Why black and white? I wonder if that was intended from the get go or that was a choice that was made to get at least approval for showing it in the theaters.

Human Centipede 2: Backdoor Boogaloo
Considering the US, I'm sure IFC and Six knew the film would be released without a rating. Maybe for international distribution (despite the UK already banning it)? Or maybe the practical effects suck and black and white helps hide it better? Who knows! If Six shot the film on digital, that means the original master is that of a film shot in color... so maybe a possible bonus feature on the DVD.

I expect nothing but shit jokes with a possible incest or rape joke thrown into the mix from now until the film's release.

Re: Human Centipede 2: The Full Sequence (or the deuce the world's been waiting for)

I just can't see anyone reading about some of the stuff in this "movie" (ie: jacking off with sandpaper, rape with barb wire, etc,) black comedy or not, and saying: "This I gotta see!".

But I know some people will. I'm not sure what to think about that.

Re: Human Centipede 2: The Full Sequence (or the deuce the world's been waiting for)

I love how all the negative reviews are basically bashing it for giving them exactly what they all complained was lacking in the first movie

I remember many here expressing disppointment in how the first one wasn't graphic enough. It will be interesting to see if they - like the critics - really didn't mean that.

It's like a big "Fuck you!" movie and at the same time a parody of both the fans and how the detractors view the fans

I love how the trailer is followed by an ad featuring happy children.


One thing they seem to be making abundantly clear is that this version could NOT happen and that Martin is no doctor; his surgery methods seem very crude.

I'm waiting/hoping that the Lumiere in San Francisco puts it as a Midnight Movie. Not showing up on their October 6th schedule yet

The list posted mentions that the Lumiere Theatre in San Francisco would have the film starting today, but the website does not have showtimes up for the film through the next week.

No idea what is going on.

Thanks for the heads up. Look like Midnight for both today and tomorrow.

I really wish the change in theater was posted somewhere. Ugh!

maybe this has been stated before, but what's with the news that IFC did some of it's own pruning of some of the more extreme scenes - is that true?

Nice! I'll watch it at home, just like I did the first one. That way my gf can periodically leave the room, then poke her head in long enough to tell me I'm sick for watching it.

Hmm...that's the first I've heard of it. Though when I looked up news stories, apparently after folks saw the Australian Teaser, word got out that the U.S version might be cut when compared.

Looks like I will be catching a Midnight Showing of this with one of my best friends. Should be fun

Anyone in Chicago seeing this tonight? I successfully managed to find not a single person willing to see this with me.

Re: Human Centipede 2: The Full Sequence (or the deuce the world's been waiting for)

here's what a New York Times article stated about Six and cutting the film for IFC's theatrical release:

Spoiler:
For the American release of the film Mr. Six has made concessions, removing a scene in which Martin wraps his penis in barbed wire before raping a woman at the end of the centipede. (Mr. Sehring of IFC Films said: “We really worked with Tom to come up with what we felt would be the most commercial version of the movie. Did I think it was necessary, or did we think it was necessary to tell the story? No.”)

Mr. Six said he was hopeful that an unedited version of “Human Centipede 2” would also be released, and is already planning a third and final installment. “In the end,” he said, “all three films can be literally connected as one film of four and a half hours.”


I personally hate it when distributor's stick there head (pun intended) where it isn't needed - specifically in the editing of a film for "more commercial appeal/acceptance"

Thanks so much for posting that Giles!

I don't like it either. Also wait a minute, did IFC pick up Human Centipede 2 for possible commercial appeal? They obviously picked up the first 2 films for pure sales on shock. They aren't trying to convince the masses to come see a more commercially viable film about people getting grafted to each others assholes.

I looked at the cast list and there is 1 returning cast member from the 1st film. Not sure if she has a huge role in the film, or if it was like Jay Hernandez showing up in Hostel 2.
