Wesley Morris Boston Globe As amateurishly made as it is, Teeth runs on a kind of angry distrust toward boys. Rated: 2/4 Nov 24, 2011 Full Review Dave Calhoun Time Out I'm not sure I've ever seen rape, incest or abuse dealt with so vapidly. Rated: 1/5 Nov 17, 2011 Full Review Jim Emerson Chicago Sun-Times Whether you view it as a primordial image from the collective unconscious or a practical warning against promiscuity, vagina dentata makes an indubitably memorable impression -- and an ideal premise for a tongue-in-cheek teen horror movie. Rated: 3/4 Mar 28, 2008 Full Review Michael Cuby them. [It] loses some of its impact because it was written and directed by a man, but given its sensitive handling of these controversial issues, it’s safe to say that the openly gay Mitchell Lichtenstein deserves at least a bit of credit for what he achieved. Nov 16, 2022 Full Review Debbie Lynn Elias Behind The Lens As to anxious inquiries by myself and a colleague about a sequel, Lichtenstein sees it as a clear possibility. After all, 'there's more work for her to do.' Teeth - it will give you something to chew on. Nov 9, 2019 Full Review Annie Wagner The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Teeth isn't perfect, but it's definitely one of a kind-and the abstinence-only parody is priceless.

Calvin T But how does this contribute to Taylor Swifts legacy? Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 06/27/24 Full Review Melissa L The movie had an original theme, and some scares, some comedy. I recommend it for comedy horror. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 06/19/24 Full Review Kate S Billed as a comedy, and while there's some dark humor, most of it is flat and unoriginal. The concept is good, but it's not enough to fill a feature-length film, so there is a lot of filler and the plot moves incredibly slow. I found myself hitting the "forward 5 seconds" so often that the last half of the movie was only 15 minutes. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 06/09/24 Full Review Vinny Q Its definitely a movie. the comedy is okey, plot is a plot. good movies if you want to weird out your friends with a strange find. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/25/24 Full Review John M It's original and funny but a bit too revengy and extreme. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 12/13/23 Full Review Gloria W I am usually very, VERY not into comedy horror but this was amazing. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/19/22 Full Review Read all reviews
