Night Teeth, starring Jorge Lendeborg, Jr. (Bumblee, Spider-Man: Homecoming), is sitting comfortably in the top 5 trending shows and films on the streaming platform, so it seems that viewers are enjoying sinking their teeth (or should that be fangs?) into the film. But is it worth the watch? Find out more below…

What is Night Teeth about?

The synopsis for Night Teeth reads: "To earn some extra cash, quirky college student Benny moonlights as a chauffeur for one night. His task: drive two mysterious young women (Debby Ryan and Lucy Fry) around Los Angeles for a night of party hopping.

"Taken captive by his clients' charm, he soon learns that his passengers have their own plans for him – and an insatiable thirst for blood. As his night spins out of control, Benny is thrust into the middle of a clandestine war that pits rival tribes of vampires against the protectors of the human world, led by his brother (Raúl Castillo), who will stop at nothing to send them back into the shadows." Sounds gripping right?
