First grotesque anal grafted stills for Tom Six's HUMAN CENTIPEDE (Fright Fest 2009 thread)

"without him, the human centipede wouldn't be worth enduring."

Definitely. Although your first paragraph makes me worry about myself for having liked this movie.

this sense of artistic intention frames even the terrible performances of the female leads, making an effective comic device of the genuinely bad acting.

That fact makes the whole concept bearable imo.

There is absolutely no way in a million hells I will ever watch this film, I am so digusted by shit.

Oh you don't see any, the mouth-anus connections are always sealed.

aken as a whole, i hated it. i hated its tiresome (but still effectively depressing) nihilism and sadism. i hated that it devolved so quickly from delightful horror caricature to insanely grisly spectacle, and finally to a grinding form of audience punishment. it made me feel bad. coming away i not only felt spiritually crushed, i felt morose about humanity's prospects and worth. i slept badly and had terrible dreams.

See, I don't know what else people would have EXPTECTED from a film like this. No way I'm ever watching it.

i think this about all "torture-porn." i don't see the appeal. i know sometimes you have to be shocked to feel alive and appreciate beauty, but there's a limit, and films like this cross it.

otoh, i still endorse the idea of broken-social-scene being stitched together for the sequel.

they deserve it after that last album.

I know it's after the holidays, but I just found this...

on syfy tonight, sky viewers!

didn't look very good

its not very good.

*** SPOILARS *** people eat shit for a while, film ends *** SPOILARS ***

FEED HER!!!!!!

I really, really wish they hadn't started showing this on a channel my television receives. I worry that I'll start watching it "for a laugh" and will never sleep again.

the idea of this movie is worse than anything in this movie

You can't trick me like that.

yeah just watched this last night and it really is pretty tame

Dammit I was gonna go to the pub and now I'm torn

the sequel should be "human centipedes on a plane."

dude don't give it away

The BBFC has rejected the sexually violent, and potentially obscene DVD, The Human Centipede II (Full Sequence) This means that it cannot be legally supplied anywhere in the UK. The decision was taken by the Director, David Cooke and the Presidential Team of Sir Quentin Thomas, Alison Hastings and Gerard Lemos.

The Human Centipede II (Full Sequence) is a sequel to the film The Human Centipede (First Sequence), which was classified ‘18’ uncut for cinema and DVD release by the BBFC in 2010. The first film dealt with a mad doctor who sews together three kidnapped people in order to produce the ‘human centipede’of the title. Although the concept of the film was undoubtedly tasteless and disgusting it was a relatively traditional and conventional horror film and the Board concluded that it was not in breach of our Guidelines at ‘18’. This new work, The Human Centipede II (Full Sequence), tells the story of a man who becomes sexually obsessed with a DVD recording of the first film and who imagines putting the ‘centipede’ idea into practice. Unlike the first film, the sequel presents graphic images of sexual violence, forced defecation, and mutilation, and the viewer is invited to witness events from the perspective of the protagonist. Whereas in the first film the ‘centipede’ idea is presented as a revolting medical experiment, with the focus on whether the victims will be able to escape, this sequel presents the ‘centipede’ idea as the object of the protagonist’s depraved sexual fantasy.

David Cooke and pals need a good centipeding imo

surprising, after the first one you'd think they'd want to follow it through to the end

y'know, I didn't think the first one was terrible, but I think I'll skip this one.

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

censorship is a bad thing, kids

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

btw now I see what he meant by "the first film is my little pony compared to the sequel" but seriously, jesus christ

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.

My favorite act was the middle segment.

isnt it really more like cojoined twins than a centipede??

cojoned twins

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"

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."

ahahaha

so exactly that plus the bit about the feller wanking

and the barbed-wire raping

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?

i'd rather watch parks and recreation anything else

c'mon, it could be another Commitments.

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.

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
