The Thing with Two Heads

This week we’re watching the uncomfortable 1972 film, The Thing
with Two Heads, Heads? Steve Carlson joins Paul & Chris to
review this film labeled incorrectly as comedy, scifi and horror.
Spoiler alert: it should just be labeled
bad.


This film is produced by Samuel Z. Arkoff who Chris confuses
with Dr. Zarkov from Flash Gordon.

Steve shares that 7 time, Oscar winning make up artist, Rick
Baker was the man in the 2-headed gorilla costume.

Paul is reminded of Tropic Thunder when he hears the racist
doctor in the film say, “you people.”

They need a brain dead patient in the film. Too bad they
couldn’t break the 4th wall and choose one of us audience
members.

Rosie Grier gets his own death march disco.

One of the prisoners makes Chris think of his favorite
Dolemite character, the creeper.

We all agree the best line in the film, “Do you have two of
anything else?”

Paul, Chris and Steve recast the film for a remake. Will
Smith & Mark Walberg, Chris Rock & Phil Robertson, Jamie
Foxx & Jon Lovitz and a few others.

Scroll down the Wikipedia page and learn The Arkoff formula
for successful films.

Suggested films Critters and Planet of the Apes.



Thanks again to Steve for joining us!
