Is it like the readers of horror novels? Is it something primal?
I don't know. I'm kind of a horror addict myself, so I find myself asking this question more and more these days. I just watched Hostel I and II, after hearing about them for years. I actually don't even consider those movies to be true "horror" - they're like horror pornography. I feel the same way about Last House on the Left - it's just degradation without any redeeming qualities, IMO. I'm sure people will argue with me on that, though.
I say all of this, and then I end up watching these movies anyway, out of curiosity. I guess there's just always that need to know, it's like we can't help ourselves.
And honestly - this whole centipede thing can be done? I just don't see how people can live on poop alone.

Also, I refuse to watch The Serbian Film simply because I can't do the infant-sex thing - that's just a line I refuse to cross. Yuck.
It's my understanding that he actually kept them alive with injected suppliments, and I assume antibiotics...which give you diarrhea.
Okay, grossed out again.
Oh god that's just too gross.

I am so sick of everybody dissing this idea. I mean have any of you actually had your mouth sewn to someone else's anus? Have you ever had a bowel movement pass through your mouth via an intestine?
Didn't think so.
Stop being so judgmental until you've crawled a mile on someone else's shattered kneecaps.
I've had a bowel movement pass through my mouth, but my mouth wasn't sewn to his butt...
WHO ARE YOU TO JUDGE ME?!?!?!

The jokes just write themselves.
I'm laughing and throwing up in my mouth at the same time.

Ok I just watched the trailer for this and thought it was an advertisement for the first 30 seconds. Bad acting, much?
I loled at the "100% medically accurate stamp." I expected more from IFC

Finally saw this movie, but everything's kind of been said already. The "feed her, feed her" line made me gag.
Tom Six talks part II
Btw, take a sec and click on some of the highlighted links embedded within the article. You can see a human centipede cat toy and a Barbie doll centipede among other things.
I can say it has a centipede of 12 people. I want to keep it a surprise.
I recently watched this movie (twice, actually). It was horrifying but so morbidly fascinating... I'm really glad I saw it. It made me think about what I would do if I was put in that situation.
just downloaded it from itunes......

little - what WOULD you do? Honestly, I think I'd go the way of the Japanese guy..
I don't think you'd have a choice about what you'd do.
This movie was just referenced on Breaking In
South Park is featuring it on the show this Wednesday, May 18th
ok, tried watching this coming back from London. Got halfway through and noticed a child was watching my iPad between the seats. Turned it off to finish later, and then the rental had expired.....have to say was not impressed, and a bit grossed out, and almost nothing grosses me out...
The British Board of Film Classification refused to rate Part II.
The link has their reasoning which is obviously spoiler heavy.
But this has never been about "spoilers", it's always been about morbid curiosity.
The synopsis (and a few described scenes) is pretty sick, and utterly disappointing. It feels like Six was in such a frenzy to be as offensive as possible that he lost the dark humor and playful send up of horror conventions that made Part I at least tolerable.
Of course this is just based on the snippets and general plot details so who knows?
Pearl Clutchers spill the plot of Centipede II
^ Just read that article. Wow. I have no words. I will probably still watch it as soon as it is on Netflix though...
Honestly after reading that, I have no interest in seeing it. A director makes a movie about a man masturbating to another of his films? Sounds like someones got a high opinion about himself. And the rest of it just sounds like he wants to take torture porn (something that needs to go away already) to a new level. Even as a horror junkie, this just sounds gross and pointless and I'm definitely going to be skipping it.
I have no desire to see either of these movies.
I'm with you Jordy. It sounds lazy. Which is perplexing since Six made such a big deal about how this was going to be a trilogy.
But Part II only has a tenuous connection to the original (it seems). I mean you'd think if he had a 3 movie story mapped out he wouldn't have killed off the doctor in the first movie. The riff on mad scientists and their Frankenstein creatures was kind the whole point.
Exploring sexual deviance and its relation to violence sounds more like he was trying to out-do A Serbian Film.
