This is the most disgusting movie I have ever seen. When I watched Hostel in the theater I actually dry heaved during one of the scenes, but while watching this movie I was dry heaving almost the entire time. Tom Six has successfully directed a film that will easily find a place in the "Gross-Out" category of horror film making. This movie is right up there with movies like Cannibal Holocaust and Salo: 120 Days of Sodom.


So you have a doctor who wants to create a Human Centipede. To accomplish this task first he collects three victims and then preforms ass to mouth surgery joining them all together. If you haven't seen the movie I just want you to go ahead and picture what that would look like. It is disgusting and it doesn't seem like it would work but Tom Six assures everyone that the movie is 100% medically accurate.

The movie doesn't really have any "Gory" scenes, it is all pretty much just left up to your mind. One scene that really makes me gag is when the Human Centipede is being taken for a walk outside and the head person of the creature has to... ahem... do his business. Well again, just think of how something like that would have to go down.

If you could somehow get past how disgusting this movie is then you would find a really well written story. The film is very well made and it serves as a great wake-up call to the horror movie makers of today. Enough with the family friendly horror already; lets get back to the anything goes era of horror. Watch at your own risk.
