Default Review of Human Centipede . . . .

I found a very nice review of the film that seems to capture your interest and attention . . .

Quote:
I have no idea where to start but let me begin with this: If you’re not a fan of this genre of disturbing, sick and twisted meaningless films, then don’t bother. To be honest the film serves no purpose at all and it does not pretend to be artistic in the general sense of the word. It is what it is for better or worse. That being said, and me being a fan of this type of movies, would I recommend it to someone? I don’t think so. Would I say it was a masterpiece? Nope. But I sure loved it. I thought Dieter Laser (who played Dr. Heiter) was born to play this rule. He even looks the part before you see him act. Again, if you don’t mind the sickness, then you should go for it.
Y'all have at it . . . .

Hmm... Just watched the first one. Bizarre plot and idea, you have to wonder where a movie director comes up with an idea as twisted as that???

Can't say it was sadistic, I've seen movies much harsher than that. In a nutshell, it was just foul and that's pretty much the whole point of the movie and it's goal.

Can't say I enjoy a movie of any type like this one but I will watch them just for the shock factor and out of curiosity just how twisted a human mind can be. I think "Hostel" and all the "Saw" films were more shocking.
