"Even Lambs Have Teeth" is the latest in the never-ending genre of revenge films. It tells a story about two best friends (one who just needs to strap a mattress on her back for convenience) who have decided to work in "nature" at some sort of camp in order to earn money to go shopping in NYC. As it usually turns out, there's something in them thar' woods, and all seems lost.
Face it guys, we've seen this same story about a billion times--only done way better. "Last House on the Left," "Avenged," "I Spit on Your Grave," are just a few that have taken revenge to another level, which is something "Lambs" tried but just couldn't do. Why? A very ineffective and simply unbelievable script. All I could do was snicker when I saw two girls (covered in blood) walk through stores in a very small town without being noticed. The local preacher can be tied to the back of a pickup truck and drug through town--then sat afire-- without being noticed. There are a few (and I mean few) moments of "comedy," but not enough to put a dent in this big old mess.
Rated "R" for some grisly violence, brief nudity, and rape.
