Teeth


Out of boredom, I've been watching random videos in Youtube for the past hour. Then I saw this trailer for a movie called Teeth. Here's a synopsis from IGN.com.

High school student Dawn (Jess Weixler) works hard at suppressing her budding sexuality by being the local chastity group's most active participant. Her task is made even more difficult by her bad boy stepbrother Brad's (John Hensley) increasingly provocative behavior at home. A stranger to her own body, innocent Dawn discovers she has a toothed 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.

The premise is so preposterous that it's funny. The fact that the actors act so serious makes it even more hilarious. It's described as a horror-comedy, and it's supposed to have won some award at some festival, so I guess it IS good. I wonder if this will ever be shown in local cinemas. lol.

I must say, I can relate to the look of horror in the faces of those guys. I would probably be even more horrified if I was in their place. hehe.
