Shrunken Heads is a 1994 American independent comedy horror film directed by Richard Elfman and written by Matthew Bright.

New Yorkers Tommy Larson and Bill Turner are best friends who spend their time reading comic books which they buy from Mr. Sumatra's newspaper stand.

[2] J. R. Taylor of Entertainment Weekly rated it B and wrote, "Elfman's fun-loving touches manage to get this new series up and running with twisted enthusiasm".

[3] Writing in The Zombie Movie Encyclopedia, academic Peter Dendle said that the characters "lovingly exaggerate every preposterous line with relish, yielding some outrageous dialogue in an otherwise treadmill production.

"[4] In 2021, the film received a comedic commentary by Michael J. Nelson, Kevin Murphy and Bill Corbett of RiffTrax, an offshoot of movie-mocking cult TV series Mystery Science Theater 3000.
