Dr. Giggles

Rating:
Summary: Actually, it's quite good!
Review: I've seen A LOT of these critical reviews here poking at this movie. But those reviewers don't know nothing about horror! "Dr. Giggles" is a very original low-budget 'B' movie that stars Larry Drake as the slightly twisted and insane wannabe medical doctor who just has a non-stop laughing habit! After escaping from an institute, the mad doctor finds refuge in a small town where he grew up as a child when his father was also a doctor. He returns to his old home, and in no time the doctor is out... OF HIS MIND! One by one patients (or victims in this case) fall into unwanted appointments that lead to pure bloodshed and mayhem! Bad acting, cheesy rock music, and laughable dialogue make up this scary frightfest. However, for gore buffs there's plenty of blood and gore to go around! It's really disturbing, but a very fun film that's worth at least one watch! (you'll want to come back for seconds later!) If you're looking for a horror flick that's both scary and funny at the same time, then this rare piece of gold is the one to own! I also recommend "The Dentist" which also carries some of the same similarities as this film, although a bit more terrifying! "Dr. Giggles" is sure to put a smile on your face!

Summary: Larry Drake Was Great For His Role!
Review: Larry Drake(Dr.Giggles) or Dr. Randell is a supposed-to-be psychotic doctor who escapes from a mental ward and gives payback to the families that has killed his father(also a maniac who was stoned to death because he chopped up his patients). Now Dr. Giggles is back to kill people with his crazy long, needle point thermometers and just weird sharp a long/large contraptions. This movie has some gore. This movie creeped me out when I was a little and It did now even though i rented it a few years later now that im 15 almost 16. Now I kinda laugh at it. The tools is what kinda freaked me out. You don't really see the death scenes or what the people look like after the horror is done to them really. You sure do though in The Dentist. I can't watch that movie without cringing this movie kinda felt like the Dentist. Larry Drake was a great Doctor in this with his sarcastic/mellow one liners like 'Doctor's know best'. When Larry gets shot with a gun. I kinda felt sorry for him cause of his whimpers/giggles. It was kinda sad. Though I liked the idea though that this one girl he finds that has heart problems he really wants to help her. And thats what I liked about the movie. His contraptions though when he's supposedly was suppose to die was wild on believe thank god he didn't really use them on the girl who's supposedly on the television hit show (Charmed). She uses them on him! It's a great classic movie my dad use to watch and I think it is one movie to own. Even though it's out of stock which sucks. They should re-release it again on DVD and VHS.

Summary: laugh-out-loud-funny
Review: Larry Drake(Overnight Delivery, Dark Man) plays a son of a man who inhearits his habits..which is killing people...he stalks Holly Marie Combs(Tv's Charmed) and her friends and kills them off one by one..giggling his way threw the murders. terrible acting and bad killings make this one washout..also starring Doug E. Doug(That Darn Cat, Eight Legged Freaks), Ricahrd Brooks(The Substitute and Wes Craven's Shocker), Cliff DeYoung(Suicide Kings and The Substitute) and the deceased but still everso great Glenn Quinn(Tv's Angel, Tv's Roseanne, Live Nude Girls, Shout, and Campfire Tales) Quinn pasted away tradgicly last year, he was one of the good ones I tell ya

Summary: The Doctor Is In...Sane!
Review: Larry Drake, the menace from "Darkman" is even more menacing as "Dr. Giggles." He is insane and really cuts up his victims. A real slice and dicer not for the squimish. Now has sort of a cult following, I would like to see a sequel. Fellow L.A. Law cast member Corbin Bernsen also was a mad doctor in those "Dentist" movies.

Some great theills and chills, and lottsa laffs!!! Have plenty of cola and popcorn, sit back and relax. The doctor will see you now...

Summary: DR. GOOFBALL=0 STARS
Review: Moer like a comedy hence the name,and rather boring story of a doctor that trys to be Freddy in one-liner department. See a real Horror movie,not a poorly done comedy

Rating:
Summary: Absolutely Hilarious...
Review: My favorite part was when the good Dr. was about to start operating on the girl from Charmed, and the cop came in and pointed the gun at him, and the Dr. just shouted at him "Have a heart," and then threw a heart at him. Great stuff. Check it out, if you dare.

Summary: One of Holly's best
Review: This movie went beyond my expectations. It shows what a great actress Holly Marie Combs is. Also, it makes a great addition to any horror collection. This movie is a good slasher flick that will liven up a boring night.

Summary: Very Good Original Horror....
Review: This was a vey good original horror. Yet very under-rated film. Orignial horror goofs and gags. This is a good movie to see if your a horror fan. Larry Drake gives a good performance as a crazed doctor.
