The Thing With Two Heads

Dr. Maxwell Kirshner (Ray Milland) has not much longer to live and wants to transplant his still living head from his lifeless body and onto a donor so that he may continue living and continue working as the world's most successful surgeon. On death row, convicts are told that donating their bodies to science will save them from the electric chair. One convict is led to the chair - an African-American - and decides to volunteer for the science experiment because he is innocent of the crime he was supposed to commit.
