Man With The Screaming Brain is written, directed by and stars Bruce Campbell, B-movie actor best known for the Evil Dead films and cult classic Bubba Ho-Tep.The plot of the film concerns an American drug company CEO who travels to Bulgaria for business concerns. Unfortunately a psycho scorned lover (played by Tamara Gorski) murders him. But do not fear! Crazy scientist Dr. Ivan Ivanovich Ivanov (played by an almost unrecognizable Stacy Keach) has just perfected an anti-organ rejection drug and uses it to replace the damaged part of the businessman's brain with the donor brain of a taxi driver. Of course, the cabbie's brain controls half his body resulting in slapstick physical comedy reminiscent of Steve Martin in his half-body possession film, All of Me.
The movie is silly and goofy with ridiculous characters and ridiculous situations. However, it doesn't take itself seriously at all so there is no reason why the viewer should either.
