What the Physicians Mutual TV commercial - Dr. Acula is about.

Physicians Mutual TV commercial - Dr. Acula

Physicians Mutual TV spot titled as 'Dr. Acula' is a humorous commercial that features actor John Michael Higgins in the role of a dentist with a Gothic edge. The commercial starts with a slow zoom-in on an old, creepy mansion, with lightning flashes in the background. We then see Higgins, dressed in black as Dr. Acula, performing a dental procedure on his patient.

As he works, he hilariously asks his patient if he can turn into a bat or if he has a reflection in the mirror. The patient looks terrified and quickly shakes his head in response. Dr. Acula then states that he's not that kind of doctor and proceeds to give him a check-up, promising good health and a great smile.

The commercial pokes fun at the Gothic horror genre, playing on the idea of a dentist with a Transylvanian edge. But it also highlights the importance of regular health check-ups, including dental and oral care, which Physicians Mutual is committed to promoting.

The spot ends with a message to the viewers stating that Physicians Mutual provides insurance for dental care, health care, and more, promoting their services in a light-hearted way and aiming to entertain their audience.

Overall, the commercial is a clever and funny way to promote the importance of taking care of our health, while also showing off John Michael Higgins' comedic skills.

Physicians Mutual TV commercial - Dr. Acula produced for Physicians Mutual was first shown on television on March 12, 2019.
