need the name of a movie

[uncletfunk]

       Does anyone know the name of the movie about a stand up comic who grows a third arm out of his back and his wacky accordian playing garbageman friend? I can't remember much about the movie but the fact that it's about a comedian with a third arm is, I hope, enough.
       Any help is appreciated, thanks.

That would be "The Dark Backward" from 1991.

Lol, I remember another movie featuring a man with an arm growing from his back (or head), but it wasn't this, I actually think my man in question was some kind of super-villain or something.

Mel Gibson plays a detective who's had a third arm amputated in "Million Dollar Hotel" --
He acts like the bad bad guy in this, who's totally in control, so you may think him a "supervillian", as the movie has a cartoony/dreamy quality to it --
soundtrack by Bono and Eno --
See it --
