You need to send a message to someone? You wanna show someone you mean business? I'm gonna make you an offer you can't refuse.

Check out this life-size decapitated horse head. This stuffed pillow is a perfect gag gift for fans of The Godfather. It's also a good way to convince some young turk on your list.

It's hard to imagine snuggling up to a dead horse's dead but I suppose this thing might be good for that too. You can buy it Kropserkel for $45 stuffed or $35 or an unstuffed version. Gallons of fake horse blood not included.

The Coppola Restoration of The Godfather trilogy comes to DVD on Sept. 23. You can also get it on Blu-ray so you can experience the horse head scene in high definition.

OK, now get outta here, kid! Ya botherin' me. Kapeesh?

Editor's Note: "Swag Bag" is our not-so-regular column of cool, movie-inspired collectibles, toys, and clothing. We like to consider it our version of the gift bags given to annual attendees of the Oscars. The big difference is that we don't have a prestigious awards ceremony to give away this stuff so we simply list the findings here. If you have a suggestion for this feature, please send it to us.
