Review Summaries
"THE THING WITH TWO HEADS is a movie directed by Lee Frost in 1972. Dr. Kirshner is a famous doctor specialized in the transplantation of vital organs. Suffering from a terminal disease, he wants his genius to survive by transplanting his head onto another man's body. While Kirshner is sinking into coma, his partner is desperately looking for a body but the only one available is the body of a black man in the death row. The operation succeeds but Jack Moss, the owner of the body, is not so happy with his second head since he's accepted to be operated only in order to gain some time to prove his innocence. Soon both heads try to take control of Jack Moss's body."
Daniel Staebler, Resident Scholar
