I stumbled accross it and managed for about 2 minutes before switching off. Very odd. 😯

How on earth did they pitch that to the backers?

Brace yourself...

[b]The Human Centipede 3 will feature a 500+ human centipede.[/b]

The Human Centipede 3 is back in business, now that actor Dieter Laser has been confirmed as the lead.

Production on the horror threequel had been delayed due to a legal battle between director Tom Six’s production company and Laser. Six Entertainment Company has now dropped the lawsuit.

I watched it on love film, for the sake of saying "I've seen it".
It was rubbish.
But...I've seen it.

Seen it before. Subject matter aside, it basically a pretty poor film anyway. Bad plot, bad acting. I think
it was just piggy backing the whole torture porn genre, which seemed to be popular a few years back.

A Serbian Film is an all round nastier film, but also much better made. well directed, good acting, good soundtrack. Nasty nasty subject matter, but technically, very good.

[url= http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Human_Centipede_2_(Full_Sequence)#Box_Office ]The film grossed $5,824 in Iceland and $1,511 in the United Kingdom[/url]

Which would suggest it did get a somewhat limited release.

The DVD was banned for a few months, [url= http://www.empireonline.com/news/story.asp?NID=32157 ]until 32 cuts (2m:37s) were made.[/url]

Some of the bits, literally, edited out are [url= http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Human_Centipede_2_(Full_Sequence)#Classification_refusal_in_United_Kingdom ]listed on the Wiki.[/url]

I had the misfortune of watching. A bit sick and very gross. No desire to watch a sequel.

... But maintains a healthy outlook on life with the aid of prescription drugs, much to the centipedes disapproval.

The sort of film that really has no point what so ever once. It's a complete one trick pony.

A Clockwork Orange had some very uncomfortable bits in it as did Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (swedish version,not seen the hollywood one yet) but they weren't there just for the sake of it.

I was actually watching Pan's Labyrinth at that time last night.
Haven't seen it before and it was brilliant.
I haven't got time for crap films!

...although, this is very hypocritical of The Centipede, as he is addicted to Curly Wurlys. So when it comes to judging The Squirrel, ironically, he hasn't got a leg to stand on.
