Novocaine is out in cinemas now from Paramount Pictures.
This will be short.
If you’re some sort of masochist, this movie is for you.
This movie is for you if you like medical shows that feature bare bones in open flesh, whether they’re drama, comedy, or reality.
If you like riding rollercoasters up in front or way back with arms up in the air, this movie is for you.
Not for the faint of heart, and definitely not for ordinary viewing. This has been the most fun I’ve had since Anora.
Nathan Caine (Jack Quaid, fresh off the horror-comedy Companion) has a medical condition that bars him from feeling any pain. One ordinary day, this condition will help him become a hero.
Cute chemistry with love interest Sherry (Amber Midhunter of Prey) is amplified by a similarly cute soundtrack. Fil-Am Jacob Batalon plays a sidekick once again.
Some good parts include the bad guy resembling a certain eyeliner-Vice President, plus the hero gets to deface a swastika.


Novocaine is bone-breaking, teeth-shattering, not-for-the-squeamish fun! Hollywood, I want a sequel!
Novocaine, directed by Dan Berk and Robert Olsen, is R16 in Philippine cinemas now.
