This movie scared me something awful when I was a little kid. It was released in 1962. From Wikipedia:
The Brain That Wouldn't Die (also known as The Head That Wouldn't Die) is a 1962 American science fiction horror film directed by Joseph Green and written by Green and Rex Carlton.[1] The film was completed in 1959 under the working title The Black Door but was not theatrically released until May 3, 1962, when it was released under its renamed title on a double bill with Invasion of the Star Creatures.[2][3]
The main plot focuses upon a mad doctor who develops a means to keep human body parts alive. He keeps a woman's severed head alive for days, and keeps a lumbering, misshapened brute (one of his earlier failed experiments) imprisoned in a closet.

Got to me too!Especially the scene where the guy's arm is ripped off through the little door in the closet.
I first saw this while in Italy. Our hosting friend said it was the worst sci-fi ever made... Including the two titles in the credits. We watched it with another friend from Thailand. After it was over she said "That's IT?????" It is the worst ever, except for that one about cowboys and monsters with the unforgettable line "Let's mosey back to the el rancho, Pancho"
