Solemplex To me, this movie is perfection.

ShangLuda Admirable film.

Borserie it is finally so absorbing because it plays like a lyrical road odyssey that’s also a detective story.

Juana what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

pronins This is a decent film of the shocker/horror, gore-fest genre. It delivers exactly what is promised in the trailer. I personally like it more than the other two films of the trilogy, it seems grittier and darker, in part due to being shot in black and white. The acting for this type of film is actually not bad, better than what I expected it to be. Now what I don't understand are all the negative reviews about this film, mainly accusing it of being extremely gory, violent, disgusting, etc. It seems as if the people who wrote such reviews thought they were going to watch another sequel to Lion King or something... The title alone should be a good indicator, along with the trailer (!) I mean, if you hate gory violent films, then watched the trailer for this film and still decided to go see it, you must have been either drunk or are a masochist. It's like a vegan who goes to a steakhouse and then writes a bad review about it because they eat meat there - what a surprise, right?... But for those who like horror and don't find this sort of material offensive, this is an entertaining, grotesque movie with lots of dark humor. I gave it 7 stars since it's not a great film really but, for what it is, it's fun and, very importantly, not pretentious, like so many horror films nowadays with directors who take themselves way too seriously.

suite92 The protagonist Martin is quite short, morbidly obese, and seemingly without friends of any sort. His job is as security at a dreary parking garage. During his copious free time, he obsesses on the first Human Centipede film. How is that for self-referential?Martin's goal is to create a centipede from 12 people rather than 3. The first big block of the film is about Martin's acquisition of enough live bodies. There is a parallel sideshow about his being sexually abused by his father, verbally abused by his mother (since father is in jail for the abuse), and his shrink's desire to bring him new abuse. Sigh. His mother tries to kill him herself. She also sets the psychotic neighbor (biker with loud music, lives above them) on him; he beats the daylights out of Martin with boots and fists. The list goes on well past these points.A bit over halfway through the film, Martin meets Miss Yennie (the actress, not the character) from the first film. There is a clash of worlds. She expects to discuss a role in a new film. She gets to see Martin's handiwork instead.Does anyone get out alive?As a film about crushing the marginalised, this is fairly effective. As an extreme horror film, this is a complete failure. The endless use of the first film destroys any sense of engaging the viewers: it is all explicitly fakery.

dutchchocolatecake I think we need a discussion about genres since anything dark or disturbing is being labeled as "horror." I remember when horror movies were about being scared. I remember when movies were made in such a way that you would worry about going to sleep at night or the movie forced you to look over your shoulder as you walked down the road because *insert supernatural bad guy* might get you.Now horror is just about the shock value. Even the corniest horror movies have elements of degradation, violation, and repulsiveness which did not exist some twenty years ago.There is something seriously wrong with the world when someone can not only think up this kind of movie, but get money to actually make it. Someone opened their wallet and said "Sure, I'll help finance a movie about sewing people's lips to someone else's anus. How much do you need?" I feel bad for the actors who are obviously looking for work experience, still, it's hard for me to believe that they didn't think twice before selling themselves out like this.It all feels like sado-masochism to the extreme, where people are enjoying violating people and making people feel disgusted in the extreme.

ArchieIsCool So what can I say about this film, it was dark, disturbing and repulsive in parts but I had to watch till the end. The lead actor who plays Martin plays him well a damaged man with mental issues probably brought on by being sexually abused by his father and his mother blames him for her husband being in jail. Martin never speaks throughout the film he coughs and cries he lives for his obsession to The Human Centipede film, he has a scrap book which he keeps as his favourite item until his mother tears it up in anger. His rage at this ends in him caving her face in with his crowbar which he uses to knock out his victims in the car park. His job as a car park attendant gives him choices to pick his victims to make his version of the human centipede, once he dumps them in a empty warehouse all bound up with duct tape when he gets his 12 people he then tries to copy what he has seen on the film, here it's a bit different as in the human centipede 1 the doctor actually medically joined digestive systems to each one but Martin lets say joins them up using staples to join mouth to anus so the only way to make them defecate is an injection of laxative to each one and then he found this most entertaining but surely the ones that had to swallow this foulness could have choked.
