As somebody who had not heard any of this before, it became a curious phenomenon to sit and watch a film and slowly have the realities begin to click into place.

Amazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.

In THE THING WITH TWO HEADS, Ray Milland (X: THE MAN WITH THE X-RAY EYES, FROGS) is Maxwell Kirshner, the irascible, bigoted head of the Kirshner Transplant Foundation. Arthritis has destroyed Kirshner's body, and he's contracted terminal cancer, so he comes up w/ a brilliant, novel plan to escape his ancient, dying frame. Indeed, he decides to transplant his dome onto a physically healthier body. His animal trials have already gone quite well. WARNING: CONTAINS THE HIDEOUS, TWO-HEADED GO-RILLA RUNNING AMOK SEQUENCE! The question becomes, who would volunteer for such a procedure? Well, thanks to the penal system, a death-row convict is quickly supplied. Enter Jack Moss (Roosevelt "Rosey" Grier). Of course, Kirshner knows nothing about the body he is about to be grafted to. The surgery is performed. WARNING: CONTAINS THE NEARLY LIFELIKE, RUBBER KIRSHNER AND MOSS HEADS! Let the hilarity begin! A perfectly preposterous film that could only have been made in the 70's, it does have something to say about racism. It's schlock content is astronomical, and if it weren't for Milland and Grier, all would surely have been lost. They are magic together, in an Archie Bunker sewn onto George Jefferson sort of way. The movie devolves into a typical series of chase scenes. Well, typical for a two-headed man movie! Watch for the dirt bike rally! Also, for added fun, try to count the number of police cruisers that are destroyed! A credit to its sub-genre...

This is one of the funniest movies that I've ever seen. Everything about it is absolutely horrible. How they ever got anyone to appear in this things is amazing. The dialog is worth the price of rental or purchase. The car/motorcycle chase is so funny that I nearly choked watching it. Every car crash was filmed from multiple angles and those were edited in to look like different crashes. Ray Milland and Rosie Grier on the motorcycle is the funniest scene ever in a movie. The budget for this movie did not exist. The music soundtrack is classic 70's bad-movie-music. I can't believe this movie does not have a larger cult following. If you only see one really bad, entertaining movie the year make it "The Thing With Two Heads".

friends, i am caked in chafe as i scribe these words, having recently experienced the horror of 'the thing in two heads' a tale of science gone mad, it shows us what will happen when doctors meddle with our genetic make ups, resulting in a monster of biblical proportions - a monster with two heads, one of these heads is a bird like skull with plastic beak skilled at pecking; the other a slavering wolf like critter, with menacing red eyes and teeth that have been perfectly moulded for chewing flesh and bone and gristle. as you can imagine, seeing this thing on its quest for meat is bone chilling and unorthodox. Half way through this film a strange thing happened to me. I looked up at the picture of me as a small boy on the mantelpiece and that boy, so unutterly unscathed by the ravages of time, smiled back and then his head turned 360 degrees around and around spinning and spinning out of the frame and towards me until only his face filled my room and it started screaming and screaming and in the end I shattered the night with a hammer and crawled into a white space where a peacock lived, and it whispered "that day you soiled your pants ... it wasn't your fault, Travis." The peacock then opened its feathers and my face as a boy was on each of its feathers.

We've all seen movie parodies of various types. Most of them fall flat on their faces because of the clumsy handling of the humor. Parody works best when it's delivered in a dead serious fashion, as was done in this movie. Trust the audience to know your tongue was firmly wedged in your cheek when making the movie.Many things make this movie a glorious cheese-fest. The budget was low, the acting is stilted, the timing is sometimes painfully poor, the jokes are corny. My advice is rent or buy this movie and see it for yourself! The first half hour of the movie moves fairly slowly, but once the action is moved out of doors it's go-go-go! This movie is a real groaner in the best sense of the word.
