Poor Jeffrey's girlfriend has been chopped up by a lawnmower, but luckily he's saved some of her parts (including her head) in a special rejuvenation broth in his mad scientist lab. In this scene from Frankenhooker, Frank "Basket Case" Henenlotter's bloody fun riff on Frankenstein, Jeffrey needs inspiration. He's got to get female body parts to rebuild his girlfriend, and he's got to get them fast. So of course, he drills his brain to "relax" and get some ideas. Maybe next time you're struggling with homework or a big project, you should try this too! It's cheaper than Provigil. [Frankenhooker]

Truly one of the greatest films involving, well, anything.
one edition of the vhs version of this movie had an awesome case -- you'd push the button and the frankenhooker on the box would way "WANNADATE?"
i always thought it would be a great double-feature with "pi": the DRILL YOUR HEAD movie night.
@regis: I totally remember the push-botton case.
Yes to drill your head movie night . . . are there other self-drilling brain movies? It seems to be a weirdly common fantasy.
Oww... my head hurts just watching that...
I'm trying to remember what happens in From Beyond, did the pineal gland come out on it's own, or did he give it a lil help?
@bitgod: They expose themselves to some kind of ray that activates the pineal gland and makes it grow until it bursts out of their foreheads.
Homework???? haven't had to wory bout that stuff in YEEAARRSS...
remember that time when you tried to drill that hole in your head? Yea and it would have worked too if you hadn't tried to stop me
