Head in a Pan

Here's a quick movie review over my not-long-enough break. The Brain That Wouldn't Die is as about as good as you think it is. Yeah, I went with the Mystery Science Theater 3000 episode again; they make these kind of movies more tolerable. So some crazy doctor accidentally beheads his girlfriend in a car wreck. He takes the head (ew) and puts it in a pan and hooks it up to, what MST3K called, neck juice. Guess it doesn't matter how she can live, but she just does. Who needs lungs anyway? She comes to, noticeably shorter, and the doc leaves to find a new body. She's also not too happy and plots her revenge by communicating with the doc's experiment (who looks like Sloth from The Goonies) and having him murder and burn down the house. Really that's it. MST3K throws in some good jokes as usual, most of them dealing with decapitation, gray matter, and the like. My favorite one so far. And if you're wondering (ha) I've seen Manos: The Hands of Fate, Hobgoblins, and Space Mutiny.
