Rijndri Load of rubbish!!

ReaderKenka Let's be realistic.

Lollivan It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

Yash Wade Close shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.

T Y Terrifically horrible exploitation movie that involves sewing the head of a fugitive/perv, onto a giant retarded farm boy. What could go wrong with that idea?The production values are more obtuse than anything you'll ever see. True to the exploitation genre, whenever an answer has been supplied for why people don't act more sensibly, the film-makers just move on; no matter how weak the answer was. i.e. After you've been kidnapped by a perv-escapee and seen him killed, what could be more natural than rushing off to take a nap? In the course of about five minutes, 4 characters fall down and are out cold, just as the plot requires them to be. I love that two characters (after witnessing a dual-strangulation by a two headed freak) have nothing to say to each other as they quietly watch the perpetrator walk away. I love that the movie imagines that horny sociopaths lick their lips, bulge their eyes and laugh every time a woman comes into view. There is no actual "night" in this movies goofy conception of 'day for night' shooting. The movie is so unashamed of its teeming awfulness that it becomes sort of endearing. And finally, inept weirdo Bruce Dern is in a production suited to his talent. 'Incredible Two-Headed Transplant' will have you asking important questions like "What would I do if someone sewed a second head onto my body?" and "What night should I do my laundry this week?"

JoeytheBrit There's no doubting this is a very bad film by anyone's standards, but it isn't without some entertainment value. Bruce Dern – clearly on his uppers back in '71 – takes on the mad scientist role with such laid-back indifference to the part that his performance alone is worth the cost of the rental or purchase or ninety minutes of your life. Never will you see an actor so clearly embarrassed by the rubbish he has somehow found himself saddled with or trying so hard to appear invisible. Dern speaks each of his lines with a kind of preternatural calmness that leaves you wondering whether some underhand producer hasn't drugged him so that he believes he's floating through a dream. His character is assisted by Max (Berry Kroeger) who, quite frankly, is the creepiest thing in the film – like a strange uncle whose lap your mum warns you not to sit on when you're a kid… The plot follows the typical monster-movie template. Once again our monster is stitched together from people's body parts in a fortress-like laboratory to which access is denied to the good doctor's long-suffering wife (Pat Priest). But, unlike Frankenstein, this is no meditation on the dangers of man playing God, rather than a frank attempt to titillate undemanding teens. Of course, wifey can't resist having a peek in the lab and before you can say 'don't open the door!' she's opened the door and – well, I'm sure you can get the rest.The poor simpleton who has a maniacal killer's head grafted onto his neck (don't you hate it when that happens?) is something of a giant, and he's filmed from a low angle so that no money has to be spent on special effects. I'm sure Messrs Bloom and Cole must have been pretty close friends by the end of the shoot. Of course the killer quickly becomes the dominant partner and forces his neck-mate to embark on a killing spree. He lumbers around the countryside, chancing upon necking teenagers and wasted bikers who, for some reason, find it impossible to outrun him and, cackling wildly, summarily dispatches them for no apparent reason other than he's completely bonkers.The single moment of any worth in the film is the point at which director Anthony Lanza cuts away from the murder of the female biker, just as those brainless cackles are beginning to rise. It's a moment of restraint totally at odds with the rest of the movie.

mattymidura ...My 'personal favorite' of the '1970's era' B Movies. Moreover, you get; 'sex, drugs, violence, and twisted imagination' with a closing flavor of 'humanity' in one movie! And also, "every bit as good, compared to 'The Incredible Shrinking Man' from 1958" too! The 'latter' (Shrinking Man - staring Grant Williams) was very good (for the era), especially with respects to 'special effects' indeed. Same applies to 'Incredible Two Headed...." as presented.. But the 'brain-dead' will, I'm sure,.. disagree perhaps!.. ...Of course, and in retrospect, the movie may appear a bit ridicules.. Today's work (special effects in movies) is supported with a 'wealth of technology' that prejudices many, with respect to any appreciation to presentations of past.. Hence, these 'brutal reviews' to which are displayed 'here' (this publication) as well as 'other sites' that present such similar reviews accordingly, posted by users!.. Perhaps these 'negatives' are a "direct result of the 'drumming-down' of Americans (movie viewers, in these instances) via '100+ MILLION DOLLAR' box office productions, of the last 20 years!.."

Infofreak Call me demented but I loved this absolutely silly piece of 1970s Drive-In schlock! Director Anthony M. Lanza only made one other movie as far as I know, one I've been wanting to see for years, a 60s biker flick starring Dennis Hopper and Casey Kasem called 'The Glory Stompers'. Kasem returns in this one to play the concerned best friend of "mad" scientist Dr. Roger Girard played by cult favourite Bruce Dern (Kasem and Dern had previously played brothers in another 60s biker movie 'The Cycle Savages', a trash classic I highly recommend.) Dern, just like those scientists in 'Donovan's Brain', has his own lab in his home which he conducts his own private research, assisted by his crippled mentor Dr. Max ('Demon Seed'). Research, by the way, involving head transplants. So when a psychopath (Albert Cole) escapes on a rampage and kidnaps Dern's pretty blonde wife (Pat Priest of 'The Munsters'), it doesn't take long to figure out that the Doc is going to be operating on him soon. Especially when there is a handy mental defective (John Bloom, from 'The Hills Have Eyes 2') available (his caretaker's son). Now Bruce Dern is one of my favourite 1970s actors ('Bloody Mama', 'Silent Running', 'The King Of Marvin Gardens'), and I'd watch him in just about anything, but this must be the stupidest movie he has ever been involved in! Disinterested viewers who don't enjoy 60s and 70s exploitation and monster movies may find it just TOO stupid to get into, but I thought it was an absolute hoot, and loved every minute of it!
