Storia
Dawn grows up under the shadow of a nuclear power plant and discovers she has an unusual ability: her vagina possesses teeth that attack anyone who attempts sexual contact with her. This 'curse,' which she considers an adaptation due to her biology class's study on evolution, is hidden from others until it causes unexpected consequences during high school. Dawn pledges to remain chaste until marriage and dates Tobey in group settings to resist temptation. However, things between them take an unexpected turn, leading Dawn to seek help from admirer Ryan. Throughout the film, Dawn struggles with her curse, which ultimately becomes a source of empowerment as she learns to navigate her own destiny.
Riassunto
'Teeth' (2007), directed by Mitchell Lichtenstein and blending comedy with horror, is a unique tale that combines sexual anxiety with body horror. The story revolves around Dawn, who grows up in the shadow of a nuclear power plant and discovers she has a unique bodily 'adaptation.' While the film explores themes of sexuality, temptation, and empowerment, its primary focus lies in Dawn's struggle to understand and control her unusual condition.
