Episode 254 - The Man With Two Brains

Are you ready for another Lost VHS Classic, kids? Well you’re in luck, because today we’re gonna have a go at the 1982 Steve Martin/Carl Reiner comedy, The Man With Two Brains! What is The Man With Two Brains, you ask? Well, we’ve seen it and we still aren’t entirely sure. On the surface it is a send-up of 50’s B-movie horror/suspense tropes about a mad scientist, a gold-digging femme fatale, and a brain-swap machine. If you have no idea what any of that means, it’s cool. Just know this is another wacky romp from the team that brought you The Jerk! It’s Kathleen Turner’s follow up to her breakout role in Body Heat! It’s Merv Griffin as… Merv Griffin! And it’s 100% niche cinema, which is why you should listen!
