I saw the original Human Centipede (please don’t ask me why). It was okay, for a slightly weird and depraved horror movie. So I guess I felt compelled to watch the sequel.
It’s a sequel in the same way the Blair Witch Project 2 is a sequel to the first. The Human Centipede 2 starts off showing that the first part was a film and focuses on the creepiest man in London, aka Martin, obsessing about it and wanting to re-enact it.
The film’s first half is like a London-based version of David Lynch’s Eraserhead – full of weird (and horrible) characters all shot in black and white (I don’t know why the film is shot in black and white, but it is). The second half gives you what you came for – assuming you came for the gore and general distaste.
Now, I’m well aware that horror is meant to scare/disgust/disturb etc, so I don’t normally mention the acting ability, but, during those rare moments of dialogue (and there aren’t many – it could practically be a silent film) the actors really are pretty bad. Perhaps it’s best that they spend most of their time screaming?
What’s it like? It’s hard to say. If you want to be disturbed, the film succeeds. However, if you want a story – forget it. The third act is pretty hard to watch and I found myself looking away a couple of times (but then I did have a knee operation myself – you’ll have to watch the film to understand).
Fair play to the filmmakers for finding the creepiest leading man in the world and putting him in the sickest film, but don’t expect much of a plot. There are numerous plot holes that don’t make much sense or aren’t too realistic. I hear the censors made the filmmakers make 32 cuts – perhaps that would explain why a few things don’t add up?
I’m not off to watch something nice and cuddly like a Disney movie to remind me there’s more to life than slicing people apart and stapling them to each other.- Was this review helpful to you?

By a customer , 18 Jun 2013I had to turn it off after 20 minutes. Mood varied between bored and creeped out - the original movie at least had some intelligence to it. This one is just gross.- Was this review helpful to you?

Huge Disappointment
By KingDub884 (10 reviews) , 13 Jun 2013What a let down. I genuinely enjoyed the first film in the series and hope for a return to form with the third. Gone was everything that made the original so enjoyable, all the charm has been extracted and it all feels so empty and lacking.- Was this review helpful to you?

Dont expect too much...
By cookieinblueboots (9 reviews) , 01 Jun 2013Martin is a creepy, short, fat mommas boy who is obsessed with The Human Centipede movie and fantasies about creating his own 12 person centipede....sound like an ok sequel to THC but no, its a black and white, almost silent (apart from grunts, screams and squeltching) british disaster. The film drags on and tends to jump from kidnapping to kidnapping without much plot. Then the horror (which, lets face it, weve stuck with this terrible plot for) happens in one fell swoop of diarrhoea, rape and staples and climaxes suddenly. Id class this film as one of the worst ive seen and the horror part for me was sitting for through it bored and awaiting something that never materialized.- Was this review helpful to you?

If I ever meet the director, I'll punch him in the face
By a customer , 08 May 2013The only purpose to this film is to disgust the veiwer, which it doesn't even do well as horror disgust through blood and gore which this doesn't do- it instead does it with crap. including a scene where crap literally flies at the screen and I can't think of a better metaphor for this film.- Was this review helpful to you?
