I am looking for a name of a horror movie that was the most frightening as a kid. It was shown in Philadelphia somewhere between 1977-1982 most likely on Dr Shocks show that featured b-list movies. The movie was a period piece and in color. A man was executed by guillotine for a crime he didn’t commit. Either his wife/girlfriend’s father had initiated the execution or a jealous rival to the wife/girlfriend. After the guillotining, the head and body and recovered by the girlfriend/wife. She places the head on a bureau in their living space and the head instructs her on how to seek revenge. Sometimes, the body gives her clues. For example, there is a scene where the body writes the name “Hans” on the floor in blood. I don’t remember much else – I was too frightened to finish the movie and the memory of the movie truly haunted me and my siblings for years.
