Head

Head (1968) is a psychedelic music comedy you can watch online on iFILM. It's the big-screen debut of pop band The Monkees, and it's no concert film and no plot — just a collage of songs, sketches and absurd vignettes with no real beginning or end.

The band tumbles from one episode into the next: trapped inside a giant television, breaking the fourth wall, taking jabs at the Vietnam War and at the studio that packaged four musicians into a product. Davy Jones, Micky Dolenz, Michael Nesmith and Peter Tork openly mock their own squeaky-clean image. Boxer Sonny Liston, Frank Zappa and a very young Teri Garr drift through the chaos.

The script came from director Bob Rafelson and Jack Nicholson, a couple of years before both men reshaped American cinema. The movie bombed on release, alienating the TV show's fans, and only later turned into a cult oddity — one of the strangest pop films of its decade. Tailor-made for anyone who loves 1960s counterculture and movies with no rulebook. Stream Head (1968) online on iFILM.
