Goofs:
Incorrectly regarded as goofs: Dawn O'Keefe has brown eyes as a child in the first scene, but has blue eyes in the rest of the movie. However, 10 - 15% of Caucasian people experience some eye color change. It is not unlikely for a child's eye color to change from brown to blue.

Not sure what all the kvetching on this board is about….TEETH is gore-comedy at its best and it turns the misogynistic "vagina dentata" myth on its head. After its hilarious first act parodying evangelical sexual repression, scene after scene delivers with jaw-dropping "can't-believe-that's-happening" hysterical intensity.
Yes, it's campy, but it pays careful respect to its lead character. Jess Weixler shines as the young abstinence advocate who discovers her rare gift, receiving the much-deserved Jury Prize for Acting from the Sundance Film Festival. If you appreciate cult, camp, or horror with a feminist edge, this is for you!
