Bruce Campbell writes, stars and directs this affectionate nod to cheesy science-fiction of yesteryear. A-hole businessman Campbell is at war with himself after he gets half his brain spliced with that of a Russian cab driver's. There’s also the little matter of his unfaithful wife who's been transplanted into the body of a robot and the Gypsy woman who comes between them all. Channels some Army of Darkness self-abusive slapstick, almost as a service to the fans. Doesn’t get as much mileage out of the idea of dissociation as you would think, but it’s all meant to be harmless and goofy to begin with. Ted Raimi is a hoot. Shot in Bulgaria, so you get an idea of how cheap this movie is.
