Health Insurance The Brain That Wouldn't Die (Joke) Ad

Tonight it's severed head horror movies on TCM, and right now they're showing the great craptacular monsterpiece: The Brain That Wouldn't Die (directed by "Mean" Joseph Green). And seeing the miraculous medical experiments in this movie, and knowing that it's only a matter of a few short weeks before we'll have brains that won't die, I think it's time for a health insurance ad based upon this great classic movie.

So here's how this would work: In rapid succession, we'd see the accident, the mad doctor arriving at his secret laboratory, and the head of the woman on the platter with all the liquids going in and out, and the announcer would say: "We can't promise that your brain will never die, but (whatever health insurance company) will cover whatever healthcare you need, no matter how specialized!" (Then the woman's head would use her telepathic abilities to get the monster in the closet to attack the doctor, and as she giggles, saying: "I told you to let me die...!", the announcer would say: "What you do with your extended life is up to you!")

This is The Brain That Wouldn't Die, for the uninitiated:
