  • This is a comment not a review, but doesn't the hook violate WP:DYKFICTION? I do think the hook is interesting, but unfortunately it's focused on a plot point without having a real-world connection. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 02:18, 25 April 2024 (UTC)
The article is otherwise rather light on other potential hook facts, but this might work as an alternative:
ALT1 ... that the soundtrack to the 2024 musical Teeth was described as ranging from Christian rock to "an ancient feminine Tori Amos meets Stravinsky pagan ritual music"?

@Narutolovehinata5: Good point – I didn't think about that. I like your alt suggestion though! Spaghettifier (talk) 19:03, 28 April 2024 (UTC)
Broadway World is listed at WP:RSP in red, meaning it can't be used. If it was added to the article, ALT2 ... that Teeth, a depiction of a young woman's discovery that she has teeth in her vagina, has been described as having a "lethal bite" by The New York Times? could work.--Launchballer 09:07, 6 May 2024 (UTC)
ALT3: ... that The New York Times described "Teeth" as having a "lethal bite"?--Launchballer 16:14, 6 May 2024 (UTC)
ALT3 sounds good! @Spaghettifier: Are you okay with it? Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 23:40, 6 May 2024 (UTC)
Thanks for the suggestion @Launchballer:! Replaced the BroadwayWorld source and added the lethal bite description. I'm thinking one tweak so we still get a sense of what the show is:
ALT4: ... that The New York Times called Teeth a "feminist awakening with a lethal bite"? Spaghettifier (talk) 23:49, 6 May 2024 (UTC)
I guess, I was going for the quirky angle, but ALT4 checks out. Full review needed.--Launchballer 06:47, 7 May 2024 (UTC)
