Mr. Giggles loses his mind and is accused of causing the death of some of his patients; framed by his fellow citizens, he is convicted. Some years later, in the same city, the deaths start again, coincidentally, a new doctor has just arrived who turns out to be the son of the deceased Dr. Giggles. Poor example of cheap American horror, made for the home video market and occasionally broadcast by private networks, it's not worth two hours of your time. We Italians are better at making horror films with limited budgets, masters in the art of making do (see Fulci).
