come anticipate TEETH with me!

ew no no no

Haha awesome.

"Oddly, the guys I know are morbidly curious to see it and the girls I know are like "ew no no no." Can anyone explain this dynamic?"

Most horror fans are guys. Not exactly a mystery.

i was bugging out about this on another thread! director's a gay dude, btw

Basically way more men than women have seen I Spit On Your Grave whatever the "message" so why should a film about vagina dentata be any different.

"director's a gay dude, btw"

Best punchline ever!

this movie appeals to the wide spectrum of pervertsdudes

I'm wondering if anybody will actually bother to consider the implications of a gay man making a film where vaginas are literally potentially deadly. :/

Also, the other poster for this is a total rip-off of the Slither poster. and the tagline is cringeworthy ("every rose has its thorns"). will probably still see it.

oh also pullquote comparing it to fatal attraction: fuck you.

"Also, the other poster for this is a total rip-off of the Slither poster."

Uh you don't think the poster above is a total rip off of Knocked Up?

"I'm wondering if anybody will actually bother to consider the implications of a gay man making a film where vaginas are literally potentially deadly. :/"

Uh the implications? Like that he really seriously thinks pussies have teeth?

Didn't see the Knocked Up poster in question?

and, I dunno, don't you think it could possibly be a little misogynist?

Haha no I don't. Not sure why if it was it would be less misogynist if it had been directed by a straight guy anyway!

I just mean a lot of armchair intellectuals could get caught up in some big discussion about "IS HE AFRAID OF VAGINAS? GAY CONSPIRACY AGAINST WOMEN???" silly stuff, but maybe the producers can use that to their advantage. /cynic

no, it'd still be misogynist.

L.Ouch.L.

(xpost)^^^armchair intellectual

It means no worries for the rest of your days

It's our problem-free philosophy

Vagina Dentata!

well duh, xpost.

maybe it's just pro-blowjob. :p

guys really this is just a rip-off of KILLER CONDOM, or maybe somewhat.

http://www.clubdesmonstres.com/killercondom.jpg

plot synopsis:

Set in the seedy parts of New York City, Killer Condom follows gay detective Luigi Mackeroni (Samel), who has been hired to investigate a series of bizarre attacks at the Hotel Quickie in which their male guests have all had their penises mysteriously bitten off. While at the crime scene, he enlists the services of a beautiful young gigolo named Bill and invites him up to the crime room. Before the two men engage in intercourse, a carnivorous, living condom interrupts them and bites Mackeroni's testicle off.
Now on a personal vendetta, Mackeroni begins his lone quests to not only bring a stop to the rash of condom attacks, but also face his true feelings towards Bill the gigolo. Soon, the detective learns that the pernicious prophylactics are actually genetically-engineered creatures, part of a vast conspiracy of conservatives bent on ridding the world of sexual deviants.

distributed by Troma films, no surprise.

oh my god

and, I dunno, don't you think it could possibly be a little misogynist?

look it's from a government website, don't blame me

Gay man in gynophobe non-shocker.

Every rose has its thorns.

this is nothing more that a remake of the 70's film "Chatterbox", with ahem, teeth...

did anyone see this

nah

yes - it was a really good horror movie. if you like horror movies (they are pretty much the only kinda movies I give a shit about other than documentaries) then you will probably dig this, unless you have a very high gore demand - this is sparingly gory. if horror movies don't do anything for you generally this isn't probably gonna be yr exceptional-case deal. but it was well-acted, nicely scripted, the twists are all nicely timed...I loved pretty much every minute of this movie.

I'm pretty sure there was another thread where we talked about this.

roxy linked to another one upthread

the premise of this movie has been in existence in tons of primeval culture myths, weird.

uh i think that's kind of the point!

someone at feministing thought it was awesome

the movie addresses those very primeval myths directly, that was the one part where I was like "yeah ok we know"

srsly tho if you like horror movies in the Evil Dead 2/smart-funny mode this shit is essential

j0hn otm all over the damn thread, this was entertaining as hell. i sat in the front row even!

on opening night no less!
