    The Thing with Two Heads

    ★★★½

    This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.

    Often hilarious sci-fi action movie that's pretty much all goofy, and I love it for that. Brilliant but bigoted surgeon Ray Milland is dying and has come up with a plan to have his "brilliant" head transplanted to donor body. At first, he and his crew of doctors and nurses have successfully transplanted the head of a gorilla onto another gorilla. Due to ineptness (which officials in this flick are truly tops at!), Mr. Two Noggin Ape escapes and is…

    Some of my favorite Stooges shorts are ones where they start in one place with a story, then that part is totally abandoned in the second half!

An ambitious scientist, Henry Frankenstein (Colin Clive), along with his hunchback assistant Fritz (Dwight Frye) rob from graves, steal body parts, and everything imaginable until they have stitched together the huge body of a "human" that Frankenstein intends to bring to life. This…

    Here it is. After seeing this a zillion times, I need to review this gem. It's only one of the very best movies EVER! Kurt Russell is the swaggering blowhard, bumbling but heroic truck driver, Jack Burton, who gives out advice from the CB in his semi-truck The Pork Chop Express, and that's between adventures. The adventure we see takes place in, of course, Little China in San Francisco, where Jack helps his best friend Wang Chi (Dennis Dun) try…
