Mike Mignola’s The Amazing Screw on Head is coming to Sci-Fi Channel. Featuring the voices of Paul Giamatti, Molly Shanon, and Davis Hyde-pierce.
You can watch the first entire episode on-line
In this hilarious send-up of Lovecraftian horror and steampunk adventure, President Abraham Lincoln’s top spy is a bodyless head known only as Screw-On Head.
When arch-fiend Emperor Zombie steals an artifact that will enable him to threaten all life on Earth, the task of stopping him is assigned to Screw-on Head. Fortunately, Screw-On Head is not alone on this perilous quest. He is aided by his multitalented manservant, Mr. Groin, and by his talking canine cohort, Mr. Dog.
Can this unorthodox trio stop Emperor Zombie in time? Does Screw-On Head have a body awesome enough to stop the horrors that have been unleashed? Where can we get a talking dog?
All these questions (O.K., maybe not that last one) will be answered when you watch the thrilling tale of The Amazing Screw-On Head!
This seems like a fresh breath of air compared to most of what I have seen on Adult Swim the last few seasons (with the exception of the Ventura Bros.) It’s 100% Mike Mignola’s art and style come to life. I am looking forward to seeing more.
