I actually liked the first one but yeah. I'll skip the sequel, too. Blech

The Human Centipede II (Full Sequence), tells the story of a man who becomes sexually obsessed with a DVD recording of the first film
based on a true story

I mean I'm hardly the sort to call for the banning of something I've never seen but I'm having trouble just reconciling the description of this

censor more things, we tried the censor-nothing approach and it got us Human Centipede

saw the first, loved the opening act (just for dieter laser as dr. heiter), but hated the rest.
no interest in the sequel.

imagine the casting pitch for this
"hey, we need you to get naked and wrap your laughing gear around someone's arsehole while someone else's face is strapped to your bum while a guy in a trucker hat sits back and watches you while he masturbates, but it's not a porno, oh and we need you to be like that for 12 weeks"
― It's not like we could go to Islam (Autumn Almanac), Tuesday, 7 June 2011 00:39 (twelve years ago) link
In all seriousness I gotta wonder how this script got pitched to the actors involved. "Yeah so for the better part of the film your mouth is going to be 'surgically attached' to Leslie's anus (don't worry we'll put a pad there or something) and Jim's mouth will be attached to your anus. Great concept, right? Obv you won't have a lot of dialogue for that part of the movie."

id rather watch parks and recreation
i don't really wanna watch this but now i'm not allowed to watch it i sort of wanna watch it. also the first one wasn't all that but if we can't have horror flicks setting reprehensible new lows in bad taste and nihilism every now and then then what's the point?

From James Mitchell's BBFC link upthread:
The principal focus of The Human Centipede II (Full Sequence) is the sexual arousal of the central character at both the idea and the spectacle of the total degradation, humiliation, mutilation, torture, and murder of his naked victims. Examples of this include a scene early in the film in which he masturbates whilst he watches a DVD of the original Human Centipede film, with sandpaper wrapped around his penis, and a sequence later in the film in which he becomes aroused at the sight of the members of the ‘centipede’ being forced to defecate into one another’s mouths, culminating in sight of the man wrapping barbed wire around his penis and raping the woman at the rear of the ‘centipede’.

what if he did another sequel that was just someone else watching THC2 and doing the same thing, but with a baby in the room

Pedestrian thought: If it didn't get banned we wouldn't have even known it had got made, probably.
― resonate with awesomeness (jel --), Tuesday, 7 June 2011 09:58 (twelve years ago) link
Yeah he wants publicity by getting it banned all over the place, that much is clear. Why else would he soak investors' money into something that's so comprehensively in breach of p much every classification office everywhere?

anyone who thinks that THIS is too much should read the synopsis of "A Serbian Film"
that said this is definitely the SECOND most depraved film I can think of, and yes I strangely want to see it

― low-rent black gangster nicknamed Bootsy (DJP), Tuesday, 7 June 2011 16:24 (twelve years ago) link
part of me wonders if this was the plan all along? the first one was not really a bad movie, but it's not really shocking or anything past the original concept, even kind of boring, and I felt like Six had more talent than what he displayed in the movie. right from the start he was saying things like "wait till you see the sequel"
― frogbs, Tuesday, 7 June 2011 16:27 (twelve years ago) link
well... yeah, clearly THIS is the movie dude really wanted to make
I think it is perfectly legitimate to question whether it is actually worth watching

off the top of my head I would say salo and sweet movie are two I know but I don't know how they compare to serbian film

yeah that is precisely why I mostly avoid modern horror movies; I thought the plot synopsis of Audition was too far, and this shit stampedes WAAAAAY past that line

Salo isn't half as bad as its reputation imo, and I don't think Pasolini's main aim was to gross out the kids.

i'm actually kind of curious about how the plot of part ii works -- like, to me 'guy watches the first movie, attempts to actually make it work in real life (this does not work), jerks off to it' seems like such an obvious attack on people who actually enjoy the first film that the idea of anyone simply getting off on the second one is .. weird
that said ppl who are horror obsessives have far more complicated relationships with this sort of thing than simply getting off on it (or simply 'enjoying' it, i guess, for that matter)

We emailed Tom Six for a response to the BBFC's decision and received the following quote, which we present here in full. The censoring of the F-word, ironically, is Six's.
“Thank you BBFC for putting spoilers of my movie on your website and thank you for banning my film in this exceptional way. Apparently I made an horrific horror-film, but shouldn't a good horror film be horrific? My dear people it is a f****cking MOVIE. It is all fictional. Not real. It is all make-belief. It is art. Give people their own choice to watch it or not. If people can't handle or like my movies they just don't watch them. If people like my movies they have to be able to see it any time, anywhere also in the UK.”
― thomp, Tuesday, 7 June 2011 17:00 (twelve years ago) link

― low-rent black gangster nicknamed Bootsy (DJP), Tuesday, 7 June 2011 17:01 (twelve years ago) link
the first one did make a big deal out of how the science was "medically sound" which I'm guessing Six doesn't believe but it's a big step towards the second one

re "A Serbian Film":
As he is dying, Vukmir praises Milos's actions, saying "that's cinema." Confronting the final bodyguard, Miloš knocks off his sunglasses and discovers that the man is missing an eye. He tries to shoot him but finds out that the gun is empty. Miloš jams his erect penis into the man's empty eye socket, killing him.[9]
