Looking for Movie - Wierd Exploding Head Scene

[rationalOne]

Awhile back I saw this short scene in a collection of stuff someone had spliced together.

There was an older man in a house, dressed as a woman.

A girl throws a basketball(?!) at his head, which splatters against a wall.

The headless body stumbles along a few feet, and collapses into a chair.


That's what I rmember. It sounds like a sub-grade-B film but I'm curious what it is because it's so strange.

Wow, that was fast, thanks.

Deadly Friend (1986) (http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0090917/)

It seems like every other post is talking about that scene.

Now I've gotta see it.

That movie has to have the most retarded ending. I hope that wasn't Wes Craven's idea. :D

Craven didn't write it, plus it was based on a novel.

What's wrong with the end?

There's a last glimmer of hope as he tries to snatch her body again - who knows, maybe the experiment will work this time? - only for something decidedly improbable to happen.

If robots can't inexplicably materialise inside of dead girlfriends, is there any hope for the rest of us?

:confused:
