Horror films, and especially exploitation pictures, have always been about selling the sizzle as opposed to the Steak.
David Friedman, one of the high kings of exploitation films, noted that exploitation films by nature were always better in the trailer then in the actual film. The taglines and trailers are used to entice you into see these films. And most times, a film won’t live up to all the hype. Believe me, there …

Let’s go back, fans of obscure and bad films, to the late eighties. Oh, this film says it was released in 1991, but there’s no doubt, Shock ‘Em Dead is a film from the late eighties.

Exploitation films walk a fine line between complete sadistic trash to amazing works of artistic imagery. Directors already know that they have crossed the line in terms of what is appropriate or socially acceptable for everyday film goers, and it’s true, most films, such as I Spit on Your Grave and Last House on the Left, do come across as a bit overbearing in terms of rape, torture, and murder, but …

If the premise of this film doesn’t make you giggle just a little, then you probably don’t have a soul. Dimension Extreme, a small sub-division of Dimension films now specializes in the genre of “crazy” horror. Mainly the subject matter is incredibly bizarre and intended specifically for “cult” loving audiences, hence, “Teeth”, the story of a girl who has chompers in her lady business.
Our “fairy tale” takes place in a …
