You may (or may not) be interested in a movie on Netflix called "Teeth". Basically, it's about a virtuous teenager who is sexually assaulted, but in the process, discovers she has a genetic mutation called "Vagina Dentata" (or toothed vagina), which she uses to some effect against villainous males.

I'd call it a black comedy. But it's well written and fairly well acted. FYI there is no such medical condition in reality, but the concept figures largely in mythology and psychology (wrt castration anxiety in males).

Interestingly, Camille Paglia was mentioned in the credits.
