick eating vagina?
I mean, I can understand the first guy.. I suppose.
But after the second or third, I don't think it'd have gone away.

I saw the trailer and read some reviews earlier in December, and apparently, some guy(s) try to rape her, so obviously she wouldn't tell them. Meh....I sure as hell hope I would know if I have teeth in my vagina.

Also, apparently the "toothed vagina" (aka vagina dentata, which litterally means "toothed sheath" in Latin...woo Latin scholar!) is a myth from lots of different places, mostly tribes from the Americas. These are ancient myths, obviously, but hilarious.

Looks like a retarded movie, but fun anyway.

I feel like if you were to tell a guy "Hey. Just so you know, my vagina eats dicks," he'd probably take that as an open invitation.
However, maybe if she were to say "Soo, you stick it in here, you ain't stickin' it anywhere else. Or really have anything to stick anywhere else," then she may get the point across.

There can be very stupid people. For example, theres one extremely stupid blond in my school. (Not saying all blonds are stupid, just this one.) Let me tell you how so. One day in World History Accelerated on the last day before break, we were playing a game. And the teacher asked the blond "what is happening this coming Tuesday?" She didn't even know the answer to that. So he reworded the question to "what is happening this coming Tuesday, the 25th?" Her answer was "Christmas is on a Tuesday and on the 25th?" We all laughed. (Note: she also gasped and sat up straight, surprised.) Thats just one out of many examples.

They actually have shit kind of like this....the rape condom or something. It's like a female condom but it's got crazy microscopic barbed wire "teeth" so guys get fucked over (nopun intended) and have to go to the hospital to get the thing removed. I never understood why that would work well though. What woman thinks "oh, tonight I feel like I might get raped, let's stick this lethal dick-killer condom in my vagina just in case"? Dono.

That's why I said, don't judge German cinema by it.
It has really good movies and comedies as well.

I've read that so-called dermoid cysts can evolve into fully-developed teeth, for example in the vagina, but you can't bite with them.
I don't know if that's true, though.

That's one of the funniest things I've seen in ages. I was hoping to myself it was a serious film unfortunateley it is a comedy movie, but if the movie is as funny as that trailer that'd be the best movie ever.

Uhhh...that sounds a bit wrong, but I can imagine cysts becoming like...hard or something, like cartilage. That's super gross, though, and if you're at that point you probably need serious medical help. And then those aren't teeth, just like....hard tumors.

This movie looks super fun. I'm definitely going to go find a way to see it with my friends so we can laugh about it for days. It also kind of makes me want to stick those Halloween teeth or dentures up there when I see a gynecologist....just to freak him/her out.

I've seen the movie and I don't reccomend it. It has a bunch of scenes with half-eaten dicks and fingers. Ew.
It does have some comedy in it.
Oh and by the way, she has sex with her stepbrother just to get back at him for killing her mother. So she bites his dick off...
And it doesn't just randomly happen, it's only when she's threatened.
It's like a greek legend called... something denti I believe...

But again, don't see it just because you're curious. It was probably made by someone who had too much time on their hands and too much crack. >_>

I really don't understand people saying this isn't creative and someone has too much time on their hands. I'd like you to name all the other movies that have used this plot. There aren't a lot, which makes this pretty original. And creative. Rehashing mainstream storylines isn't the only way to be a filmmaker, it may be the worst way.

That said, it wasn't a very good movie. Well shot, but the writing could really have used some work. It didn't go far enough in any one direction on the type of concept, seemed really unsure of itself.

I saw this movie last month and I thought it was a great concept and done pretty well. The whole movie had this weird atmosphere to it.

To clear up some stuff without giving much away, she was a Christian and made a vow of celibacy. So she hadn't much experience with things entering her forbidden zone. The teeth also only came out when she was stressed or angry, They also weren't at the opening so couldn't be easily seen.

It had some awesome moments in it. Like when her vagina had its first taste of flesh and she later went back to the spot only to see a crab munching on the dick. That had me laughing pretty darn hard. And the whole scene at the gyno office. Good stuff.

VAGINA DENTATA VAGINA DENTATA!!

Classy movie. The acting was terrible, and the only times I laughed were out of pure shock. I'm kind of sad that you never actually get to see the teeth, but the bloody stumps were terrible/hilarious. Basically the entire movie was to preach for abstinence, with the moral being "Don't rape people, they might just have teeth in their vagina." And sex with her step brother? Gross.

the teeth only come out to bite off dicks when said dicks are being forced unconsentually. makes it slightly less horrifying, IMO.

Ok, this idea isn't as original as you guys may think. I read a sci-fi book one time, where this guy was gonna have sex with a girl and before he was about to penetrate, her vagina turned into this metal mouth with razor sharp teeth! Seriously. Talk about scary and ridiculous for that matter! However, this girl turned out to be a psycho killing robot... but that's not my point. Point is, the idea isn't that original...

Also there are quite a few myths pertaining to this.
There is a native American one where a woman's mother put the teeth in her vagina so the mother could have revenge on men. Coyote rescued the woman from her mother's house and stuck a stone in her vagina to break the teeth "except one dull tooth, which was very enjoyable during sex". So the concept has been out there.

Maybe the guy who came up with the idea is a fan of Clerks?
In Clerks II, there is a talk about Pussy Trolls (in that case called Pillow Pants).
Now, if you don't know what Pillow Pants does, it's biting penises of if they try to have premarital sex with the girl the troll lives in...

HAHA This has got to be the funniest. Movie. Ever. It's comparable to a little chihuahua that's pretending to be a bear... or AIDS, maybe. Stupid little chihuahua, you will NEVER be important. To sum it up, this movie is a complete comedy. Especially the part when the gynecologist starts screaming "VAGINA DENTATA! VAGINA DENTATA!" over and over and over again as he stares at his bloody fingers. (By the way, Vagina Dentata is gyno-speak for "toothed vagina.")

I'm just waiting for a sequel to arise--Maybe one about a dude with a sting ray stinger as a penis. Hmm... co-starring Steve Irwin, perhaps?

This film is actually rather entertaining! Definitely a horror/comedy rather than a drama, but still wondrous regardless of the mislabeling. Also, while it may seem that her vagina bites off all who risk entry, it isn't so cruel to everyone. And regardless of all that, the ending is simply perfect. Just watch and see, joyous children of Earth.

Does your vagina have teeth? Does it keep biting people's dicks off?
Dick biting is the main cause in vaginadenta plaque...But with the new "Vagastix" your teeth get a tasty treat and are now Plaque free ;D

New "Vagastix" Better than brushing :D

"Only 5.99 at all local retail stores, warning may induce diahreah, vomiting, internal bleeding, external bleeding, homophobia, homosexuality, death in homosexual homophobics, temporary blindness, permanent blindness, "Vagastix blindness", athleats foot and Smell fingers"

Dude, it's totally billed as a "black comedy," and the idea is an ancient one known as "Vagina Dentatam,"mainly used as a story to deter people from rape or sex with strange women.

And this chick is definitely pretty strange.

I actually saw this movie and it was pretty much just a waste of an hour and a half of my life that i will never get back. It was cheesy, the acting was terrible, the plot sucked (as you said, her vagina eats people's dicks and the movie ends.) The only thing that changes is, in the end, she takes advantage of her toothed vagina.
Though the idea is hilarious, i wouldnt reccomend seeing it. Its just a bad idea.

P.S. - She gets raped at first, thats why she didnt tell anyone.

I saw this movie and I'm going to agree with everyone who's said it previously: "Teeth" sucked. Bad acting and all. But I have to admit, to a group of twenty or so teenage girls, it wouldn't matter if someone filmed it in their backyard. It was hilarious, that's pretty much all that mattered. I don't recommend it, though, unless you can stand to look at disembodied penises for two hours.
