Trailer: ‘Teeth’

Teeth is a special breed of horror-comedy. One that as the Hollywood Reporter put it after an early Sundance viewing, may be the “first horror movie that women drag men to see rather than the reverse.” How’s that? There’s no way to put this delicately - we’re talking about vagina dentata. For the layperson: Teeth, down there.

Directed by Mitchell Lichtenstein (son of pop artist Roy Lichtenstein) in his feature-length debut, Teeth stars newcomer Jess Weixler as a teen-chastity group member doing her damndest to suppress the secrets of her anatomically incorrect state. That is until puppy love and lust enters the picture, and I shouldn’t have to spell it out further, but, there will be blood.

IGN provides the just released Teeth trailer and a new one-sheet that drops the cutesy pretense that you see here, and opts for all the dark angles. The film is scheduled for limited release on November 30, wide open in December.]
