Join Michael and Tim as we celebrate reanimated heads and the men who love them. We present a double feature of The Brain That Wouldn’t Die and Frankenhooker!
The Brain That Wouldn’t Die (1962)
Dr. Bill Cortner and his fiancée, Jan Compton, are driving to his lab when they get into a horrible car accident. Compton is decapitated. But Cortner is not fazed by this seemingly insurmountable hurdle. His expertise is in transplants, and he is excited to perform the first head transplant. Keeping Compton’s head alive in his lab, Cortner plans the groundbreaking yet unorthodox surgery. First, however, he needs a body.

Frankenhooker (1990)

Preshow begins at 6:30. Suggested donation $5 per movie.
What comes after graduation? Many College Experience students, in fact most, choose to remain in Albany. They maintain friendships with their fellow and former graduates, form romantic partnerships, and some get married.
