Does The Thirteenth Warrior have any rolling heads?

I'm pretty impressed this many movies have been named so far

I can think of nothing that meet this requirement
Kubrick, Nolan, Tarantino, Wan, Iñárritu, Scorsese, Chaplin, Abrams, Wes Anderson, Gilliam, Kurosawa, Villeneuve - the elite



I believe in the international communist conspiracy to sap and impurify all of our precious bodily fluids.

Something that's been gnawing at me after this thread got rolling, was that a lot of these were just "severed heads", not "in a jar"....

Not that I had that big of a problem with that, I just felt I should clarify my mention of Frankenhooker; I mentioned that one because of the brain in the fish tank, not because of the severed head in the freezer............

Well, the main thing is that the heads/brain are alive or at least do something after being separated from the rest of the body.

Not sure what number we're at, but Conan beheading Thulsa Doom.

That head doesn't seem to do very much, after it is hacked off. We really need living/resuscitated heads/brains. If we simply count beheadings, we'd be at 500 in an afternoon.

You may not want to count this as it doesn't survive for long, but I thought I'd give it a mention and see.

86. Severence. One of the arms dealers gets his head cut off and smiles when he realises he's just proved himself right in an earlier argument that after decapitation the head can survive for a short while.
