The Man with Two Brains (1983)

In the illustrious world of neurosurgery, Dr. Michael Hfuhruhurr reigns supreme, a narcissistic genius who has revolutionized the field with his groundbreaking cranial screw-top brain entry technique. However, behind his clinical brilliance lies a heart heavy with grief for his late wife, Rebecca. His personal turmoil meets a shocking twist of fate when he unintentionally hits the tantalizingly devious Dolores Benedict with his car, forcing him to save her life with his own surgical technique. As Dolores recovers, she wraps the esteemed doctor around her little finger, leading him down the aisle despite her ulterior motives. Underneath her seductive veneer, Dolores harbors a lust for wealth, while denying her husband the intimacy he craves. The newlyweds' voyage to Vienna for a medical conference becomes a turning point as Dr. Hfuhruhurr's disillusionment culminates in a decision to divorce Dolores. While in Vienna, Dr. Hfuhruhurr's life takes another bizarre turn as he meets the enigmatic Dr. Alfred Necessiter, a fellow neuroscientist with a morbid collection of living brains, victims of the infamous Elevator Killer. Among these brains, Dr. Hfuhruhurr discovers an unexpected connection with one: Anne Uumellmahaye's. A telepathic bond forms between them, leading to an odd yet profound love. Just as Dr. Hfuhruhurr learns of Dolores' true motives, she retaliates by threatening Anne's existence, forcing the doctor into a race against time to save his newfound love. This darkly comedic tale of love, betrayal, and brain science paints an eccentric picture of a man caught between his devotion to his craft, his yearning for love, and an unexpected bond with a disembodied brain.
