quite good

Postby Xenorama on September 1st, 2005, 1:13 pm

it's a decent movie, very interesting and the best of the "two headed" movies out there, although not as funny as the Rosie Greer one.

you can get a decent DVD of it from Alpha, and TCM just aired it, although they had a line missing from the end of the movie. i do really like this, and the eye on the shoulder scene was unique enough for Sam Raimi to "borrow" for the Evil Dead movie.

His 2-headedness...

Postby Lunkenstein on September 1st, 2005, 7:58 pm

I love THE MANSTER, and recently watched the Alpha DVD again during vacation. It was on UHF in the Philly area many times in the '60s. I'll have to capture and post some pics from this classic.

There are many cool scenes - my favorites of course are the "eye" and "split" sequences. The scene in the Buddhist temple is also extremely well done and suspenseful.

Peter Dyneley is very good as Larry. He makes you feel for his character, despite everything he's doing. Shortly before the "eye" moment, he kicks his boss and the psychiatrist out of his room screaming, "LEAVE ME ALOOOONE!!!!!!!!!". Don't think I'd ever heard anyone yell those words like that before, when seeing this as a kid.

Dr. Suzuki's lab is also neat to see. Odd equipment, weird growths and his pitiful wife behind bars. His brother Kenji's return is an early highlight, and the chase music toward the end is way cool.

2-headed wonders

Postby Preston on September 3rd, 2005, 10:11 pm

Continuing along the lines of 2-headed wonders, does anybody else remember that episode from the TV-series MONSTERS which had a human body with two heads? Note that I am NOT referring to the sitcom series THE MUNSTERS but rather to an ANTHOLOGY series called MONSTERS. As an anthology series, each episode had of course a different stand-alone story. The one I refer to could be described as SIAMESE TWINS in that it was NOT horrifying but appeared as more of a comedy, what with the Conjoined Twins constantly bickering with each other. That's what I recall. Maybe somebody else can recall the episode's title as well as provide a brief synopsis.

I only saw one or two episodes of MONSTERS. It looked like a fun show, but for some reason, I never made it a viewing habit. Probably due to so much programming on cable and not enough time.
