Surreal madcap fun

A truly surreal amazingly funny work. I knew the Elfman clan was unhinged, but this movie just blew me away. The concept of three little shrunken heads fighting crime was just way too much for me.

If you laugh at really bizarre movies, or just really like "Evil Dead" and "Brain Dead", this is definitely a must see.

The most weird and idiotic movie EVER!!!

This movie is the lamest movie of all time! I saw this movie on the sci-fi channel with some friends. We were all like, "Ok", what is the point of this movie? It was not confusing, but idiotic. If you like this movie, I have nothing to say, but if you haven't seen it, and come across it on TV, SWITCH the channel QUICKLY!!!!!!!!!!

Shrunken Heads is Great!!

I loved this dark, funny, strange little film. The plot was brilliant, and held me and my friends through all the twists and turns. We laughed our heads off at all the hilarious, dead panned lines of Lt. Col. Aristide Pierre Lafite Sumatra, of the Ton Ton Macoute - the friendly neighborhood news vender and witch doctor. This was a real treat!

what a waste of time...

This has to be one of the most boring poorly made films i have ever seen. From the outset it is total crap, the acting is terrible, the story line is dire. The only good thing i can say about this film is ray from alex mac who is one of the 'shrunken heads' it made me giggle seeing him mooching about. Use your time more wisley, watch anal vision 6 or somet rather than this rubbish.

Cheesy, Ridiculous, Stupid.....but strangely compelling....

Okay. Yes. The movie is cheesy. The effects are Just Plain Awful.

And yes. The plot (what little there is) is, frankly, ridiculous.

And I agree. The developmnet of the nearly non-existent plot is stupid and quite undirected.

Maybe the only reason I find this piece of unremitting schlock compelling was Rebecca Herbst. Hey! If she'll open her shirt for a nasty little shrunken head, there may be hope that, one day, a troll like me will get similar treatment!

Trivia
Meg Foster has cited Big Moe as one of the best characters she has ever played.

Goofs
When Sally is walking as Vinnie and the Vipers approach her in their station-wagon, she's walking on the right side of their car. When Mr. Sumatra gets her attention, she's suddenly on their left side. There wasn't enough time for her to cross the street when Vinnie was stopped by a few pedestrians crossing the street.

Quotes
Mr. Sumatra: Yes, Freddy, cops in Haiti are extremely scary.

Crazy credits
After the credits, Mitzi is seen talking to a big woman. She turns and screams when she sees Big Moe and Vinnie cleaning up garbage after being turned into zombies.

Alternate versions
A "3D" DVD of the film, released by Razor Digital in 2007, features a TV Print of the film featuring two puppets providing MST3K-style commentary towards the film.
