Brian Yuzna returns! Yes, Senor Yuz-meister is back with the sequel to his D-t-V hit (the DENTIST... seriously, I wonder just how dull some of you are)! Corbin Bernsen returns as demented D.D.S. (Doctor of Dental Slaughter) Dr. Feinstone, who escape incarceration at the asylum (with a syringe he stitched into his leg!) and makes the run to the small town of Paradise, MI. Seems the doc used to work here, under the alias of "Dr. Larry Caine", and the townsfolk are more than happy to have good ol' "Dr. Caine" back. He starts dating Jamie: a bank teller who owns the cabin he's slaying at... oh wait, I meant STAYING at... heh heh. "Larry" gets anal about the local dentist's sub-par work, so he gives the guy wood (a 3 wood I believe) and knocks him down a set of stairs. Plagued by voices and hallucinations (which he tries to keep in check by slashing up his arm), "Dr. Caine" reluctantly takes up the reins of town dentist at the peoples' request... but can he keep himself from mutilating them? Nope (come on, where would the movie be if he didn't?!), in fact, his first victim is the dental nightmare (and H.O.P.E.L.E.S.S. role model): Clint Howard! It would've gone fine if Clint had kept his trap shut about recognizing the doc, but now he's got no chance of getting out alive... 'specially not with that big needle the doc put in his head. To damage the doc's mindset more so, he gets really jealous when Jamie's ex-boyfriend comes back to town, looking for a piece of Jamie's ass for old time's sake. Also, the Private I. hired by his toungeless ex-wifey and the paranoid fat chick in town who're trying to ruin him aren't helping him much either. The tubby X-Phile bitch finds out that the doc ain't from D.C., so he straps her into a chair and plays a game of "lie detector" with her (I loved that game as a child! Ah the memories of pulling the teeth of that old woman next door...) till Jamie's ex shows up and Dr. "Caine" gives him the business end of a claw hammer a couple times! With that out of the way, doc goes back to his game, only this time, instead of stabbing an exposed nerve, he goes straight to the tooth pullin' ("... pulling teeth is like... well... pulling teeth") when Beth lies! But, he soon tires of games and just slaughters her. Meanwhile, his tongueless has found him and has come looking for revenge! Well, till Jamie shows up and saves him... which she really regrets when she finds the bodies and the doc knocks her around (after saying they were like "corn beef and cabbage" haha). But Jamie fights back, nailing the doc (literally with a nail gun!). "Dr. Caine" stumbles downstairs (and through a group of well wishers throwing him a surprise party) before he gets in his car and drives away... doing his best Pinhead impression! Damn it, if Yuzna can keep up the pace like this, I wanna see a 3rd DENTIST movie! And I wanna see it soon!... maybe then the doc will be able to keep that damn cap in.

Sequels: None... yet!
