'Man With Two Brains' Homage

Steve Martin must be a fan of Brain That Wouldnt Die. I love when his character goes out looking for bodies for the head he has found. Its a great parody of BTWD.

I was thinking "You know, this looks a lot like The Man With Two Brains". I wonder if it was intentional?

I would say part of the inspiration for the Man With Two Brains has to come from this. Has to.

IMDb trivia says that Steve Martin's film mainly spoofed 'Donovan's Brain' (1953). But that TBTWD was also an inspiration too.
