lol you mean like all the old Friday the 13th, Nightmare on Elm Street, and Halloween movies? Yeah, those were all implied...
Not really the point, I guess I put it the wrong way. There's a huge gap between a slasher flick and sewing peoples asses to other peoples faces so that can crap down their throats.
It's the sadism that really gets me. Sure flicks like "Last House on the Left" did it too but they were horrible exploitation devices no different than these films.
And using rape as a horror element is getting out of hand too.

You don't think Rape is horrific?
It's very horrific. In some ways it's worse than murder because the victim has to live with the horror the rest of their lives. My point is when did it become as common as stabbings/slashings in horror movies?

It is an incredibly stupid movie, I still wish I could get that hour and a half of my life back. Don't waste your time with the movie, you'd be better off punching yourself in the face.

I agree with you. The older films presented the acts of violence as something horrific - modern day films present them as something to revel in...

Oh well, I watched The 1982 version of The Thing to commiserate. I was in my glory for 1 1/2 hours there.Just watch Paranormal Activity 1 on this recommendation. Very good! I liked it a lot. Thanks.
Hooray another needlessly over the top spectacle to take the place of substance.
I wonder if Dane Cook directed.

Sequel
As of August 2011, Six was already working on a sequel, to be titled The Human Centipede 3 (Final Sequence). Six has revealed that the film will again be very different from the previous part but will also start with its ending, so in the end the parts of the trilogy would form one continuous film about four and a half hours long, making it similar to a centipede. He also stated that the third film will answer some "lasting questions," will have a strange happy ending, and will be the last of the series as he does not want to do any more Centipede films.[13] In an interview with DreadCentral.com, Six said the third film will "make the last one look like a Disney film. We're going to shoot the third film entirely in America, and it's going to be my favourite... It's going to upset a lot of people."[32

I saw Full Sequence. I'll be honest and say I found it perhaps less impactful than the first. The premise of the first was absurd and to see it in on film left some memories. The second is certainly more violent and vile, but I felt detached from it. I think the lack of ANY dialogue by the protagonist and the majority of "dialogue" from everyone else being simply screams and moans made it difficult to empathize with them.
Possibly another problem with this is that it was so damn violent, with so many people being clobbered by a crowbar in the head and/or killed that there was as close to no suspense as I've ever seen in a horror movie.
I've heard of that movie Serbia and I don't want to see it because it will possibly feel too real and thus be traumatic, but Human Centipede 2 was just so ridiculous and packed with nasty naughtiness that it was easy to see as fiction.
BTW, the "baby scene" at least what I saw was simply this: *SPOILER*: the pregnant woman escapes the warehouse near the end of the movie and gets into a car. As she's trying to start the car she is in labor and births her baby into the wheel well of the car while Martin is trying to get into the car. He is unsuccessful and she manages to get it started and drive off with her baby, thereby being the only victim of the lot to escape. Here - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Human_Centipede_2_(Full_Sequence) - it talks of the baby being killed. I did not see that. And the "sand paper" scene was simply removal of sandpaper and reaching into pants; there is no nudity during the scene.
I'm starting to think the US version has been toned down perhaps...

I watched this because of this thread and found it to be hugely disappointing... Any Saw movie is more hardcore than this BY FAR, both in terms of raw gore and psychological impact, so yeah...
Not sure what the point of the movie was anyway, I mean, if it fails as a gore fest than what else is there?
People threw up over this? LOL I find it hard to believe... If anything it makes me laugh

Holy cow, we joke about HC at work all the time, and the only version I saw was the south park parody.. hahahah
my friend actually rented the first one and his parent threaten to kick him out for renting "garbage" like that... lol..
