But their evil leader had far more sinister intentions with the mouth-spraying ritual. The War Boys embraced the ritual as a necessary component of their value and salvation. It ensures their entrance into “the gates of Valhalla, shiny and chrome.”

Both Immortan Joe and the War Boys themselves describe it this way in the movie. This practice of lining their mouths with a silver substance is more of a religious ritual. Before they head into battle, they spray their teeth and lips with a silver-looking substance that looks like spray paint. The War Boys pledge allegiance to their master, willing to sacrifice their lives for him. In the context of Mad Max: Fury Road, hoards of shaved-headed men, often shirtless, serve as Immortan Joe’s army.
