SCREEN SECT: TEETH
(Mitchell Lichtenstein, 2007)
Under-rated, blackly comedic coming-of-age horror satire, in which the teenage spokesperson for a Christian abstinence group discovers that she has developed a very unsettling and deadly physical malformation. Extremely bad news for the boys at her school, too.
