I think this one also needs a "Human CentiPad" parody from South Park with Cartman in the role of Martin. Not to mention whatever bad stuff Six does, you can count on Parker and Stone amping up a level or two for animation.

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

As I posted on Instagram earlier this afternoon:



Since I can't see it in a theater, I'll see it in the comfort of my own home in 1080p with Dolby Digital 5.1 surround sound. I want to see and hear that shit splatter in the best way possible.

I have friends coming over to watch it while they bring the new Guinness and some pumpkin ales in tow. I'll post thoughts later.

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

To preface, I had massive problems with Tom Six's The Human Centipede. For what could've been a creative and fun concept, the film is very bland and boring. I get that Six was trying to go the more "psychological" horror route with his initial film, but you can't when the concept is three people who get connected ass-to-mouth. People expected to see gore. People expected to see shit. People wanted to be grossed out. What Six failed to deliver in his first film, delivers now in spades across round two. For good and for worse.

However, that's the first, major problem of The Human Centipede II: Full Sequence. The sequel doesn't merely contain a mere shift in tone. Oh boy! It contains a full, fucking swing of the pendulum. From what was originally a psychological horror film is now a balls-to-the-wall cinematic endeavor into torture porn. Six doesn't hold back as the sequel is pure cinematic anarchy. There's really no plot other than:

Retard who has parental issues attacks people in his parking garage job to sew them ass-to-mouth.

That's the entire film. Each progression (if you can call it that) the film makes is a new way for Six to treat his cast like absolute shit. Martin doesn't know how to sedate his victims, so what does he do? He shoots them or hits them over the head with a crowbar. I'm sorry, but with injuries like gun wounds or crowbars to the head, how the fuck are these people still alive to be apart of a human centipede towards the film's final act? Martin doesn't know proper medical procedures, so how are these poor bastards still alive? Massive blood loss? Trauma? Infections? Anything? I get the film is "100% Medically Inaccurate," but come on. Logic? Anyone?

That's another problem the film has. Logic. There's gaps of logic because Six has properly failed to setup the world this film exists in. Why? Six plays the film dead-on seriously which is a bad idea. This film should've played out like a Troma film where the crew can be as over-the-top as they want, but the audience is kept in check as there's a heart and soul to the craziness at hand. This film has no soul. To explain, let me detail a specific plot progression.

The audience meets Martin's psychologist near the beginning of the film who seriously looks like a ZZ Top Muppet. There's a brief cut away shot during this introduction where you can see his hand on Martin's knee. Maybe the guy's caring, who knows? Who actually cares? Later in the film, Martin notices a hooker riding a guy in his car. We then cut to inside the car where the hooker is now blowing the psychologist who's holed up in the backseat. What's the comment the psychologist makes while receiving head?

"I want to fuck that retarded boy in the ass."

This is one of the many instances where the film flatlines because Six doesn't know the tone his own film is going for. The line is unintentionally hilarious as the way it's delivered, but Six fails to interject humor throughout the piece because of the world he has setup. There's another moment within the last five minutes of the flick that I won't spoil, but my friends and I rolled our eyes at. Six plays this scene to be utterly hilarious, but it makes no fucking sense based upon what is occurring at that time. If there's one thing the film has going for it, it's how unintentionally hilarious it can be at times because Six is a terrible writer and director.

The only time the film manages to somewhat work is within the third act as it's the point the audience is actually waiting for. It's the creation and execution of the centipede. Six promises on his delivery of how gross the film can be. From people getting their teeth knocked out, bones being broken, ass cheeks getting ripped apart, close-ups of people's torn up shitty-bloody-whatever assholes, and shit spewing in technicolor across the set.; the last thirty minutes play out like a gorehound's wet dream. I've seen far worse in films before, but my friends who aren't prone to that level of gore kept looking away at the screen during key points.

Once it's all said and done, you just can't help but from feeling dirty. Why did I watch that? It's all fun and games until someone gets shit in their mouth. My biggest problem with the franchise is there's no endgame. You now have ten poor schmucks in a human centipede, so what's next? What do you do with it? Do you have it walk down Main Street? Do you have it rob a bank? Seriously, what's the fucking purpose of sewing these people ass-to-mouth? Both entries have tossed logic out of the window, so maybe I'm supposed to accept the fact there's no logic in a ten-person human centipede?

Whatever. At least it was a step up from the last entry. Maybe for The Human Centipede III, Six will have enough experience to now make a mediocre film.

$10.50. $10.50 that I'm never getting back.

If you have an Apple TV, iTunes has a 720p rental available for $6.99.

I know it will never happen, but Six needs to convince the financiers to pony up some extra money and do whatever it takes to sign Kim Kardashian for the Final Sequence, she could play the "lead role" of course! Given the publicity monger she is, I'm sure the right amount could convince her.

I agree with your review. I had to watch some comedy afterwards.

I was thinking the same thing while watching II. She would have been perfect for the "lead" centipede role instead of

During the "shit symphony," the shit is actually brown (whereas everything else retains its black-and-white-ness).

The problem with the ending is:
Spoiler:
Six doesn't state the ending was Martin's fantasy. It's left up for interpretation, but what throws the audience off is when you hear the kid crying in the car again and Martin gives that, "Wuh-woh George!" look on his face.


My second biggest problem with the ending is:
Spoiler:
If you're going to cockpunch the retard who's holding you captive and sewed nine people to your asshole, why wouldn't you grab the knife from him? No. Instead you're going to grab a funnel, shove it right up his ass, and put a centipede right down it? Really. Oh, this movie was a piece of shit.

The only positive thing that could come out of this movie is if I can get a .gif of Martin making the farting noises with his mouth and trying to get the everyone to shit in each other's mouths as if he was an orchestra conductor.

I have not seen the movie, but the descriptions of that scene alone makes me bust up. If the outlandish premise doesn't break the alleged serious tone, that sure as heck does.

If they really wanted to utilize Kim K., have the sequel be another
Spoiler:
sick fantasy
, but have the lead be played by Kris Humphries and centipede consist of all members of the Kardashian clan (including the mother), along with all members of Jersey Shore. What a sequence that would make!

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

Regrettably just watched this excrement. Laughably useless and terrible in every imaginable area. Absolutely fucking dreadful. How this fecal matter scores a 25% on RT when some of Shyamalan's films have obtained less is just mind-boggling. Not an ounce of worth in this schlock.

Looks like this will be hitting dvd and blu ray on Valentine's Day so that you can pick up a copy for the one you love.

Like I have said in the past, they need to make the premise of at least one of these movies a jilted guy getting revenge on his former GF and her current lover.

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

As I discovered the other day, IFC's theatrical and on-demand release edited out nearly three-to-four minutes of footage rather than the reported 30-to-45 seconds.

What I missed out on was shots of Martin's penis (during both the sandpaper masturbation and barbed-wire rape sequences) and the actual barbed-wire rape scene that actually went on for three whole minutes.

God bless IFC. Showing a rampant amount of graphic violence and gore alongside people shitting in each other's mouths is completely acceptable. However, when nudity and rape is concerned, the line has been crossed?

Not like I care to see the four minutes of footage, but I just don't see how one is okay and the other is not.

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

I decided to pass on this sh*t, no pun intended. This is the kind of sick, vile crap that I'd have trouble getting out of my mind. Then again, I can't imagine anyone getting any enjoyment out of this stuff. I like being scared as much as anyone. But this borders on illegal. Hell, this sounds worse than scat porn, and I can't even imagine how disgusting that would be.

I don't know if anyone has ever been scared by any films in this series.

If anything the films have a lot more in common with the Exploitation genre than the Horror genre.

I believe this was mentioned by another poster on the forums in a link they posted near the first Theatrical run of the film.

You can tell editing has been done mostly because the start of that rape scene and the scene afterward looks strange if you look closely.

Spoiler:
Namely because Martin starts the scene about to rape the Centipede (more implied), but then the next scene he is seeing pulling up his pants trying to chase the Pregnant woman

You can say whatever you want about this flick..........it's damn effective and just plain absoutely fucking disgusting and disturbing. The only part that took me out of the film was
Spoiler:

I mean come on, your missing your
Spoiler:
damn tongue
.

Grossest f'n movie ever man......it works even better in black and white as well - never want to see this again. Ugh, shit sticks with you a bit after watching as well.
