4/5
"Lichtenstein takes the myth of vagina dentata and gives it a kitsch horror/comedy makeover, to surprisingly smart and sassy effect."
Eye for Film
Amber Wilkinson
"a witty satire that explores the state of the (female) body politic, spread-eagled between the puritanical and the priapic in a culturally confused America."
Little White Lies
Anton Bitel
7/10
"Much like Dawn's ill-fated gyno visit, a peek beneath the folds of this clever and surprisingly amusing little horror comedy holds a few surprises for curious gay viewers."

Brian Juergens
2.5/5
"You'll have to forgive the pun, but it simply lacks bite."

C
"Writer/director Mitchell Lichtenstein tosses in thematic elements of incest and pedophilia as so much narrative hamburger helper, but by then the movie has already worn out its welcome."

2/4
"Though good for a few laughs, the one-note
Teeth
is just another trite rape-revenge fantasy."
Slant Magazine
Ed Gonzalez
B
"A spoof of B-movie monster flicks, a satire of modern-day puritan ethics, and a tongue-in-cheek female-empowerment story."

3/4
"A well crafted clashing of sub-genres and themes that works to its advantage, making it an instant cult classic..."
Cinema Crazed
Felix Vasquez Jr.
2/4
"The film's mix of cheap gags, macabre coming-of-age story, social satire and Cronenbergian body horror is apparently meant to gel into black comedy, but it never quite does."
TV Guide's Movie Guide
Maitland McDonagh
2/5
"Lichtenstein has a lot of ambitious ideas for his debut film but lacks the skills to pull any of them off"

B
"Seriously dude, no means no."
Flipside Movie Emporium
Rob Vaux
4.5/5
"I'm of the opinion that audacity is something to be admired in today's cinematic world, and
Teeth
has audacity to spare."
Cinematical
Scott Weinberg
"Writer-director Mitchell Lichtenstein's low-budget horror film is...more satirical than scary...however, he ultimately delivers the gory goods."
