Teeth (2007)
I rented the movie Teeth
I do love movies that throw those kinds of curves in.
As I was watching it and not knowing right away that it took place in Austin, I thought based on some of the locales used, that maybe they were near some Branson cabins or something.
It wasn't until about 30 minutes in that I realized they were in Texas.
Anyway, the movie is about a girl named Dawn who is at first, cursed with vagina dentata of mythology.
Many cultures believed in this, that some women had teeth down there, and it would take a hero to conquer them, breaking the teeth away, and thus making the girl into a woman.
It's the threat of sexual intercourse for men, they enter as proud men but leave diminished.
Dawn has these teeth, and at first, it is the most terrifying thing for her.
She's a young girl saving her virginity for marriage, but lust wins out and she ends up having sex with a boy who claimed he was also saving himself.
The fear of sex for Dawn causes the teeth to come forward and bite her lovers penis off.
He runs off into the woods and eventually dies.
Another young man wants to help her, or claims to really care for her, and during the act she learns he's only with her on a bet, and yup, buh bye penis.
She soon learns the power she has, she can control the teeth, she can freely have sex if she chooses, but if the man is using her, only wants her for the sex, doesn't really care for her, then out come the teeth.
The movie is so not for the squeamish, there are several truly gory moments, men will be clutching onto themselves and turning pale at they very idea of teeth in a vagina.
It was an interesting movie, I enjoyed it anyway. It's not OMG great, but quite humorous.
I loved the part where the pervert gyno was trying to cop a feel of Dawn and her first time in stirrups.
I actually yelled at the tv for him to stop being such a pig or he's going to get more than he's bargained for.
Like losing a few fingers.
Ha!
