Millions of people have dentophobia (fear of dentists), and it’s understandable between the pain, the shots, and the drilling. One movie franchise that capitalizes on those fears to scare audiences is The Dentist (1996). Lionsgate is gearing up to release The Dentist Collection, which includes both the original movie and its 1998 sequel as a set for the first time on Bu-ray and Digital.
Featuring two-time Primetime Emmy Award® nominee Corbin Bernsen (1988 and 1987, TV’s “L.A. Law,” Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, Major League, Major League II), this horror collection follows dentist Dr. Feinstone who has everything, including a beautiful wife and a successful career in dentistry. That is until he discovers his wife cheating on him. After going insane, he enacts cruel dental torture on his patients.”
“Where there’s a drill, there’s a way. Corbin Bernsen stars as homicidal dentist Dr. Alan Feinstone in these two horror favorites, available for the first time on Blu-ray™. In The Dentist, Beverly Hills dentist Dr. Feinstone seems to have the perfect, ordered life — until the discovery of his wife’s affair with the pool boy sends him off the deep end, unlocking the killer inside. The Dentist 2 finds the evil doctor in a maximum-security mental hospital…but not for long, as he escapes to a small town and turns his attention to a new love interest and new victims.”
