Description:
A scientist is driving around with his gorgeous girlfriend and everything's hunky-dory until he wrecks the car and her head goes flying off. Not to be discouraged, he wraps the decapitated noggin in his jacket and scurries off to his lab, where he keeps the poor woman's head alive in a developing tray with some coils and tubes running in and out of it. With his girlfriend's still-conscious cabeza back at the lab, the good doctor drives around shopping for bodies, ogling women who might make likely candidates for reattaching the head. Finally he finds a model with a gorgeous bod (and leopard print bikini), but a scarred fac
A scientist is driving around with his gorgeous girlfriend and everything's hunky-dory until he wrecks the car and her head goes flying off. Not to be discouraged, he wraps the decapitated noggin in his jacket and scurries off to his lab, where he keeps the poor woman's head alive in a developing tray with some coils and tubes running in and out of it. With his girlfriend's still-conscious cabeza back at the lab, the good doctor drives around shopping for bodies, ogling women who might make likely candidates for reattaching the head. Finally he finds a model with a gorgeous bod (and leopard print bikini), but a scarred face. He convinces the young woman that he can fix her looks with plastic surgery and convinces her to go back to the lab. Meanwhile, his girlfriend-head (silenced by a strip of duct tape over her mouth) has developed telepathy and a nasty grudge. This movie used to regularly leave late-night TV audiences aghast and scare the bejabbers out of the young'uns. Decades later, it's an indispensable trash classic, complete with a catfight, a pinhead monster, a deformed assistant, and even a spatter of gore. Make no mistake; this incredible, sleazy gem is a must-see for any self-respecting fans of camp cinema. They just don't come any better, and they definitely don't make 'em like that anymore. --Jerry Renshaw
THE BRAIN THAT WOULDN'T DIE "Can Your Horror Match Mine?" UNCUT! This lurid, low-budget shocker is a true giant among cult movies, in which Jan Compton (Virginia Leith) literally loses her head in a fiery car crash, and awakens as a monstrosity. Herb (aka Jason) Evers is Jan's fiancé, transplant specialist Bill Cortner, who is driven to keep the head alive at any cost, until he can find a suitably voluptuous replacement body. Locked in a closet by Bill and his assistant, Kurt (Leslie Daniels), is yet another monster, a nightmarish patchwork of previous mistakes that becomes Jan's ally in bloody revenge. Producer Rex Carlton (Nightmare in Wax, Blood of Dracula's Castle) and director Joseph Green wrote the original story for this film, also known as The Head That Wouldn't Die. Approximately 83 minutes Black and White
