Trivia
That same day, when they are going to shoot the "digging scene" actor Clint Howard was not anymore on location, the production could not afford to hire him for one day again so they decided to only shoot some shoes what must look like Clint Howard's body. See more »Goofs
When Dr. Feinstone asks Robbie if he could be quiet for a while you see clearly the shadow of the camera. See more »Alternate Versions
The 1999 UK video was cut by 51 seconds by the BBFC "to remove sadistic details". Deletions were made to close-ups of bloody detail and degrading/sadistic dialogue during the "Truth or Tooth" torture scene. The 2001 DVD featured the same cut print. See more »Soundtracks

...but not worse than the first Dentist. Actually, I think this sequel is even slightly better than the original (a rare thing to happen in the horror genre). Sure, there's nothing new about this film, but as I already told you: it's not worse than the first.
Dr. Feinstone (Corbin Bernsen) has escaped a mental hospital and continues his work in a small town called 'Paradise' after getting rid of the local dentist. But soon his itchy drill finger starts to mutilate his patients in another series of disgustingly elaborate drill & kill scenes.
Again, Corbin Bernsen does an excellent job as the psycho-dentist. And again, this film delivers very weird entertainment and gore galore. The ending leaves the possibility of another sequel.
If you have a slightly sick sense of humor you might like it, especially if you liked the first Dentist.
My rating: 4/10
