Teeth
High school student Dawn works hard at suppressing her budding sexuality by leading the local chastity group. A stranger to her own body, innocent Dawn discovers she has a fanged vagina when she becomes the object of violence. As she struggles to comprehend her anatomical uniqueness, Dawn experiences both the pitfalls and the power of being a living example of the vagina dentata myth.
“Teenage horror-movie spoof, John Waters parody, No Nukes protest movie, twisted sex-education film, quasi-feminist fable, outrageous stunt: Mitchell Lichtenstein’s clever, crude comedy, Teeth, is all these and more.” (Stephen Holden, New York Times)
"Light-hearted, yet subversive, displaying a surprisingly wicked bite…literally." (Jamie Tipps, Film Threat)
"TEETH is a solid first effort that makes you extremely curious about the filmmaker's next project." (Kirk Honeycutt, Hollywood Reporter)
