a scientist and his girl friend be out drive when his speeding cause a car crash . he escape unharmed but she be decapitate . he save her head and bring it to his house and keep it alive ( . ) . he then proceed to search out model and stripper for the perfect body for the head . his crippled assistant watch over the head which start talk and have a telepathic ( or telepathetic ) link to a deform monster kept in the closet . a you can see and this be pretty stupid stuff and but i have a certain fondness for it . when i grow up in the late 1970s and a local tv station show this movie about 20 time each year ( no exaggeration ) . they show it always on saturday afternoon tv uncut . see this on tv back then be great . explicit blood and gore along with a gruesome monster and sleazy sexploitation who care if it be good . see it now i realize how lousy this really be . the acting be perfectly wretched and the production value be nonexistent and the script be pretty dumb and ( aside from the still pretty disgust gore ) this be dull stuff . there also a mild cat fight between two woman and the admittedly great monster at the end . also add in an end which leave ton of loose end . on one hand this be an interesting example of a 1960s exploitation film . on the other it utter trash . either way and it not a good movie but be a must see ( for one time only ) for horror and gore fan . also the head laugh be pretty creepy . note the end credit which get the title wrong ( call it the head that wouldn not die ) .
