Even Lambs Have Teeth

Two young ladies sign up to work at an organic farm in New York for a month with the plan to do some shopping while there. Once they arrive two guys pickup them up where they are then drugged and taken to shipping containers placed in the woods one red and one blue. Each container has a bed and a lamp.

The reason they are there is revealed when customers start showing up. The girls eventually get away with revenge on their mind. Now the film starts.

The film zips along at a good speed with some elements from Thriller (1974) and a few others but the film is not bad. These chicks kick ass. At one point they are singing a song together as they drive a truck to the next revenge kill.

Some parts are violent but the director is not going for gross outs. Worth a watch.

Budget flick.

Lacking in any real plot.

Acting is poor, script is poor.

These revenge movies fail completely if you don't create characters you empathise with.

Not sure what the movies is trying to be, it avoids the gore so isn't a horror, no tension so not a thriller.

Typical movie on IMDb though, full of people rating it as if its a modern day classic.

Don't know what these fake reviews are meant to achieve.

Its a poor film and no fake reviews are going to hide that.

I saw this movie at its "world premiere" in Denver in October 2015. The cast and crew were on hand to talk about it before and after. This review is spoiler free because there is very little to spoil.

The film is a quick 80 min. So quick that it feels rushed, not much thought was put into the most crucial scenes. The actors said it took 3 weeks to shoot, 12 hours a day, but it felt more like they had banged it out in a few days. Things happen very suddenly and with very little weight or consequence. I'm guessing that's due to the very low budget. Most of the action occurs off-screen, something the crew claims to be intentional, but I suspect it was also the effect of limited funds and even more limited imagination, since there are plenty of low-budget films who managed way more creative solutions in the face of scarce financing.

There are, to be fair, a few really funny moments, but on the whole the entire script is too ludicrous to take even halfway seriously. If somebody invites you to see this film, bring a bottle of booze and settle in. You're in for a night of amateurish acting and terrible puns. These lambs may have teeth, but they're small and dull.

I found this on Amazon and it appeared to be promising which should have been my first clue that something was awry given that I discovered it on Amazon. As I said it started promising and the acting wasn't obviously awful and the movie low budget......at first. When things turn for the worse for the two protagonists of the movie it is like the film, the actors, the writers, everyone just gave up and the movie disintegrated into a -D list type of movie.

At no point in time did I feel like the girls were in any sort of danger. The movie attempted to show their abuse at the hands of their attackers but their lack of tears, grief and their fresh out the salon hairstyles did not give off an air of despair. A situation that would have anyone in pure panic has them seemingly detached and bored as they deliver their lines like they are doing a reading. Once they are on the path of their "revenge" the movie rushes along and loses any sense of logical semblance and because it is done so poorly you really just don't care.

4/10 and that is being extremely generous.

Katie (Tiera Skovbye) and her best friend, the promiscuous Sloane (Kirsten Prout), travel to perform philanthropic work in organic farming for a month and then go shopping in New York for a week. Katie 's mother is traveling on vacation to Cuba and her brother Jason (Michael Karl Richards), who is an FBI agent, will drive the girls to the farm. He asks Katie to contact him every day using a code and leaves the girls in a bus stop to the farm on the road. However they accept a ride to the farm from the amicable locals Jed (Garrett Black) and Lucas (Jameson Parker) in a bar. However they kidnap the two girls and leave them half-naked and chained to containers in the middle of nowhere. Then they bring bizarre clients and force Katie and Sloane to prostitute for them. Meanwhile Jason looks for Katie and Sloane since he received messages without the code and contact Sheriff Andrews (Craig March), who is also part of the criminal ring. When Katie and Sloane succeed to escape, they seek revenge against the gang.

"Even Lambs Have Teeth" is a shallow thriller that becomes a funny comedy. The slut Sloane is an annoying character with her promiscuous behavior. The edition is poor and the story has no depth for the serious situation. The abused girls sing while driving the pickup truck as if their suffering was a school prank. The crime spree does not have any consequences. Better off watching "I Spit on Your Grave" (1978) to see the feelings of an abused woman. My vote is five.

Title (Brazil): Not Available
