Man with the Screaming Brain left me screaming for it to end . . .

I will start off by saying that usually, I am a huge Bruce Campbell fan. Unfortunately, this film left way too much to be desired. It was like it was almost there for me a few times, but kept just missing the mark somehow.

I will give you a brief synopsis of the film but I will have to be honest, I couldn't even get myself to finish watching it. So here goes, William Cole (Bruce Campbell) is the head of a multi-million dollar pharmaceutical company who is looking to diversify by funding a subway station in the newly capitalized Bulgaria. He brings his wife Jackie (Antoinette Byron) along on the trip and it is quite obvious from the get-go that they are just not getting along.

They are picked up at the airport by taxi driver Yegor (Vladimir Kolev) who has the perfect combination of both street smarts and attitude. That is at least for the first half of the movie or so until he is offed by jilted lover, Tatoya (Tamara Gorski). It seems Tatoya has a thing for Cole also and she seems to kill every man who does not share her obsession with them.

So now it is Dr. Ivan Ivanov's (Stacy Keach) big chance to show Cole his new anti-rejection wonder drug which allows him to fuse together two brains to become one. Along with his trusty assistant Pavel (Ted Raimi), Ivanov fuses the brains of Yegor and Cole and what should be the entertaining and zany wackiness of the film commences. Unfortunately, it just didn't work for me. It is too bad because taking the characters one by one, I quite enjoyed them. They were funny and over the top - exactly why I usually love Campbell. But as I said, it just missed for me somehow.
