I've never thought about their backs before. It may be hard to believe but they weren't the frightening thing about that film. There's a scene where Faruza (Dorothy) gets locked in the tower with Tock and Jack and they make a plan to escape. Jack tells them that Princess Mombi has this "magic powder of life", that makes anything inanimate come to life, and where it's stored. Faruza goes into Mombi's bedroom to retrieve the key and to her horror (mine as well) Mombi is headless. She gets the key without waking Mombi up and goes into this room where she has countless of sleeping heads that she stole from the female citizens of OZ!
The magic powder is all the way at the end of the corridor and it's stored in a cabinet with Mombi's true "head". While Faruza is trying to get the powder she ends up doing something that wakes up Mombi's true head and the other heads which start screaming unison. She tries to run out of there and Mombi's headless body comes and tries to stop her. Of course, she makes it out of there and manages with some difficulty to make to the sofa come alive. I was on the edge of my seat with that.
There's another scene where the Gnome King tries to kill Faruza and her friends and the her chicken lays an egg which rolls down his throat and kills him.
How do you wish humans had evolved
